Janelle Hopkin from Spice Island Beach Resort received the Caribbean Media Exchange Leadership Award at a ceremony in Coral Gables, and she credited her late father, Sir Royston Hopkin, for building the luxury property into what it is today. The third-generation hotelier said her belief in Grenada, plus pride in Caribbean workers, drives how she runs things every day, with her mom, Lady Betty Hopkin, and her kid, Royston, both showing up to watch her accept the trophy.
CMEx president Bevan Springer mentioned Hopkin represents people-focused leadership that pushes regional tourism standards higher while honoring the family legacy. The 64-suite resort operates as a locally owned spot with private pool suites and beachfront rooms that won multiple awards for luxury service and sustainability efforts.
