HONOLULU Hawaiis hotel industry reports that February was its worst performance month in about a decade.
HONOLULU — Hawaii’s hotel industry reports that February was its worst performance month in about a decade.
The Hawaii Tourism Authority report published Monday used analytical data from the hotels.
One hospitality consultant says a drop in occupancy is a carry-over from last year’s volcanic eruption on Hawaii Island and severe weather events.
The report says statewide occupancy fell nearly 3 percentage points to 83.4 percent from February 2018 and revenue decreased nearly 6 percent from a year ago to $360 million.
The report says the average daily room rate dipped more than 1 percent to $290 and revenue per available room declined more than 4 percent to $242.
The last time Hawaii’s hotels reported similar performance levels was August 2009.
