Vista Hospitality Ownership And Management Firm Has Properties Throughout Canada And The United States
Myrtle Beach, SC (PRWEB) February 23, 2012
The AAA four-diamond Marina Inn, located within the Grande Dunes Resort in Myrtle Beach, is renowned for its world-class accommodations and service. The only Myrtle Beach area hotel to be ranked among the “Top 25 Hotels in the United States” by TripAdvisor®'s 2011 Travelers' Choice Hotel Awards, it is ranked among the best hotels for meetings by Meetings South and Successful Meetings magazines. In addition, it is an Expedia® Insiders’ Select™ best hotel and its premier restaurant, WaterScapes, continually wins awards for excellence.
“It's exciting for us to be part of such a wonderful property in Myrtle Beach and the Grande Strand community. We expect to retain most of the current staff, and we're going to work hard to make this extraordinary hotel even better,” said Amin S. Visram, chief executive officer of The Vista Group Of Companies.
The Marina Inn Hotel and Condominiums at Grande Dunes offers over 230 oversized guest rooms and expansive suites with terraces from every room. Every room has a view of either the Grande Dunes marina or the Intracoastal Waterway.
“The Marina Inn is an important part of the Grande Dunes resort community,” said Jim Apple, president and chief executive officer of Burroughs & Chapin Company, Inc. “However, it is the only hotel we operate, and so it is out of sync with our other core businesses. With Vista's acquisition, we can concentrate our resources on our core businesses. Burroughs & Chapin could not ask for a better company than Vista to acquire Marina Inn. “
Visram expects the acquisition of the Marina Inn to be the first of Vista's investments in South Carolina.
“We're here to stay,” he says. “And we'll be seeking other opportunities around the state now that that we have acquired Marina Inn.”
Joe Ross and Josh Williams of Paramount Lodging advised the Seller on this transaction.
