Tarnowski previously led marketing as chief marketing officer (CMO) in her first tenure with the company.
In the newly created role, Tarnowski will oversee North American marketing, sales, revenue and communications strategy across Elite Island Resorts’ expansive portfolio, comprised of seven resorts in Antigua, Barbados, and Panama. With more than 25 years of experience in hospitality marketing and brand strategy, she brings a strategic vision and innovative approach to elevate the brand’s market presence.
Before joining Elite Island Resorts, Tarnowski held senior leadership roles at several high-profile hospitality companies, including Regent Seven Seas Cruises, Crystal Cruises, Sandals Resorts and most recently the re-launch of Victory Cruise Lines.
“Elite Island Resorts and the island of Antigua are synonymous, and have always held a special place in my career,” shared Tarnowski. “I look forward to re-joining this talented team to carry out Elite’s vision and continue building upon the legacy of founder Sir Robert A. Barrett.”
