The Spanish hotel chain Meliá is set to cease all operations in Cuba by the end of the week. The company, which manages 34 sites across the island, announced that it can no longer maintain its presence due to major operational difficulties resulting from recent sanctions imposed by the United States government.
The decision follows increased economic pressure from Washington, which the hotel group stated has made it impossible to continue conducting business in the country. This withdrawal marks a significant shift for the hospitality sector in Cuba, as the company exits the market in response to the evolving regulatory landscape and the impact of U.S. policy on international operations.
