We are delighted to congratulate our own Kathy-Lynn Ward for winning the Award of Excellence - Tourism Services at the Barbados Tourism Awards Ceremony.
The Barbados Tourism Awards represent the highest bestowal of praise for those working in the tourism industry.
The Tourism Award honors persons in the industry who have achieved a standard of true excellence and professionalism and are consistent in their use of best practices and quality customer service delivery.
Some of Kathy-Lynn's achievements are:
- Put Barbados Businesses on the Google Satellite Map
Giving these businesses the ability to receive DIRECT bookings. This system also allows guests to find a wealth of information on Barbados' culture, heritage and activities - in fact over 300 points of interest- by clicking directly on the Google Map. http://barbados.org/maps.htm
- Made Direct Bookings possible on Facebook
This initiative has raised excitement among Barbados Tourism operators as they can now use their Facebook pages to communicate comfortably with potential visitors and receive DIRECT bookings.

- Developed arcRes together with Ian Clayton
arcRes is unique in its simplicity of use and well suited to tourism operators in the Caribbean. arcRes is much more than a booking engine. It is also a marketing tool allowing the tourism operator to capture the interest of the potential visitor while they are still researching Destinations. arcRes also powers the majority of our tourism websites and marketing channels.
- Guided Barbados.org through its many upgrades and enhancements to keep it leading edge.
- Created and developed Bookable-ads
Traditional advertising spots on Barbados.org and other marketing channels were turned into bookable entities.
- 12 years of diligence and devotion to the tourism industry
