A Unique Destination for Weddings

Speaking at the FITUR 2025 International Tourism Conference in Madrid, Spain, Marc Pelfort, the regional group director of sales and marketing, emphasized the resort’s exclusive wedding island in Green Island, Hanover. This private venue, designed specifically for wedding celebrations, provides couples with a picturesque Caribbean backdrop for their special day.

The Caribbean’s destination wedding industry has been growing steadily, valued at $4.4 billion in 2022, with projections estimating it will reach $17.3 billion by 2033. Recognizing this trend, Princess Hotels & Resorts is tapping into this market by offering a one-of-a-kind wedding experience.

Expanding into Business and Event Tourism

In addition to leisure travelers, the resort is also attracting corporate groups and event planners. With 65 group bookings secured, its newly built convention center is set to become a sought-after venue for conferences, executive retreats, and business gatherings. The facility features multiple breakout rooms, a capacity of over 1,000 attendees, and a sky terrace with views of the bay and overwater villas.
