MONTEGO BAY — A new hotel is set to break ground in Tobago in the first quarter of this year.
The Indigo Bay resort, which will have 79 suites, will be located on Little Rockly Bay on the western end of Tobago.
“Tobago is actively pursuing new hotel development,” said Tracy Davidson-Celestine, Secretary of Tourism at the Tobago House of Assembly, who was speaking at the Caribbean Travel Marketplace conference in Montego Bay on Monday. “We are seeking to persuade investors to come to Tobago and encouraging investors currently there to expand and to move into new development. And that has not fallen on deaf ears.”
Indigo Bay will be a four-star resort, she said, with completion slated for the middle of 2015.
The resort will have a large outdoor movie screen, a gymnasium and a restaurant, among other amenities.
Davidson-Celestine said the property would seek to “utilize the ambiance” of Little Rockly Bay as much as possible.
