Repositioning a 100-year-old luxury resort hits different than building something new. You work with history, legacy expectations, and a modern guest who doesn't care about any of that unless the experience delivers.

Suzanne co-hosts with me, and we talk with Daniel Hostetler, President & CEO of The Boca Raton, about how the property has managed a multi-year repositioning under new ownership — what they changed, why they changed it, and how they operate it day to day. I'm sharing it under #NoVacancyNews.

Here's what we hit: 🏛️ They left a brand and run the resort independently under new ownership 🏗️ They knocked down a convention center, opening up land for a four-acre leisure-driven pool complex 🏨 They run five distinct lodging products across one campus (Beach Club, Tower, Cloister, Yacht Club, Bungalows) ⭐ They use Forbes standards as the operating baseline and build toward a multi–five-star goal 🎁 They push curated personalization: amenity closet + butlers instead of one-size-fits-all turndown 👥 Daniel talks promote-from-within and how they build consistency across a large team
