Tourism sector operators argue that Angola needs to accelerate investment in infrastructure, service quality and financing mechanisms in order to turn the current increase in demand into sustained growth in the sector.

The Association of Hotels and Resorts of Angola considers the upgrading of existing hotel establishments a priority, at a time when the average occupancy rate remains low.
The sector is calling for instruments that will make it possible to improve rooms, furniture, equipment, swimming pools, professional training and service standards.
The difficulties extend to tourist destinations with strong potential, but which are still hampered by poor access, limitations in electricity and water supply, basic sanitation and a lack of supporting infrastructure.
In Cabo Ledo, for example, operators are calling for coordinated intervention to improve conditions and make the destination more competitive.

Business owners also emphasise the need to expand the offer to different market segments, from business hotels to leisure and nature tourism establishments. The priority, they argue, is to create conditions that will enable the sector to improve quality, attract private investment and keep pace with the growth in foreign demand.
