Turnberry Hotel Group took over management of the Turnberry Isle Hotel & Resort in Aventura, Fla., from Fairmont Hotels & Resorts.
Turnberry, which opened the resort in the 1970s and reacquired it in 2006, recently invested in a $150 million renovation of the property. Douglas Husted, formerly general manager of the The Inn on Biltmore Estate in Ashville, N.C., has been appointed managing director of Turnberry Isle.
“We had a long relationship with Fairmont and thank the company for its efforts,” C. Scott Rohm, president of Turnberry Hotel Group, said in a statement announcing the management change, adding that most Turnberry Isle staff members have been invited to remain.
