By the Caribbean Journal staff

A major new hotel project is coming to the island of Saint Lucia, according to Saint Lucia Prime Minister Allen Chastanet.

Invest Saint Lucia has completed transactions with a Barbados-based firm to buy the lands at Choc for what will be a 400-room Hyatt-branded hotel project.

Choc Beach is located in northwestern Saint Lucia, north of the capital, Castries.

The new hotel will be a mix of European Plan and all-inclusive options, according to the Prime Minister, who was speaking at Chamber of Commerce’s Encounter Series this week.

Construction on the new Hyatt project is slated to begin in the second half of next year, according to a government statement.
