NEW YORK At an event held here last night, Island Outpost LLC announced the official launch of its new website at www.islandoutpost.com.
The new site acts as a portal and booking engine for the boutique hotel chain. It features 360-degree photographs of each of the properties hotel rooms, detailed descriptions of the hotels, and a real-time hotel reservation system that connects the consumer directly with the property. Website users can not only book a room online, but they can also take a virtual tour of all the guestrooms at the property and select the exact room that they wish to stay in. If the hotel is booked during the dates chosen by the consumer, the site will display the availability at the other Island Outpost hotels in that area.
Island Outpost currently operates fives boutique hotels in Miami Beach, five hotels in Jamaica, and two hotels in the Bahamas. Diana M. Rodriguez (9/20/00)
