A brief introduction to Pacific Palm Resort Hotel
The hotel was founded in 1996 when Majestic Realty Co. The resort has 292 rooms with floor-to-ceiling windows and balconies. 2 presidential suites are also available to the clients. The hotel targets a wide client base from regular travelers who plan to visit the business conference and for those who want to organize a wedding. Additionally, Pacific Palms also owns a full-service golf area for those who are fond of spending active time in the fresh air.
Organizational Structure
The hotel’s managerial staff is composed of directors – Noel Bailey, Peter Harves (IT Web and Maintenance Engineer), Geoffrey Russel (Manager of Bulwarra Resort), Barbara Davidson, Ramy Filo (CEO), Denise Price (Hospitality Manager), and others. The company policy focuses on the analysis and evaluation of the nature of the remuneration structure as the key to managing personnel successfully. The factors also involve the experience of the individual, the length and type of service, and the company’s overall performance. Each of the directors reports to the executive. At the same time, the managers are given full responsibility for their departments.
Positive and Negative Impressions on the Property
On the one hand, the interviewed employees have provided mostly positive feedback on the quality of organizational structure and treatment. On the other hand, some of the operational pitfalls occur due to the lack of cooperation between departments. While visiting the golf area, I have noticed that some of the territories are not properly serviced due to the lack of personnel. As per the restaurants, I was impressed with the services and loyal attitude on the part of the waiters. The dishes were delivered just in time.
