Troon and the Luxury Included Sandals Resorts and Beaches Resorts announced a new sales and marketing collaboration that will enhance the resort companies’ marketing strategies and elevate the guest experience across their golf destinations throughout the Caribbean.
The partnership is designed to benefit Sandals’ and Beaches’ portfolio of golf resorts, including Sandals Ochi, Sandals Royal Plantation, and Beaches Ocho Rios in Ocho Rios, Jamaica; Sandals Emerald Bay in Great Exuma, Bahamas; Sandals Regency La Toc and Sandals Halcyon Beach in Castries and Sandals Grande St. Lucian in Gros Islet, Saint Lucia.
As part of a joint strategy, Troon will identify advertising and marketing opportunities targeting golfers including Troon Magazine and Troon’s digital and email marketing platforms. Sandals’ golf resorts will appear on Troon.com, the Troon App and will be included in Troon Golf Vacations offers and packages. In addition, full members of participating Troon Privé–managed clubs will also receive exclusive news about Sandals Resorts and Beaches Resorts through the Troon Privé Privileges program.
To elevate the golf experience, Sandals will also outfit all four courses within its golf portfolio with an expanded retail selection of Titleist and FootJoy products.
Sandals and Beaches Resorts provide guests with transfers to select golf resorts and complimentary green fees to its four company-owned courses across three islands within the Caribbean, listed below, including two Greg Norman-designed championship courses.
