Operational Services

John Drugan

Regional Director of Operations, Openings and Transitions, John explains how his primary responsibility is to empower his team to ensure each person can flex their entrepreneurial spirit—which results in guests receiving the highest level of service, and ultimately, enjoying their stay. And sometimes being an entrepreneur means some ideas don’t work out—and that’s okay.

“It’s like a basketball game, you’ve got to use your fouls. If you didn’t, then you didn’t play hard enough. We’re okay with having some fouls or some missteps because that shows you’re trying.”

Operational Expertise

Never cookie-cutter, CoralTree’s fully customizable operations platform accommodates the specific needs of each property and its competitive landscape. Our years of experience have made us skilled at structuring resources to enhance your brand, optimize expenses, and fulfill the promise of meaningful guest experiences at every turn. At the core of our approach is an emphasis on the property’s local context. Concepts and programming celebrate the surrounding community. Through strategic partnerships with local purveyors and purchasing power that leverages your budget, we weave the tastes, textures, history and personality of the community into the fabric of your property’s story.

Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go.
