Challenges… As Latin America & Caribbean Economies Grow
Investment flows to the region, Domestic and International Businesses Are struggling to Find Qualified Labor.
• Education directed to demands of this economic sector • A well managed migration in order to control extensive growth of the population not to put pressure on infrastructure & other • Not to ‘loose’ authenticity in culture & heritage • country’s product branding in quality of service • Job creation is necessary to address poverty and to give stability, opportunity and prosperity.
Challenges…
Sustainability within the tourism industry Tools for measuring and criteria for certifying ‘green’
destinations
Consumers & destination’s reputation for social and environment responsibility.
Ecotourism can return as much as 95% of revenues
Sustainability in tourism industry.
Investor’s Perspective.
• Desired return on capital invested • Global crisis intensifies the need for more
detailed pre-investment analysis, making values more scrutinized in markets with greater macro-economic risks
• Yields may be compared with capital market yields
• Emerging markets are expected to provide greater returns
• Seasonality is generally not perceived well
From Investor’s Perspective.
Operating History Hotels often cannot substantially
outperform its true competitive self
Equally important to investments in new developments or existing hotels
Soundness defines future performance
of hotels (new or existing)
,
Hotel Value – “the appetite of investor”
Statia… Discover & Experience… The Unexpected !
The Mar Linda Resort. The concept.
My vision is to play a key role in developing this project to reach a niche & beyond eco-tourism on the island. By being eco-friendly, self-supportive, by using reusable energy, with low carbon emissions and to guarantee the authenticity of the country's culture and to provide services to the people of Statia by contributing to the preservation of nature.
My Mission.
• My mission is being a key role player in the island's economy to provide resources to stimulate the above, education & economic development, a well skilled employment force, to cater and to provide a high standard service. The geographical situation of the island gives an additional edge of reaching and providing services to other islands as well.
The concept. I hereby present to you 2 video’s
The first video is about the concept of the resort
& a yacht to do island hopping,
and the second video
is about Hotel triple play.
Summary.
This will give the resort the edge of being trendy in technology
advances combined with Eco-Tourism making Statia the
ultimate innovative adventure ever.
