Some Key Highlights, Strategy & Improvements in addition to full Asset Management duties

During the four years of Global Asset Solution supervision, the Resort became one of the World’s Most Acclaimed Resorts, renowned for its famed overwater bungalows, and award-winning Four Seasons service. The Resort has commanded some of the highest ADRs in the world, which was part of our new marketing strategy, which a special focus on: pro-active revenue management and PACE analysis, increased direct business within certain business segments (limiting exposure with receivable accounts), geographic source of business to leverage seasonality, minimizing commissions, improving room type utilization (specially suites/villas marketing), maximizing segments with high ancillary spend, best performing Four Seasons hotel on social media. The RGI above 200% became the norm. The Resort’s excellent performance in terms of flow-through and has translated to significant cash flow.

Global Asset Solution introduced ROI-driven capital projects (controlling ~7M Euro CapEx spend in three years totalling ~180 projects). We reconfigured certain overwater bungalow (e.g. additional terrace and plunge pool), public (e.g. improve/redesign most F&B concept, creation of activity desk to improve in-house sales and excursions) and back-of-house spaces to heighten the guest experience, enhance ancillary revenue, and capture additional cost savings (e.g. construction of solar panels farm).

New services such as direct private jet services from the U.S. to the resort were also worked on with the hotel team.

Independent hotel valuation grew by >20% the last two years allowing owners to have a successful exit.
