Chris Blackwell, owner of Island Outpost Hotels
“Simplicity is the key to future hotel success“, says Blackwell, founder of Jamaica-based Island Outpost hotels and the man who brought Bob Marley to the world on Island Records. “And the key to simplicity is a beautiful location and good food. I believe in letting the location - nature - be the star,” says Blackwell. Fancy design is better suited to city hotels. He adds: “I use fresh local food, that’s a minimum requirement now. It means I cut down on importing, and it’s healthier.” Another important consideration for guests is music. All his rooms come with CD players - and a selection of reggae, naturally.
