Dolce Hotels and Resorts today announced it has been awarded the management contract for Seaview Resort and Spa, a 297-room historic hotel, conference center and golf resort near Atlantic City that has been managed by Marriott International since 1984. Troon Golf has been retained to manage Seaview's two 18-hole championship golf courses, the links-style Bay Course, designed by Hugh Wilson and Donald Ross, and the 80-year-old Pines Course, designed by Howard Toomey and William Flynn.
The 300-acre Seaview complex in Galloway, N.J. -- one of 31 upscale and luxury full-service hotels and resorts owned by LaSalle Hotel Properties, a publicly traded real estate investment trust based in Bethesda, Md. -- will transition from Marriott management on May 8.
Steven A. Rudnitsky, Dolce president and chief executive officer, said the addition of Seaview will "round out the Dolce portfolio with our first golf and incentive meetings destination in the Eastern United States." Dolce immediately will begin implementing programs to drive revenue and increase profitability by integrating Seaview's sales efforts with Dolce's infrastructure of 40 sales representatives in the Northeast.
Rudnitsky said Troon Golf will add its branded golf experience to Seaview's courses and offer Troon Rewards, "the best loyalty program in golf," for Seaview's golfing guests. "Seaview always had two courses rich in history, and now it will have a great golf operator," he said. "Troon will reawaken Seaview golf and help us promote the facility as a premier golf destination." Hud Hinton, Troon Golf president and chief operating officer, said his company will bring to Seaview its reputation for maintaining "pristine golf course conditions, personalized member and guest experiences and world-class retail offerings." "Our goal is to create extraordinary guest and member experiences through personalized service, consistency and uncompromising attention to detail," he said. "We want to exceed our guests' expectations every time."
