Hati, Dominican Republic, Jamacia - They are not economically viable for several reasons, including economics of scale, transportation costs, corruption, lack of arable land, lack of natural resources such as oil and mineral wealth. These compounded over time result in underdevelopment, low levels of education.
I'll leave Cuba out of the discussion because that just leads into the rabbit hole of political systems and embargos, but they obviously have severe economic deficiencies as well.
Basically to make it as a Carrabian Island you need a very small native population combined with seven or eight killer beaches.
