Best Resort Worldwide

The impact of Kimpton Grand Roatán is reflected in its recognition as the third-best resort in Central America and the 33rd best resort worldwide. Currently, the hotel employs 265 people, with only five employees from outside Honduras, making it the second-largest employer on Roatán. In addition, its investment in promoting Honduras has been significant, with USD 3 million dedicated to advertising in the United States, strengthening the country’s image as a luxury destination with world-class hospitality. 

This success story demonstrates that, with vision and commitment, Honduras has the potential to become a leading tourism destination in the region. Kimpton Grand Roatán not only delivers a world-class guest experience but also creates a positive impact on the local community by generating employment opportunities and supporting sustainable development.
