Antigua and Barbuda’s Prime Minister Gaston Browne has revealed a $13.5 million government-led upgrade initiative for Jolly Beach Resort, a key strategic asset designed to bolster the twin-island nation’s fast-growing tourism economy. The announcement, made during Browne’s weekly Saturday radio broadcast, frames the investment as a deliberate move to elevate guest experiences and expand the resort’s capabilities to host large-scale international conferences and corporate events.
