NEWS FLASH!
We have come into the 21st Century. Wireless internet is now available at the Belair!! Just buy a card at the Front Desk and sit in your apartment, on the patio, the terrace, restaurant, beach, etc. and be in contact with the world or use our computer.
Dear Friends,
Something is always happening at the Belair! We are continuously
upgrading, maintaining, replacing, etc.
Hurricane Omar in October took its toll. We have replaced the pool
deck, the towel booth, the plants, the foot baths on the beach level
apartments, some furniture, lighting, etc. and power washed the
building. Some things will be done when the occupancy goes down.
We hope to be able to finish the shower stalls in the small bathroom
this year in all the apartments. We continue to replace some bedroom
furniture. We have finished the counters in the kitchens. We will
finish the tiling of the first floor hallway as well as repairing of the
stairwells.
Gingerbread Cafe is still doing great. Ruphus and his staff continue to
keep us all smiling with their delicious food and wonderful service.
The Government which was supposed to dredge the harbor last year and
bring the sand here still has not done so but they say they will do it
this year. We repaired the sea groins after the hurricane so we can
help Mother Nature keep the sand on our beach.
We have many new projects which we are starting this year. Such as
replacing the air-conditioning thermostats in the apartments, replacing
the faucets in the kitchen as well as in the bathrooms. We finally
found a company who says they can repair our sliding doors so they will
be repaired so that they slide easier. We have gotten an upgrade for
our sewage plant to help us keep "green". We will finish tiling the
first floor corridor. Unlike other resorts we renovate some items in
the hotel every year. In this manner we will hopefully never have
assessments, huge jumps in maintenance etc. for modernizations and
replacements.
