The Barbados Community College/Hospitality Institute/Hotel PomMarine is a full-service hospitality training facility, which comprises both educational and accommodation components.

It is the first training institute of its kind in Barbados and the eastern Caribbean, and is provides training for all types of workers in the tourism industry.

Hotel PomMarine has 20 standard guest rooms, a one-bedroom apartment, a fine-dining restaurant and bar, a café, two conference rooms, laundry, and a resource center. The well-equipped kitchen houses a butcher shop, bakery, and a security guard.

BCCHI/Hotel PomMarine launched a green program in July 2003 and later created an environmental management system which was certified on 16th October 2004. The Institute’s environmental management system is being used to promote practical awareness among the constituents of the institute and its community. This bold initiative is a start towards helping the tourism and hospitality industry redefine itself and learn what is necessary to correct environmental challenges.
