You raise an interesting point and that is the Caribbean Visiting Friends Relatives (VFR) market from NY is maturing.  Many who came in the 70s and 80s are approaching retirement.  Many have left the NY area.  Others no longer have the ties that they once had as their parents have died, any kids who were left behind have grown up, and friendship bonds have been refocused to the USA.

So, with a market consisting increasing of kids who left young so have limited ties there, and kids born in the USA a more innovative approach is needed. 

I saw some here that in the early 2000s over 80% of visitors to Guyana stayed in homes, presumably relatives, or friends.  As relatives die off are those homes still available?  Many of us had complete migrations where most relatives in our generation left Guyana.  Even for those with homes to stay in, or those homes acceptable to our US born kids (mosquitos, heat, etc).

So yes some innovative ideas need to be developed with an emphasis, not on those who maintain close ties to Guyana, because they will make their arrangements.  But for the many who only return to Guyana for special events, cricket, reunions, etc.

And BTW in the tourist islands not every one wants to stay in a hotel.  If the family is large, or the kids are at that active age (2-9) some prefer villas, and so packages are available.  Something like that with an Air Bnb model might not be a bad idea, especially as most hotels in G/town are structured for business people, because that is their biggest clientele, as they only get around 20% of those who visit Guyana.
