NASSAU, BAHAMAS – Royal Caribbean Group Bahamas, is making steady progress on their Beach Club on Paradise Island.

The project has grabbed headlines in recent weeks due to concerns over its environmental impact and questions over the number of foreign workers at the development.

The media toured the 17-acre sight today, where we met construction fully underway.

President Philip Simon says they’re almost the halfway mark of completion.

In recent weeks we’ve covered extensively the concerns raised by land developer Toby Smith, who had eyed the property for a development of his own.

Janeen Bullard, principal of an environment consultancy, says they were tasked to ensure no rules were broken.

A walk through the site shows extensive work being done. The foundation poured for about all of the buildings, along with major work being done on pools and other small buildings.

Just under 300 construction workers, that’ve made it happen.

Site construction project manager, Ronald Forbes explains the scope of works.

Forbes says, “Currently in my background, we have the family pool which is the family chill and party pool just west of that we have are on site, concrete batch plant that allows us to work a little better had we had the option to take the concrete and west of that we have our first restaurant, which is restroom number one in this year. We have two restrooms and one QSR does underdevelopment currently and I were making significant progress on that.
