YOUNTVILLE, CA. January 9, 2017 - Brookfield Hotel Properties is pleased to announce the appointment of Kini Sanborn to the position of Director of Sales and Marketing of The Vintage Estate, comprised of The Vintage Inn and Villagio Inn & Spa, located in Yountville, CA. In this role, Sanborn will oversee the repositioning of the luxury property as it undergoes a major transformation in Spring 2017, including the complete redesign of all public spaces, guestrooms at both hotels and the meeting spaces. Sanborn will also oversee all sales and marketing initiatives for both luxury properties, the V Market Place, and Spa Villagio. Her position will be responsible for working closely with several of the world's top branding teams and designers on the development of creative and innovative strategic campaigns that welcome the most discerning and experiential-based travelers, as well as attracting high-profile meetings and event clientele.

“We are very excited to have Kini join our team at the Vintage Estate,” said General Manager Steve Davino. “She brings a wealth of experience in sales and marketing in the luxury market and is extremely involved in the local community. Her leadership and creativity, combined with her deep knowledge of the industry, will be an extremely valuable asset in continuing to enhance and distinguish the Vintage Estate brand.”

As a seasoned hospitality professional for more than 15 years, Sanborn joins The Vintage Estate following nearly four years as Director of Sales and Marketing at Bardessono Hotel & Spa, also in Yountville. Here she led an eight-person sales team, as well as the public relations agency, and was an integral player in the operational success of the ultra-luxury property. While in Yountville, she also held a seat on the Yountville Chamber's Executive Board for two years, and was Chair of the Marketing Committee for the town. Prior to this role, Sanborn held the same positions at both Pan Pacific Hotel Group and MTM Luxury Lodging, both in Seattle, Washington, where she doubled catering revenues, exceeded group goals, and tactically captured RevShare along with the teams she managed.
