Sandy Lane Hotel has been praised for its “impressive contribution” to Barbados’ economic landscape.
Delivering remarks at the five-star hotel’s 50th anniversary celebration and annual awards ceremony on Friday evening in St James, president and chief executive officer of the Barbados Tourism Authority (BTA), David Rice, said Sandy Lane was known worldwide not only for its physical structure but also for its human resources.
Rice said the management strategies of the luxurious hotel, one of the most prestigious in the world, were worthy of being adopted by other hotels and tourist attractions in Barbados.
The CEO also commended the hotel for its contribution of substantial funds annually for training and development of employees. He urged Sandy Lane employees not to rest on their laurels, but to continue on “your path and reengineer this fine product”.
Sandy Lane’s general Manager Robert Logan thanked and congratulated all champions and coaches for their hard work and tireless contributions, especially during the “economic downturn”.
