Regarded as small, this sector pose huge potential for investment in areas of hotel and resort development. The number of visitors entering Solomon Islands for holiday has increase over the year and projection indicate that total arrivals will be 30% higher for 2009 and beyond. Recent increase in the number of international flights to Solomon Islands has induced a number of hotel constructions and renovations to meet international standard. While there is huge potential for investment, Solomon Islands still faces huge challenges in areas of buildings, transportation and communication. However, the national government is committed to improve this sector to assist the growth of tourism in Solomon Islands.
