When the end of last year saw the Capella Hotels and Resorts take over the management of the former Discovery at Marigot Bay in the popular Caribbean yacht charter location – Saint Lucia, one of the top priorities the bespoke ultra-luxury hotel management company undertook was the transformation of its private luxury yacht marina into a world-class port capable of providing yacht owners with a full-service, five-star experience.

By end of summer 2014, the renovated Capella Marina at Marigot Bay will deliver high-end marina dining, entertainment and boutique retail shops featuring fine jewelers, a gourmet food, wine & beverage store and local famed artisans. The new luxury marina facilities will rival those of the Americas and Europe, and create a new exciting dynamic for both the marina and resort guests to enjoy.
