As basketball fans island-wide gear up for the arrival of NBA champion Mario Chalmers, staff and management of the Bay Gardens Beach Resort & Spa are busy getting ready to host the celebrity athlete and his entourage. This week, the Starting Point Guard for the Miami Heat NBA team will be landing in St. Lucia to take part in various events and promotional activities lead by Rhythm FM Inc. During his visit, Bay Gardens’ 4-star luxury property, the Bay Gardens Beach Resort & Spa, has been named as the place of accommodation for Mr. Chalmers.

“We’re honored to have the opportunity to host Mario and his crew,” said Senator Berthia Parle, General Manager for the Bay Gardens Beach Resort & Spa, “His appearance will be a wonderful treat for young aspiring athletes and his presence in St. Lucia is likely to offer fantastic promotional exposure for our country.  We’re delighted to be a part of making this much-anticipated visit become a reality.”

The Bay Gardens Beach Resort & Spa is a multi-award winning property nestled on Reduit Beach in Rodney Bay Village. The Bay Gardens Resorts chain, which also includes the Bay Gardens Hotel & Bay Gardens Inn, is known for regularly accommodating both International and Regional Cricket Teams and has previously hosted such celebrities as Wyclef Jean, Melanie Fiona, Jah Cure, Skinny Fabulous and Gyptian, among others.

Recently, Bay Gardens also accommodated Joseph Marcell, better known as ‘Geoffrey’ from The Fresh Prince of Bel Air, while he was on island for his performance as King Lear in the theatrical Shakespeare performance.
