Anyone on island that can confirm they are actually open? And they will never get those kind of prices. For that kind of money one can book La Samanna and have money left over!

Is that photo really Dawn Beach? It looks a lot like our view at Little Bay. I’m 100% sure that is the west side of Little Bay. I just compared it to photos I took last year.

Ocean View room with a balcony in January is only $1629.....a night. Includes a $75 resort fee. A wee bit pricey
Edit: just noticed my post from a few weeks ago...it is $200/night more now

As nice as the Morgan is and close to a lot of things to do. It doesn't have a beach, where as JW has as you know has Dawn beach! We stayed there "Westin" many times with all property and all that it offered was five stars all the way!! Yes, staying there is very different vibe then anywhere else on the island! No, I couldn't stay there the entire vacation! We only stayed there for 4-5 days before checking in to BSV!!! It's definitely that high-end resort feel, if that is your liking!!
Sand Gravity, got to love it!

I know there are a limited number of casinos on the island. They definitely did have a permit for one there before. Perhaps the answer is that they sold the license when the facility was closed for so long after Irma.
