The St. Regis offered tours of the property that members of the business community enjoyed while catching up with one another.
Tour guides highlighted the spa and restaurant offerings, as well as the water-based fun available for guests.
Lorna Kirwan, the resort's director of sales and marketing, said she was glad to welcome members for their first networking event there. She highlighted the available spa and restaurant services, particularly The Monkey Bar which pays homage to the beloved watering hole at Colony Beach and Tennis Resort, which was on the property before St. Regis' completion.
"We have seven different food and beverage outlets here, and five are available for guests as well as for the wider community," she said.
