Destination Hotels & Resorts is one of the top hotel investment and independent hotel management companies in the United States, with results that have consistently bested industry averages. Much of this success is a direct result of our focus on investor returns, individual assets, and aligning management with the individual needs of owners. Our combination of strong capitalization through Lowe Enterprises, and a strong track record of experience offer a level of credibility that is nearly unmatched in the industry.

Management

Management Services

A critical part of our success is Destination Hotels & Resorts' decentralized philosophy of on-property, entrepreneurial management teams. Each team has the autonomy to respond to local market conditions while operating within the Destination culture. The property general manager's duty is not the expansion or promotion of a chain of hotels, but the success of the individual property.

We pride ourselves on having built one of the industry's most comprehensive, professional and cost-effective property support programs. This means providing a full range of support services designed to enhance the efficiency of each property:

  • Pre-opening and ongoing marketing support
  • Guest satisfaction and associate opinion surveys
  • Accounting and financial reporting
  • Internal audits
  • IT infrastructure, including wide area network and Intranet site
  • On-property IT and systems support
  • Human resources, recruiting, and training
  • Compensation and benefit programs, and administration
  • Insurance and risk management
  • Cooperative purchasing
