Regional Director of Operations

Gary began his hospitality career in upstate New York with the Howard Johnson Company, and for nearly 20 years successfully managed properties in New York and Connecticut. During this time he was designated Regional Training Manager and was awarded “Manager of the Year” on five separate occasions.

Later, as a district manager in the Northeast, Gary was responsible for the operation of 12 hotel properties. Focus on brand standards, RevPar, cost controls, and ongoing development of staff helped bring about positive financial results. He had further success as a district manager and Vice President of Operations overseeing a group that included resort properties, long-term stay hotels and condominium hotel properties.

Gary has extensive experience with many brands such as Radisson, Hilton, Holiday Inn, Howard Johnson, Ramada and Guest House International. The hotels he has managed include full service beach resorts, airport properties, limited service hotels, highway properties, corporate hotels and condominium hotels. Several of his managed hotels have won quality assurance awards and training award recognition. His local chamber of commerce honored Gary as its “Member of the Year”.

Gary’s unquestioned loyalty to ownership, commitment to the complete satisfaction of each guest and genuine commitment to staff development has been his keys to driving profitability.  Gary possesses years of experience in various aspects of the hotel industry, including operations and financial accounting. Gary is responsible for the overall operations of the resorts.

It has definitely been a great experience and this is one of the best management companies I have ever been involved with.
