The high-profile event attracted top luxury travel professionals and providers from over 100 countries, offering an invaluable platform for St. Kitts to network with influential industry leaders and showcase the island’s unique product offerings. Over four days, the St. Kitts Tourism Authority conducted 100 one-on-one sessions, fostering relationships with key partners and reinforcing the island’s appeal to discerning travellers.

“Virtuoso Travel Week provides another avenue for St. Kitts to showcase the authentic charm and rich cultural offerings that make the island a standout destination in the Caribbean,“ said Kelly Fontenelle, CEO of the St. Kitts Tourism Authority.

In addition to the one-on-one sessions, St. Kitts hosted an exclusive “Virtuoso Travel Week St. Kitts Suite” event, which brought together travel agent representatives from various airlines and Virtuoso Preferred travel agents, alongside representatives from Park Hyatt St. Kitts and Paradise Beach Hotel. This event further served as a valuable touchpoint to bolster relationships with key stakeholders and further spark interest in the destination.

“Our participation at Virtuoso Week aligns with our strategic efforts to further tap into the luxury market and increase visitor arrivals to the island,” added Danielle Weekes, Business Development Manager at the St. Kitts Tourism Authority.
