Six Caribbean nations are making history by holding the largest, multi-destination Black Friday sales event. With nearly 400 participating hotels and resorts, travel enthusiasts have never seen such wide cooperation among the Caribbean’s top destinations.

From 12:01am on Black Friday to 11:59pm on Cyber Monday, travelers will save 20.15% off virtually every hotel and resort in Barbados, Antigua, Trinidad, Tobago, Saint Lucia, Anguilla and Nicaragua. The 20.15% discount is in honour of 2015 and is good for stays between January 5, 2015, and December 15, 2015, without any blackout dates.

“With such wide participation among the islands, every type of traveler can find their perfect 2015 vacation and know they’re getting a huge discount,” said Ashwin Kamlani, founder and CEO of Regatta Travel Solutions. “It is exciting to see the major Caribbean destinations unite like this and offer travelers so many options at such a deep discount. The willingness and ability of the islands to come together in this manner and market themselves to the consumer as a region is the key to the future of the Caribbean as a premier tourism destination.”
