The Embassy Suites by Hilton St. Augustine Beach Oceanfront Resort announced the appointment of Liz Hogan as senior sales manager and Jessica Pekarik as catering sales manager.
Scheduled to open early this fall, the 175-room, all-suite hotel is owned by Miami-based real estate investment and development company Key International and managed by Hospitality Ventures Management Group. It will offer 20,000 square feet of meeting space, including a 5,200-square-foot oceanfront ballroom with outdoor terraces, and expansive waterfront lawns for events.
“With these latest appointments, we’ve added exceptional service, deep industry knowledge and great contacts to our already solid foundation,” stated Jason Kern, hotel general manager. “Liz and Jessica bring the type of talent that increases the level of expertise we’re able to offer hotel guests, but also elevates our status within the meetings and events industry.”
