Send us a textWant the real story behind “managing growth” in a fast-changing town? We sit down with Hurricane's mayoral candidates for a candid, side-by-side look at how zoning, infrastructure, and budgets determine whether a city keeps its soul while adding homes, roads, and services. We dig into the general plan's role in preventing costly pivots, why density—more than raw population—is the key lever leaders can pull, and how water, power, sewer, and access act as hard gates on what gets built and when.Water takes center stage. You'll hear where will-serve letters help—and where they fall short—plus the nuts and bolts of reuse: Type 1 irrigation, trunk lines, and the Confluence Park buildout that shifts pristine spring water back into homes. We talk real costs, from treatment plants that inflated from $24M to $38M, to the reality that water will keep getting pricier. Power isn't far behind: coal retirements, stalled nuclear prospects, and storage-limited renewables complicate the resource mix, even as Hurricane maintains backup generation and shares in regional plants.If you've ever wondered why “affordable housing” rarely shows up next door, this conversation goes beyond slogans. We break down lot sizes, and why smaller, deed-restricted pockets spread through neighborhoods can support young families without creating high-rise blocks. We also get honest about impact fees—they're cost allocation, not a growth throttle—and how zero-based budgeting, under-forecasted revenues, and cash-funding capital projects keep the city resilient. Finally, we challenge the idea that “small-town feel” means freezing time. It's built by open doors at city hall, events like Peach Days, and a culture that welcomes newcomers while honoring property rights and a shared plan.Please make sure you like and subscribe, share it with other voters throughout Washington County to help them make informed decisions in the upcoming election.

                                Listen in as Erin and Zander discuss: How Zander went from military service in Iraq to building a $35 million real estate portfolio Why he pivoted from multifamily housing to the untapped niche of RV and glamping resorts The creative financing strategies he uses to secure unique deals How his team markets glamping resorts for maximum occupancy using travel sites, SEO, and influencer partnerships How passive investors can earn monthly distributions (not just quarterly) while also enjoying perks like free stays at the resorts … and much more!                                           About Zander Kempf is a real estate investor and developer specializing in RV and glamping resorts through his firm, Clear Summit Investments. His strategy? Acquiring, scaling, and branding midsize resorts that generate long-term cash flow and financial freedom, but more importantly, provide investors with the opportunity to redefine success and build a life on their own terms. As a former US Army officer, paratrooper, and Special Forces support with a deployment to Iraq, Zander sought a life where freedom wasn't just financial; it was personal. He turned overlooked real estate opportunities into scalable, high-performing assets to create authentic freedom for himself, going from a single home purchase to his now over 35 million dollar portfolio. But for him, investing has never been just about returns. It's about the power to choose, design, and live a life that truly aligns with who you are. Now, living in Hawaii, prioritizing his love for adventure, balance, and health, he's proof that real estate isn't just an investment; it's a vehicle to unlock the life you actually want to live. And now, he's helping others do the same.

Check out the latest Suite Spot episode featuring SVP and CMO at Best Western Hotels, Joelle Park! Joelle joins the Suite Spot to discuss the incredible BWH portfolio, their Life's a Trip campaign, marketing to different traveler segments, and much more.  Be sure to catch the full episode now! Ryan Embree: Welcome to Suite Spot, where hoteliers check in and we check out what's trending in hotel marketing. I'm your host, Ryan Embree. Hello everyone. Welcome to another episode of The Suite Spot. This is your host, Ryan Embree, here for another special edition of The Suite Spot. I am so excited to bring in our guest today. We're gonna be talking about everything, the Best Western Hotels and Resorts brand, but also marketing that is, Senior Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer, Joelle Park. Thank you so much, Joelle, for being on the Suite Spot with me today. Joelle Park: Thank you for having me, Ryan. Ryan Embree: We're gonna have a great conversation about marketing, about your wonderful brand. Some of the recognitions that the brand has seen recently. And we're gonna talk about some industries trends as well. But as per tradition here at the Suite Spot and really hospitality, we love to hear everyone's kind of journey story that led you in. You know, sometimes we have people just fall into the industry, but at the end of the day, a lot of people fall in love with our industry 'cause hospitality is one of the, if not best industries to work in. Talk to us a little bit about your story, Joelle, and what led you to SVP and CMO at Best Western Hotel and Resorts. Joelle Park: Thanks, Ryan. Well, I'm really excited to be here and it sounds like many others. I have fallen into hospitality and fallen in love. I've spent over two decades in marketing overall working across brand strategy, customer experience, communications, and on every project, every account, it's about driving results through innovative marketing. Early in my career, I started agency site and I partnered up some incredible brands in retail, entertainment, technology, and my last client was hospitality. And that's where I fell in love with the industry. And now I've spent really more than 16 years in hospitality telling compelling stories. I have a love of travel personally, but I also just believe in the power of travel to make the world a better place. So I've been fortunate to take on some leadership roles spanning across loyalty. Now product development and something I'm especially passionate about is culture and customer experience, because the most powerful form of advertising really is the customer experience here at BWH Hotels. I have the privilege of leading our marketing, communications, loyalty and partnerships teams, and that's encompassing of Best Western rewards and Worlds Hotels rewards. So excited to share more about what we're up to. Ryan Embree: Yeah, it's exciting to hear and it's interesting because hospitality, you talk to a lot of hoteliers in the hospitality world, and they say, although it's a massive industry, right, it's a very small world. You run into people that you know all the time. Sometimes you're working with one brand, then you go to another brand. But I always find it fascinating to find stories like yours, Joelle, where you start outside of hospitality maybe, and then find your way into it. Because I do think that really does show the passion and love that people have towards our industry because once that bug, you know, and it happens to travel too, it grabs a hold of you. It's hard to let go. And here you are. And a lot of the hospitality professionals that I have spoken to they've had that exposure to other industries. And there's just something about hospitality that is so special. And I think you nailed it on the head about talking about the power that travel has. And one of the things within travel is storytelling. And I've heard you in other interviews talk about your passion and storytell...

We interview Sarah Larbi, where she discusses her real estate investment journey: Sarah began with a "boring" buy and hold strategy, purchasing a small $129,000 house in Brantford with 20% down while working two jobs to save money. She progressed from basic buy-and-hold to BRRRR (Buy, Renovate, Rent, Refinance, Repeat), then expanded into short-term rentals with cottages in 2018, and eventually developed a resort in 2022. The importance of tenant screening after bad experiences, finding the right mortgage broker who understands investing, and evolving strategies with market changes - including mid-term rentals that generate 1.5-2.5x the income of long-term rentals.

Is EQ more important than IQ when it comes to hospitality?Today, Manish Puri, General Manager of the Regent Hotels and Resorts Bali, joins Dan to dive into key topics in the industry, such as sustainability, community, and leadership. They discuss the essence of hospitality, differentiating it from mere service, and delve into the concept of regenerative hospitality and sustainability. Manish shares insights from his career at prestigious hotel brands like Oberoi, Burj Al Arab, Six Senses, and Regent Bali. They explore how sustainability initiatives can transform the industry, turning cost centers into investment centers, and the importance of heartfelt service. The conversation also covers the challenges of opening and managing new hotels and the impact of leadership and open-heartedness in inspiring younger generations in the hospitality industry.Takeaways: Embrace regenerative practices by viewing waste as an opportunity to create value, turning sustainability efforts into investments rather than costs.Lead by example and integrity. Your actions are always being observed, so inspire others by consistently doing the right thing, even when no one is watching.Pay attention to the small details in your work. Excellence is built on thousands of thoughtful, consistent actions rather than a single grand gesture.Foster a culture of genuine care and positivity. Small acts of kindness and authentic smiles can create a powerful ripple effect throughout your organization.Design guest programs that encourage visitors to give back to the local community, such as volunteering or sharing their expertise, creating a positive impact beyond their stay.Treat sustainability initiatives as opportunities for investment and growth, not just as expenses. Find ways to turn environmental responsibility into tangible value.Quote of the Show:“ A luxury brand has to have that caring side of it. Caring for the environment, caring for all stakeholders, caring for the community. Without it, you are not a complete hotel.” - Manish PuriLinks:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/manish-puri-36241231/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/manpuri/ Website: https://www.ihg.com/regent/hotels/us/en/reservation Shout Outs:1:15 - Oberoi Hotels and Resorts https://www.oberoihotels.com/ 1:16 - Burj Al Arab https://www.jumeirah.com/en/Stay/Dubai/Burj-Al-Arab-Jumeirah 1:17 - Potato Head https://seminyak.potatohead.co/ 1:22 - Six Senses https://www.sixsenses.com/en/ 2:28 - IHG https://www.ihg.com/hotels/us/en/reservation 2:30 - Kimpton https://www.ihg.com/kimptonhotels/hotels/us/en/reservation 2:33 - Intercontinental https://www.ihg.com/intercontinental/hotels/us/en/reservation 5:10 - Beverly Wilshire https://www.fourseasons.com/beverlywilshire/ 5:12 - Pretty Woman https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pretty_Woman 5:48 - Four Seasons https://www.fourseasons.com/ 5:49 - Jim Brown https://www.linkedin.com/in/jim-brown-718240a/ 22:42 - TripAdvisor https://www.tripadvisor.com/ 28:45 - Tom Cruise https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Cruise 28:52 - Grand Hyatt https://www.hyatt.com/grand-hyatt/en-US 28: 53 - Kempinski Palace https://www.kempinski.com/en/palace-portoroz 29:02 - University of Oxford https://www.ox.ac.uk/ 29:02 - Cornell University https://www.cornell.edu/

Hey food allergy mom! Is there really such a thing as an allergy-friendly resort? You want a vacation where you can actually relax, knowing your child is safe. But searching online can feel overwhelming. It's hard to find anything about allergies, and even then, it's hard to know what allergy-aware actually looks like in practice.

Send us a textWhat happens when you combine cycling with ziplining? According to Michael, you get one of the most unique adventure experiences available—bike ziplining through the Mexican jungle. After returning from a week-long resort vacation with his family, Michael shares his discovery of this extraordinary activity that lets you pedal your way through the rainforest canopy, over water, and even through caves on a suspended recumbent-style bike.This episode blends travel tales with cycling plans as the duo prepares for their upcoming Bourbon Country Burn adventure in Kentucky. Michael reveals that despite his fractured clavicle not fully healing (now eight weeks into recovery), he's determined to join the event and enjoy the famously smooth roads of Kentucky horse country. The roads, as Adam explains, are maintained to perfection for transporting valuable thoroughbred horses—creating an ideal cycling surface through picturesque landscapes.The conversation weaves through Mexican adventure parks, underwater propulsion devices for "power snorkeling," and the fascinating 2000-year history of ziplining itself. We learn how modern recreational ziplining originated with Costa Rican biologists studying rainforest canopies in the 1970s, and how it's evolved into unique variations like the cycling zipline Michael experienced.Looking ahead to Kentucky, the pair shares their excitement about the Bourbon Country Burn event with its perfect blend of cycling, bourbon tastings, evening bonfires, and community gatherings. They'll be starting their journey on Louisville's historic Whiskey Row before heading to the Kentucky Horse Park campground, where cornhole boards will be set up and bourbon will be shared. For listeners considering joining them, there's even news of an available campsite thanks to a friend who had to cancel.Want to experience the perfect blend of cycling adventure and leisure? Grab your bike, pack your sense of adventure, and perhaps a taste for bourbon—the roads of Kentucky and the stories of fellow cyclists await!

We're recording poolside at Disney's brand-new tower at the Polynesian Village Resort to talk all about the best Disney staycation resorts across several categories. Most people think of Walt Disney World as a place where you have to be in the parks from sunrise to fireworks, but we believe some of the very best Disney vacations happen when you never even step foot inside a park.For us, a Disney staycation is all about slowing down, relaxing, and enjoying everything the resorts have to offer. These aren't just hotels — they're destinations on their own. We're talking pools that feel like mini waterparks, restaurants that rival anything in Orlando, lounges with unbeatable theming, and hidden corners where you can kick back and unwind. Each resort has its own atmosphere, and some truly transport you to another world.In this episode, we're breaking it all down across several categories — from best pools and dining to most relaxing resorts, family favorites, and even a few hidden gems that often get overlooked. Whether you're planning your very first no-parks Disney getaway or you just want to know which resorts we think make for the perfect staycation, we've got you covered.

Episode 509: This week on Traveling with the Mouse, we're shaking things up and letting spontaneity take the wheel. Sometimes the best Disney trips are the ones where you don't over plan every second, and that's exactly what we're diving into. A Tale of Two Trips We've got two very different adventures on the horizon, […] The post Spontaneity, Strategy, and the Beak & Barrel appeared first on Traveling With The Mouse.

Laura Hawkins is the founder of Gamemasters Escape Solutions, a creator and operator of high-performing escape rooms for hotels and resorts. After a successful career making viral television advertising, she discovered escape rooms on a European trip. She turned a passion project into a 14-room operation and a turnkey hotel amenity business (including installs at Atlantis, The Bahamas). She joins us to talk revenue, resorts, and escape room design. • Budget-season hot take: maximize social first and add hyper-targeted print ads if you have the cash. • From receptionist to rainmaker: Laura hustled her way off the front desk and into award-winning ads. • “Just Slow Down”: the graphic traffic-safety campaign that made her the Quentin TarantinA of Winnipeg. • Vacation plot twist: one so-so Dublin escape room → Athens upgrade → Paris hook → new career. • Resorts love it: low staff, durable props, and constant revenue. • Corporate catnip: team-building, communication, respectful-collaboration—plus a true differentiator vs. the hotel next door. • Design recipe: theme first → story → tactile puzzles (knobs, secret doors, scents)… and yes, limes. • Player pro tip: communicate, inventory the space, and OPEN. THE. DRAWERS. Our Top Three Takeaways: 1. Escape Rooms Are a High-ROI Amenity for Hotels and Resorts Laura emphasized that escape rooms offer hotels a unique way to generate revenue while differentiating from competitors. Unlike spas or waterparks, escape rooms appeal to a wider demographic—from families with young kids to teenagers, grandparents, wedding parties, and corporate groups. They're low-labor, durable, and cost far less to install and maintain, while still driving constant guest traffic and ancillary spending at restaurants and bars. 2. Immersive Entertainment Strengthens Guest Connection For Laura, the heart of escape rooms is shared experience. Guests disconnect from screens, collaborate face-to-face, and leave with stories they'll continue discussing long after the game. This creates a sense of joy and connection that builds loyalty and word-of-mouth—two of the strongest assets for hotels seeking repeat visits and community engagement. 3. Differentiation Requires Courage and Creativity Laura challenged hotels to show more boldness in shaping guest experiences. Too many properties look the same, leaving price as the only deciding factor. By embracing immersive, playful, and customizable amenities—like themed escape rooms or even immersive dinner theater—hotels can stand out, create memorable stays, and deliver new revenue streams.
