Davidson Hospitality to manage Florida hotel

Davidson Resorts, the operating vertical under Davidson Hospitality Group, has been selected by JEMB Realty to operate Wyndham Grand Clearwater Beach in Clearwater Beach, Fla. The oceanfront resort has 343 guestrooms, three restaurants and bars, the Pallavi spa, nearly 22,00 square feet of indoor/outdoor event space, a resort pool, a fitness center and retail shops.

"We are proud to expand our Florida footprint further with the addition of this spectacular waterfront resort," Davidson Hospitality Group CEO and President Thom Geshay said in a statement. "True to our core values, the Davidson Resorts team is uniquely equipped to deliver exceptional value to our owner partners through cutting-edge technologies, collaborative tools, and guest experience solutions to dovetail flawlessly with the success that our partners at JEMB Realty have already built."

JEMB Realty tapped Davidson Hospitality Group in March 2022 to asset manage the property. In a short period, the team enhanced top-line performance through hands-on involvement in revenue strategy, capital planning support and fostering an environment of accountability that led to record breaking revenues and profits. As a result of the successful engagement, ownership entrusted Davidson to transition to full-service management.

"Situated on one of America's best beaches, the opportunities to enhance Wyndham Grand Clearwater Beach are aplenty and we feel confident that the Davidson Resorts team is the right strategic partner," said Morris Bailey, founder and chairman of the board, JEMB Realty. "We look forward to optimizing Davidson's superior platform services, longstanding hospitality relationships and market knowledge."
