The Pelican Bay Hotel & Condominium Project

A 232-suite hotel and condominium development at Frigate Bay, the island's principal tourism corridor.

The published scheme includes a 3,000 sq ft banquet hall, a main restaurant and bar seating over 320, and a 3,500 sq ft infinity-edge pool with jacuzzi and deck bar — a conference and events profile alongside leisure keys, rather than pure resort.

At 232 suites this is a large asset for St Kitts, and the US$45m sought is for completion. The capacity question — whether arrivals support another block of this size at Frigate Bay — belongs at the front of diligence.

Hotels of 30 bedrooms or more qualify for a ten-year income tax exemption under the Hotels Aids Act, plus customs duty relief on construction and equipping. Confirm the grant with SKIPA. Large room count against a small arrivals base. Hurricane exposure and the associated insurance cost sit in the base case.
