When planning a trip, choosing the right accommodation can make or break your trip. With so many options available, it can be overwhelming to decide where to stay. However, consider supporting Black-owned hotels and resorts as an option. Not only will this support Black entrepreneurs in the tourism industry, but it will also provide a unique cultural experience.
Black-owned hotels and resorts offer a sense of community and diversity that is often missing in larger, corporate-owned properties. These establishments are often run by families and have a personal touch that can be felt in the service and atmosphere of the property. In addition, Black-owned hotels and resorts often reflect the culture and history of the area in which they are located, providing an authentic and enriching experience for guests.
Supporting Black-owned hotels and resorts is also a way to address the lack of representation and equity in the tourism industry. According to a report from the National Association of Black Hotel Owners, Operators and Developers (NABHOOD), only two percent of hotels in the United States are owned by African Americans. By choosing to stay at Black-owned properties, we can help to increase representation and boost wealth within the Black community.
In this article, we will present 10 Black-owned hotels and resorts across the United States that offer a diverse range of experiences. From beachfront resorts to cozy bed and breakfasts, these properties are sure to provide a memorable and unique getaway. (Click next to keep reading)
