WHO WE ARE:

Destination Hotels & Resorts began in 1972 with the development and management of condominium resorts. Since then, we have grown to become the country's second largest independent hospitality management company with more than 7,500 employees, over 7,000 guest rooms, and more than $1.5 billion in assets under management. We are a subsidiary of Los Angeles-based Lowe Enterprises, a privately-held, national real estate organization active in commercial and hospitality property investment, management, and development.

Since its inception, Lowe has been responsible for more than $6 billion in prominent real estate assets nationwide. Destination Hotels & Resorts is unique in the lodging industry in that our primary mission is to create value for guests, investors, and associates in each of our hotels and resorts. We do this by developing an innovative, customized business and service plan for each property we manage and combining it with the sales, marketing, and operating resources of a company many times our size.

This lodging industry expertise, together with the real estate savvy of Lowe, has allowed us to bring a different perspective to the hotel management business.
