Bed and Breakfast – Caribbean – Business Plan

March 3, 2023 By JamesCall Leave a Comment


Bed and Breakfast - Caribbean - Business Plan


Vette Kat Harbour Bed & Breakfast, a charming bed & Breakfast on our beautiful Caribbean Island will be available. The island is well known for its beauty and history. The B & B will operate as an LLC of Kayman St. Lucia. It will be located in the St. Lucia’s home. Their home is the heart of the B & B experience. You will have seven guest rooms to choose. The facility offers a beautiful, centrally located living room for guests, as well as a private, outdoor patio where they can socialize.

At first glance, you may not be able to see the plain white building decorated with flags of many countries. You will soon see that it could only be Vette Kat Harbour Bed & Breakfast once you enter the front door. A graceful gato gordo may greet you as one of the staff takes your bags and leads you to a cozy alcove for Passion Fruit tea and delicate biscuits.

From a portrait of Fromage LeGrande, a French Gastronome, he smiles from a high 18th Century portrait. A French door opens to an inviting courtyard. The sparkling silver and crystal on the tables nearby hint at future pleasures. A stunning backdrop for the owner’s collection of art, antiques, and richly layered fabric wall coverings and wall coverings provides a beautiful backdrop.

Readers of Travel + Leisure will continue to rate the inn’s personal approach to serving guests as one of the World’s Best. Indeed, one will have the sense that anything might be possible here. Breakfast can be brought to your room or served in the light-filled Terrace Room overlooking the garden. If you want to go to the beach or countryside for lunch, staff will prepare a delicious picnic and recommend a route that takes you to some of most beautiful scenery on the island. Returning to the inn for afternoon tea in the living room will be a treat. This magical place is known for paying attention to every detail.

Market

Within the hospitality industry, the Vette Kat Harbour Bed & Breakfast will be competing with hotels as there are no other B & Bs in the general area. The Vette Kat Harbour Bed & Breakfast facilities are far nicer than other hotels in the area. The area has a lot of standard chain hotels. Nothing special. The Vette Kat Harbour Bed & Breakfast – on the other hand, is a beautiful, elegant home – on a quiet street, in a small town, on the sea.

Vette Kat Harbour Bed & Breakfast is targeting different groups. The first group is people just looking for a weekend away from their daily routine. The second group is people who are just looking to get away for the weekend. They might have plans for activities at local parks or want to simply relax in a relaxing setting. The second group is those traveling by sea and prefer to stay in B & Bs &#8211, rather than in a hotel/motel. Others will just want to have the experience of service presented by an Executive Chef. While we will certainly get customers that fall outside of these groups, this classification should be fairly accurate.

Competitive Edge

Two distinctive competitive points distinguish Vette Kat Harbour Bed & Breakfast apart from the rest. The first is unwavering attention to detail and excellent customer service. St. Lucia’s realize that their mission is making sure that their customers have the best stay possible. Kayman and Jenne are committed to ensuring the happiness of their customers. This will be displayed in breakfast which will offer Starbucks Authorized, Certified Training System for Coffee and Tazo Tea.

Barrista services include Cafe Au Lait and four types of coffee per day. The Tazo collection will be featured with eight teas per day. The breakfast and baked goods will be delicious and will celebrate our guests. Island Style Skillet

A simple delight is Conch grilled to perfection, served with Red-eye Gravy over hand-rolled biscuits or Challah Bread Dipped French toast with Guava and Mango on the top, and finally dusted with powdered sugar. Pancetta, Sundried Tomato, and California Asparagus Fritattas make up a great selection. Egg Beaters, 100% juice, Wheat breads, Spelt, and Hearty Grain Muffins offer healthy options. Our medical knowledge will help guests make the right choices, whether they want to indulge in extravagant eating or keep a strict diet. We will also have our famous Caribbean White Chocolate Chip and Macadamia, Pineapple, Walnut cookies, which everyone loves!

Their unique facility is their second competitive point. The structure itself is amazing and is worth the effort. It is amazing to see the antiques, gas fixtures, and original gas lamps. They also have incredible stories about Executive Chef Kayman, who has created delicious dishes, cuisines and other culinary delights all around the globe.

Management TeamThe Vette Kat Harbour B & B is able to continue its strong business model due to its management. Kayman has earned his MBA providing the establishment with invaluable business skills. Kayman also brings unique experience and talents to the table that no other innkeeper is able to match. Kayman’s resumes for B & B GM, Marketing VP and Chef show that he has a wealth of experience in all three areas. Kayman was the GM for several world-class resorts as well as hotels and B & B&#8217’s. Each one of these companies saw an increase in profits, and increased program growth. Kayman will be assisted by numerous Presidents, famed Executive Chefs from television and industry magnates/titans/CEO’s. Kayman’s fame around the world on TV, the TODAY show and more will also bring TV exposure, shows and once again – Kayman will go live weekly on the radio and in magazines. Kayman will be assisted in his role by Max Nevis, Kayman’s stepson and Jenne Sequa, Kayman’s wife. Jenne Sequa and Max Nevis are both qualified chefs who have had extensive experience working as restaurant workers and Chefs at Country Club. Kayman will still work for the company where he worked for 13+ years.

Vette Kat Harbor B & B will have the opportunity to make this a unique B & B for our inter-island communities. Kayman St. Lucia’s passion and experience will make this possible. By month three, the B & B can be profitable and will make a profit by year one.
