17 YEARS OF SERVICE FOR
ELEGANT HOTELS
In 17 years, Elegant Hotels has grown into
one of Barbados’ most trusted, most visited
and most elegant and beautiful properties in
all of the Caribbean. Backed by a staff of 914
employees across all five properties, it’s all
about making sacrifices according to Elegant
Hotels' CEO Sunil Chatrani.
“In this business, we have to put a lot of
time into it. You have to really love this sec-
tor to be successful at it. We all love what we
do and spend more time working alongside
each other than with our own family,” Cha-
trani said.
Truly a team approach to doing business; it’s
not all about awards, glitter and glamour for
Elegant Hotels for Chatrani.
“The strength of our business is our Execu-
tive and management team. Our corporate
culture and environment in which we work
is the key to our success,” he said.
“We are not looking to win awards; we are
looking to win over our guests.”
Which is something they have done, and will
surely continue to do for many, many years
to come.
