Hotel Amapa Appoints Alessandro Stifani as General Manager
Hotel Amapa, the first hotel of its kind opening in early 2019 in the historic old town of Puerto Vallarta, is pleased to announce that Alessandro Stifani has assumed the role of General Manager. With over 20 years of experience in the hotel industry, Stifani brings to the hotel a wealth of exceptional experience in the hospitality industry.
“I am excited to lead the wonderful Hotel Amapa team and proud to be a key part of developing its unique presence in Puerto Vallarta,” said Stifani. “I look forward to building Hotel Amapa's place in a league of excellence within the lodging industry.”
Stifani's career began in Europe where he worked for nine years across various fields within the hotel industry including communications, entertainment and public relations. During this time, his passion for the hospitality industry was solidified and he has since focused his career on guest satisfaction.
With a wealth of experience, Stifani further paved his career in the hotel industry by joining Wyndham Hotel Group where he worked in four different locations, over 10 years, assuming a diverse range of managerial roles at each.
“Alessandro brings dedication, passion, and unparalleled hospitality expertise to the Hotel Amapa team,” said David Harries, Developer of Hotel Amapa. “We couldn't be more excited to unveil the hotel, which is centrally located to the best of what Puerto Vallarta has to offer, serving as a cultural hub away from the all-inclusive resorts, under the expert guidance of Alessandro.”
Most recently, Stifani was at Buenaventura Hotels serving as General Manager of Villa Premiere Boutique Hotel & Romantic Getaway. His appreciation for and interest in the people and culture that embody Mexico facilitate a supreme grasp on the Hotel Amapa vision of impeccably executed minimalism and modernism. An expert on the Puerto Vallarta area, Stifani will serve as a tremendous asset to the Hotel Amapa team, setting the bar high for boutique hotels and impeccable service
