Nice video! I´m staying there this week 😀
Great interview.
Rob, your path throughout your professional journey is truly admirable. Your ability to master every level within the hospitality organization, gaining experience at each stage, is a true example of dedication, perseverance, and leadership. Reaching the highest level of the hierarchy is a testament to your talent and hard work and reflects the positive impact you have had on the company and on those who have had the privilege to work alongside you. Without a doubt, your experience and commitment continue to be a source of inspiration for everyone. I agree with you Aruba is a beautiful place, I met friends in Aruba whose friendship still prevails with time I will always love Aruba and the "BON BINI ARUBA"
Really good interview. Cross border, cross culture learnings.
I attempted to go by CVO for the same reason for about 6 months and everyone was confused “well, who’s the company CEO” they’d ask 🤦♂️ I switched back to CEO, but as Chief Energy Officer 🚀
A great discussion. Will share this with many. Com'on down to Sydney Australia anytime Steve!
Love Craig's story and thank you for this Teague!!! You rock
Thanks again. Graig this interview motivated me. I look up to you.Glad to have a leader like you in Aimbridge to lead this company. I can't wait to see the changes .Thanks again and it was my pleasure meeting with you that day you came to visit our hotel.Hope to see you again.
Awesome Chan sounds good story teller I had hour long discussion this march at his office , I don’t get tired listen to him.
😅😅😅😅😅😅
Chenn Patel great journey ❤
Thank you and always inspirational to hear CS - Thank you TT for this wonderful interview - you raise the bar.
Phenomenal video!
Craig Smith - operator extraordinaire!
What a terrific discussion -- Such useful perspective on what it takes to build a career + company with disciplined intent.
Amazing attention to detail. The whole place is an art piece. Hope we can stay there one day. hk
Wonderful discussion. Alex reminded me of NYC's restaurateur Danny Meyer and his concept of 'enlightened hospitality'.
@settlementhotel you’re spot on.
Great interview Jolyon. Looking relaxed and positive! All the best. Howard K.
Great interview.... it's a learning experience to be humble and appreciate each and every one on your way up.
Serving AAHOA as board member upto my Chairmanship in 2011 , I have met many successful hoteliers and very wealthy too but no one impressed me more than Hiren & Nick Desai from 3H Group ,Chattanooga, TN. Both of the brothers Hiren and Nick are very humble, honest and grounded . It speaks volumes of their upbringing and their family roots to the fruits. Their Business intellect is second to none but it makes even more powerful with Ethics and Integrity as Businessmen. I am blessed and fortunate to call them my partners and Learned a lot from them. Yes Deepak Ruparel was one of key Partners who we all looked up to but unfortunately we lost him last year. I am really proud of both of you with class and character which i have noticed in very few people. Hiren the Man, the Might and the Mission. Good Luck to both of you brothers as you keep growing . God Bless you . Jai Swaminarayan.
well done!
Fantastic interview and great questions! Love hearing others perspectives about this crazy market. Thank you Teague!
Incredible conversation, very helpful!

Amazing story and true definition of legacy family!
Thanks for having Rachel. You are right, she is the best
