million worth of additions and renovations that included a technologically advanced amphitheatre, an activities room, a modern club with entertainment and a new lounge facility.

The hotel is a 600-room luxury resort, surrounded by ocean and bay atop a 100-acre estate.

The resort features extensive recreational facilities, including a private beach club, indoor and outdoor swimming pools, an 18-hole par 3 golf course, 11 tennis courts, a fitness centre and a wide array of dining choices, including two world class restaurants -- the Newport Room and the Waterlot Inn.

In addition, the Southampton Princess will boast more than 30,000 square feet of flexible meeting space for groups of up to 700 people with the new Mid-Ocean Amphitheatre.

The Neptune Club, which was converted from a dark and dated lounge to a bright, new, modern facility, is a sophisticated club featuring live entertainment.

And the Lobby Lounge is a brand new facility within the main lobby of the hotel which takes full advantage of the panoramic ocean views from the Southampton hilltop.

The Touch Club disco was converted into a multi-purpose activities and games room called the Somerset Room for guests of the hotel.

The Southampton Princess was already a world class resort. But the recent improvements have boosted the hotel's capacity to accommodate a wider clientele and suit every guest's needs.
