FReaching the finish line of a $14 million renovation deserves a celebration, and Faro Blanco Resort and Yacht Club spared no expense in introducing its reimagined property to Marathon’s dignitaries and business community on Oct. 24. Steeped in history with its iconic 1950s lighthouse and historic Parrish house, one of Marathon’s oldest buildings, resort staff spent an evening offering guided tours of the freshly-completed resort, along with live music, culinary creations and a champagne toast led by resort executives from Hilton, Prime Group and Shaner Hospitality.
Paired with Courtyard Faro Blanco, the resort now offers 250 guest rooms, four pools and multiple dining options, including the Blue Waters Bar and Grill and reimagined Lighthouse Kitchen and Bar. More information is at www.faroblancoresort.com. Photos by DANIEL DIEZ/Contributed
