The test of time has proven Sandals Resorts to be a leader within the tourism and hospitality industries. This success would be impossible without the vision and innovation of the Luxury Included® brand’s Founder and Chairman, Mr. Gordon “Butch” Stewart. From guests to staff, Sandals Resorts has proved beneficial, and the government of Barbados agrees! The Barbados Ministry of Industry and Commerce recently honored Mr. Stewart with the coveted Barbados Distinguished Entrepreneur Award in recognition of the huge impact Sandals Barbados has had on the country – now that is appreciation!

Mr. Stewart also had the opportunity to speak with many young, Barbadian entrepreneurs on the ups and downs of venturing out and starting your own business, emphasizing the charge to achieve greatness for self, country and region.  He also urged the group to set the right example through excellent service – a standout characteristic of the Sandals brand since its inception.

Exceeding guest expectations – a simple concept on the surface – is what Mr. Stewart credits to his success. While he never sought out to win awards, the passion, efficiency and social responsibility of Sandals Resorts could not go unrecognized. With a dedication to moral and environmental awareness, it is no surprise that Barbados has ultimately benefitted from the latest addition to the Luxury Included® Vacation resort!
