The preponderance of the Spanish hotel industry in the Caribbean maintains a similar rhythm to the previous annual exercises. Twenty-seven of the main Iberian hotel chains manage 280 hotels in the most important destinations in the region. Meliá, Iberostar, Riu, Barceló and Bahía Príncipe top the list – they manage 60% of that plant.

The Mexican Caribbean, the Dominican Republic and Cuba comprise about 91% of the hotels operated by the companies analyzed, also present, to a lesser extent, in Jamaica, Aruba, Bahamas, Puerto Rico and Haiti.
