This past weekend, model and reality TV star turned tequila connoisseur took a trip to the Bahamas to celebrate the grand opening of one of her newest beverage endeavors. Brand new to the SLS Baha Mar is The 818 Shack. VIPs gathered for the grand opening party to welcome the brand's first physical cocktail lounge location outside of the United States. The celebration was decked out with seemingly unlimited 818, craft cocktails presented by 818 Tequila, Mexican-inspired refreshments, and a live DJ performance that had guests on the dance floor all weekend.
Set against the vibrant backdrop provided by the luxurious Baha Mar, The 818 Shack will remain a permanent addition to the resort. After a day of sunbathing at the beach or a swim at the resort pool, the lounge will provide guests with an elevated, Tulum-style cocktail lounge experience. The lounge will serve 818 Tequila signature cocktails and more Mexican-inspired snacks along with hosting exciting event activations and weekly DJ performances.
“We are very excited about the launch of the 818 Shack at the SLS Baha Mar. 818 Tequila is perfect in refreshing cocktails after a swim or a day at the beach,” says entrepreneur and 818 Founder, Kendall Jenner.
Baha Mar in Nassau is the only Caribbean residential destination featuring impeccable turnkey Residences by the acclaimed hotel brand – Rosewood Hotels & Resorts. Making its name in tropical luxury, the SLS Baha Mar’s $200 million water park, Baha Bay, is set amidst 15 lush acres of prime beachfront real estate.
