bob-marley-reggae-sexygirls.jpgThe Marley family is also embarking on another entertainment venture in the name of Bob. This time it's in the Hospitality Industry. Marley Resort and Spa will open it's doors to those who seek to live de life. Living the good life that is with room rates starting at US450 per night and suites ranging between US600 t0 US1500. It is full service so guests can de-stress at the "Natural Mystic" Spa or can eat their heart out at "Simmer Down" the Hotels Island Cuisine Restaurant or just lounge around the oceanside. Shopaholics, can drop a few dollars in the boutique which carries Cedella Marley's Catch a Fire clothing line.

This paradise is located on Cable Beach in the Bahamas and offers a multitude of quality services to wet the appetite of the lodger. The Resort is managed by Rita Marley and Stephanie Marley and the word on the street is that Allie Cole, Stephanie's beau has also been seen giving a hand in getting Nassau's alluring hideaway ready.

The 16 room resort which once served as the Marley's personal summer hideaway, is now a luxury pit stop for strangers and friends from far and wide. Bob Marley was accurate with his lyric, "dem a go tired fi see me face." His photos and paraphenalias are throughout the home as well as his song titles. Some of the suite names are Lively Up Yourself, Positive Vibration, Easy Skankin and Three Little Birds ranging in size from 370 sq. ft to 650 sq. ft they overlook the live music area. Other rooms are Misty Morning, Royal Rita, Mellow Mood, Legend, Kaya, One Love, Jammin, Talking Blues, Satisfy My Soul, Sun is Shining, Kinky Reggae, and Nice Time. Visitors can dine in Simmer Down or Immerse in the Spa, "Natural Mystic". Whatever ones tropical desire, it can be found at the Resort, either in the spa, on the beach, in the rain forest shower or the museum. Bob Marley's Legacy definitely lives on.

Nothing really new... heavy business with t-shirts, incense, smikoing paper and much other stupid stuff has started long ago... Commercialisation of his worst music through the Legend album... all dis same... Too much commercialization of....

And am really certain that all this is negative... even to bring new youths to reggae... access to the real sound and message is getting harder... Babylon too ruff....

Yes,
they abuse Bob`s name for their business. I think Rita is kind a greedy.
Even if I could pay that money for 1 night - I would rather prefer my tent.

Way before his death, Bob had been totally co opted into the system we call capitalism.In todays world, well society is just taking it to rthe ultimate level of obscenity. Marley tv adverts, etc..and anyway, his music wasnt the best reggae..and thats a fact....

It's a shame the same zeal shown by the Marley's to money out of Bob's name isn't also shown in a campaign to spread his spiritual and humaitarian message.
