Frenchman's Reef & Morning Star Marriott Beach Resort Announcing Shopping Package

March 2006 -- Frenchman's Reef & Morning Star Marriott Beach Resort in St. Thomas has forged an exclusive relationship with a local crafts merchant, Zora the Sandal-Maker, to offer guests premium made-to-order sandals. Prospective guests can book the "If The Shoe Fits . . ." Resort Shopping Package, and a short time upon returning home, will receive their specially handcrafted, premium leather sandals.

The Package: The "If The Shoe Fits . . ." package offers guests a 4-night/5-day stay at Frenchman's Reef & Morning Star Marriott Beach Resort. Rates begin at $363 per double occupancy room, per night. The package includes:
  • two pairs of handmade, leather Zora sandals
  • daily buffet breakfast
  • unlimited water ferry tickets from the resort to Zora’s store in downtown Charlotte Amalie (15-minutes one way)
  • two shopping tote bags
  • two pedicures to soothe those weary shopping feet
  • a resort welcome gift and welcome drinks upon arrival
  • Taxes are included in the package rate.

Ordering Sandals: Guests who purchase the "If The Shoe Fits . . ." package must visit Zora twice during their stay in St. Thomas. The first visit allows you to pick out the sandal style and color, and have your feet and arches drawn and measured.

The second visit allows Zora and her craft workers to conduct a detailed fitting that includes allowing you to walk around and stretch the leather to fit the form of your feet.

Since the sandals are custom-made, it is suggested that you visits Zora’s shop in Charlotte Amalie on the first day of arrival in St. Thomas. The finished product is shipped to the purchaser's home three to four weeks later.

“With the close proximity of St. Thomas to the United States, travelers can enjoy an easy getaway of sun, fun, duty-free shopping and custom-made sandals,” said Lisa Hamilton, Director of Sales & Marketing for the resort. “Frenchman’s Reef & Morning Star Marriott Beach Resort is pleased to be the only hotel property on St. Thomas to partner with Zora. Her sandals have become a household name in the US Virgin Islands, and now visitors will understand why.”

About Zora: Zora has been creating custom-made men’s and women’s sandals since 1962. Customers can choose from over 20 different styles, with a wide range of color selections available. Other options include choosing between high or low sandals to selecting the type of leather used, with the weight of the leather varying from soft and flexible to heavy and durable. For an additional cost, one can order orthopedic cushioning, arches, metatarsals and high wedges.

The Resort: Why It’s Dreamy: Frenchman’s Reef and Morning Star Marriott Beach Resort was voted “Best Resort Hotel” by readers of Caribbean Travel & Life (May 2005), known for its casual yet sophisticated accommodations (408 guestrooms) overlooking a secluded beach with warm, aquamarine waters and sweeping vistas of the Caribbean’s most majestic yacht harbor. The resort also boasts one of the best nighttime views of Charlotte Amalie.
