October 22, 2019

Buoyed by the rise of experience-driven travel and an affinity toward locally-inspired hotel offerings, resort assets remain a top target among investors. According to JLL Hotels & Hospitality’s Global Resort Report: Three-Part Series (“Global Resorts”), international tourist arrivals are anticipated to reach 2.2. billion in 2019, with a continued growth trajectory throughout the next decade, which will benefit resorts globally.

In the first part of this series, we visit three key resort markets in the Americas include South Florida (locations spanning from Palm Beach to Miami), Hawaii and Colorado. Although each market features unique drivers, shared dynamics include resort sales accounting for the majority of total hotel trades, as well as increasing traveller volume.
