We have just returned from a ten-day holiday at Beach Club. We last stayed there about seven years ago and, having heard that it had been sold and would be demolished, felt we just had to go back there one more time. Poor old Beach Club! The plans are to replace this unique, lovely place with a very expensive and probably soulless condominium - not that this island needs another one, they're everywhere and most of them have several units for sale. Still, Beach Club will go once 40% of the planned units (starting price 4.5 US dollars)) have been sold. So....poor old Beach Club has the air of doom about it. It looks tired, shabby neglected - there is no way we would have swum in the swimming pool, it looked positively lethal! Staff retain their professional approach to their jobs, but the smiles do not come as readily as they did seven years ago. Their futures must seem very uncertain. The beach is as wonderful as ever, and it was an absolute delight to be only eight feet away from it when I woke each morning. But poor ols Beach Club - someone really should put it out of its misery - it's tragic to see a ,much l.oved old friend lose dignity in this way.
