Prime Minister Gaston Browne has provided an update on the investments in the country’s tourism sector, stating that the construction of a new hotel at the former Halcyon Cove Hotel site is progressing well.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

According to him, the hotel will be ready to welcome guests by the end of the year.<\/p>\n

The Sunwing Group’s investment in the Halcyon Cove Hotel is reported to be the closest to completion.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

The new hotel will be larger and improved, featuring over 300 new rooms and several over-the-water bungalows, aimed at creating a luxury resort in the eastern section of Antigua.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

Additionally, the Sandals Group, owners of the nearby property at Dickenson Bay beach, have expressed their intention to expand their resort as well.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, there are plans for a luxury development in Barbuda, separate from the ongoing developments at PLH (possibly another hotel or resort), which will be finalized through an upcoming agreement.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

The prime minister also mentioned an undisclosed well-known luxury brand partnering with the government for a tourism investment.<\/p>\n

He expressed his satisfaction with the impressive level of investments by PLH, describing it as one of the most noteworthy tourist developments in the Caribbean.<\/p>
