So maybe I was wrong about the Euros. According to this source, the property was purchased by US investors.
The Ahnvee Resort & Sport, a five-star all-inclusive 144-suite hotel in Sosua – on the country’s north coast – will officially open in January 2017.
Its facilities, both the rooms and the gymnasium, have been designed to attract top-level athletes.
The hotel will feature three full-service restaurants, two swimming pools with bars, and a gymnasium.
Guests will also enjoy a whole selection of aquatic, terrestrial and extreme sports, as well as shuttle service to the beach area.
Next to the hotel’s central swimming pool area is the Roam & Crave Restaurant, where guests will enjoy a varied menu of local dishes, excellent meats and fresh seafood, including lobsters.
Although closed for many years, the hotel was recently purchased a group of U.S. investors.
Looks like this place is open? I checked Travelocity's page for Super Bowl and rooms are on sale for $153

.
I don't think they have opened to customers yet
Looks like the first available date is Feb 1 on the Travelocity page
Their own website had the first reservations on Jan 26 but no other updates on that site
They haven't bothered to update their facebook page since December 16 though
Pretty much everything has been pretty quiet which you likely wouldn't find as a normal thing for a place set to open in a few days. Not sure who is in charge of marketing there but perhaps they have a plan or a whole lot of reservations already.
I guess we will see if they open on time but I would be a little leary that they do open when they say they are

They indicated that they plan to be open for the super bowl. Travelocity seemed to indicate that people have already been making reservations for February.
I've heard wild conspiracy theories like these folks are really behind the closing of Rumba.
Spoke to someone in Sosua yesterday that claimed Rumba is supposed to open for the super bowl but we've been hearing rumors about Rumba for months. Looks like the place is still a crapshoot even in high season but at least the weather has been nice which means the beach is an option for a place to chill.
.
Not sure who the actual ownership of Ahnvee is but they clearly have some deep pockets given the apparent large sums being invested.
There must be some tie to the now closed Victorian House as it is said the management and staff of VH have gone to the new resort to work
Now don't know why the resort would necessarily want Rumba closed except for there also is a tie to Bourbon Street and they certainly have benefited from the closure of Rumba. But again have no idea if there is common ownership there or not.
What's not clear is what kind of place Ahnvee will try to become meaning how friendly will they be to the monger type guest.
They look like they are going to try and cater to a guest that is not typical to Sosua but I guess it will remain to be seen if the chica's will be welcome or not.
I suspect that some of the past guests of VH are going to find that their activities are not wanted at the new resort.
I have no interest in paying $150 plus for a place to stay there but I might be interested in patronizing the restaurant should they allow non resort guests to eat there.
Im guessing that in less than six months they'll be highend guest friendly with room rates in the $110 vicinity.
I was informed Victorian house is indeed closed. I will diffinitely miss the view. I guess I'll stay at bella mar for the view. The old management from Victorian House Is now at the new spot Ahnvee resort. They are open for business. The web site pics look awesome . I'll see for myself and take pics.
.
Yes word is they closed the doors the end of the year. There might be a thread about it somewhere
From what I have heard Bellamar has taken over the property with some plans for renovation.
However seems like I also read that it might become an AI if it reopens and possibly no longer chica friendly.
Not sure where they think they are going to get the customers from if they shut out the monger crowd but someone must be selling a dream to somebody
Keep in mind that property used to be an AI that didn't want hookers. Pure conjecture but I think the higher ups at VC/Bourbon Street never really were happy with the monger/hooker business model that emerged and are with the crowd that wants to clean up Sosua and bring in more of the traditional golfer type tourists, couples/families and locals that can afford to vacation there. Ahnvee is a slightly different spin on that but it doesn't seem to be suited for the budget minded monger "pesos para putas" crowd.
Stopped by Ahnvee on the Jan 26 to see what was up
There were some staff around but there were no guests there yet.
I asked what looked liked to be a security guy or someone that worked there standing outside if they were open and he shook his head that No they were not open than mumbled something to me in Spanish that I did not understand
The place looked pretty cleaned up but you could tell was not quite ready to open yet to adequately receive guests at this time
Guess we will see what another week brings
