I have been in contact with her off and on over the past 6 hours. She said that Brac Reef is a total loss. What is still standing will have to be torn down.The Lobby, office, gift shop, spa, bar, and restaurant are all completely demolished. They lost the roof off of the top floor's rooms and have major damage to the bottom floor's rooms. The staff housing has roof damage but isn't too bad off. The 30 tourists who stayed at the hotel are all fine the other 10 who went to a shelter are also safe. If you could post this on stormcarib for their families that would be great..They are planning to fly them out this afternoon as long as they can get the plane in. I also heard from Perry McLaughlin that all 200 people who stayed on Little Cayman are safe. There is a lot of damage to the roads but it looks like they got lucky as far as major damage goes. Thanks for all your hard work to keep us updated. Carolyn Shroy Edited November 9, 2008 by wolfeeldiver Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BDSC 1 Posted November 10, 2008 I just spoke with them this morning and in fact it is totally destroyed. It appears they will have to completely rebuild. But I'll be one of the first ones back when they do because it was such a great place with wonderful people. BDSC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
