Island Outpost Launch Chic Shack Packages
UNITED KINGDOM, May 8, 2006. Island Outpost, the boutique collection of hotels owned by music mogul Chris Blackwell, was recently honoured by Elle (March 2006) in the magazines' first Chic Shack Awards. Three of the Island Outpost's luxurious Jamaican properties received prestigious awards - Jakes, Treasure Beach; Strawberry Hill, Blue Mountains; and Goldeneye, Oracabessa.
Elle Travel Editor Susan Ward Davies rated Island Outpost's Jakes in Treasure Beach, Jamaica as her overall No. 1 chic shack. "The original chic shack, a cross between a travellers' hostel and a designer hotel, where celebs will fly in on a $1000 helicopter transfer to stay in a $100 hand-painted room..." Susan Ward Davies Travel Editor, Elle MagazineTo celebrate the accolades, Island Outpost have launched their exclusive "Chic Shack Packages."
