Welcome!
With the anticipation of summer just around the corner, we couldn't help but reflect on all the fabulous events spring brought to The Meridian Club. From unusually large guests, to sightings of our long time friend, and a surprise visit from a guest who simply fell out of the sky and stayed a while, it seems like Pine Cay is a destination of choice for all types of creatures.
To celebrate the seaon, we are offering a special Romance Package. Come and see for yourself what all the fuss is about!
