The tourism minister credited several factors for the strong performance, including a significant boost in airlift capacity. Four new airline carriers – Sunrise, LIAT2020, WINAIR and JetBlue Airways – launched routes to the destination in the fourth quarter of 2024. Additionally, investments in the yachting and cruise sectors, along with new hotel developments, have strengthened the tourism landscape. Notable properties contributing to growth include Sandals St. Vincent and the Grenadines Resort, Holiday Inn Express & Suites, La Vue Hotel, and Mayah’s Suite.
Looking forward to 2025, St. Vincent and the Grenadines aims to maintain its growth trajectory. Plans are underway to expand room capacity, including the groundbreaking of a new Marriott Hotel, which will add 250 rooms to the island’s accommodation offerings.
“This rapid growth within our tourism sector demonstrates the collective efforts of the ministry, tourism authority, air and seaport operators, accommodation providers, and our broader industry partners,” said Minister James. “We are committed to delivering an unparalleled Caribbean experience for our visitors.”
