Small Hotels Retreat
September 29-October 1, 2009
Host Hotel: Frenchman's Reef Marriott, St. Thomas, Virgin Islands

This event was developed by small hoteliers for hoteliers, focusing on marketing skills, technology, and human resource development. Seminars and round table discussions cover different aspects of those critical areas. In addition, allied members who specialize in serving smaller hospitality operations demonstrate their products and services at the trade show. The Retreat is an informal gathering by design, intended to foster the open exchange of ideas and experiences.

Though the event was developed by small hoteliers, the event's informality and exchange allows for every hotelier to increase their knowledge by attending the event.

Thank you to our sponsors to recognizing the value of this event for small hoteliers and ensuring that the Virgin Islands is a formidable host.
