Sonesta Coconut Grove Names Michael Broderick Director of Residence
MIAMI, FL. January 21, 2016 - Sonesta Coconut Grove today announced the appointment of hospitality industry veteran Michael Broderick as director of residence. Effective immediately, Broderick will manage all aspects of the 213-unit condo-hotel's owner relations efforts. This will include aligning with the hotel's residence program manager and executive team tointroduce a series of new and exciting owner initiatives in 2016.
“We are beyond excited to have someone with such extensive industry leadership experience joining the Sonesta Coconut Grove family,” said Curtis Crider, the property's general manager. “Michael brings with him some outstanding new ideas, problem-solving abilities and a passion for relationships that can be hard to find. We are thrilled to have him onboard with us as we start the new year.”
With more than 25 years of experience in the hospitality industry - including 15 years working with hotels, resorts and condominiums - Broderick is a seasoned leader perfectly positioned to help propel Sonesta Coconut Grove's owner relations programs forward. Prior to joining Sonesta Coconut Grove, Broderick served as director of operations for The Trump Royale in Sunny Isles, Fla., where he managed all front office, concierge, pool, beach, sales and leasing activities. In that role, Broderick created and implemented an array of new departmental programs and vendor relationships that reduced expenses on many contracts in multiple areas of the operation.
Previously, Broderick served as resort manager for The Westin Grand Cayman SMB Resort & Spa where he managed a major multi-million dollar full property renovation. He has also held other positions in the industry, including General Manager of The Grand Caymanian Resort, and Director of Rooms/Revenue Management for Fort Lauderdale's Riverside Hotel.
