The Park Hyatt St Kitts, the island’s leading luxury hotel, has named a new general manager, Caribbean Journal has learned. 

The property has tapped Richard Elliott to the role, in which he will oversee the resort’s operations, including its 126 rooms and suites, five eateries and bars and 7,000 square feet of event space. 

Elliott was most recently the general manager of the Hyatt Centric Waikiki Beach in Hawaii. 

His career also includes stops at the Andaz Maui, the Grand Hyatt Baha Mar and the Hyatt Regency Aruba, among other properties. 

“We are thrilled to welcome Richard Elliott to lead Park Hyatt’s sole Caribbean property,” said Thierry Guillot, Senior Vice President of Operations, Hyatt Latin America & Caribbean.” A Hyatt veteran, Richard has been a pivotal member of our family for nearly two decades. We look forward to unveiling distinguished guest experiences and ushering in a new era of creativity and sophistication with Richard at the helm.”
