Moxey added, “the environment is shifting, investor confidence continues to grow, buildings are going up and in some instances coming, events are happening, properties are selling, apartments are rented and homes are being purchased.”
GBPA President, Ian Rolle spoke of the opportunities that will be available as tourism investments on the island come on stream.

Royal Caribbean and MSC will be bringing over 1 million guests and if I am bring prophetic the newly branded Grand Lucayan Hotel will attract numbers never seen in its history to our shores and the new boutique resort on the old Port Lucaya Resort site will achieve an average of 75-80% annual occupancy. The new Six Senses mix use resort will also attract significant visitors to our shores along with the new floating dock marina in the Port Lucaya area. “
