Blue Marlin Hotel completes revamp

THE revamp of the Blue Marlin
Hotel in Scottburgh on KZN’s
South Coast is complete.
In April 2013, Dream
Vacation Club entered into
a partnership with the
owners and took over the
management of the hotel and
the extensive renovation work
of the R12m first phase, which
included the revamp of all the
common/public areas and the
pool.
Phase two, which is now
complete, included the
renovation of the majority of
the rooms at a cost of R14m.
“Upgrading the Blue Marlin is
the first and most significant
tourism infrastructure
development in the area in
the past 10 years,” says
director, Sandie Curtis. “It will
have a huge impact on the
local economy. South Africans
are looking for a good-quality
holiday experience that is
affordable and we already have
a lot of interest from the UK.
Saga Holidays in the UK has
contracted a block of rooms
from January, and these are
filling up quickly.
