In this episode, we sit down with Carlos to discuss his inspiring journey from managing his family’s first hotel in Costa Rica to taking a bold leap and establishing his first Holiday Inn near Miami International Airport in the late 1990s. Today, Driftwood Capital, under Carlos's leadership, operates 86 hotels across the US, boasting over 16,502 rooms and managing hospitality assets worth over $3 billion. Join us for an exhilarating conversation as Carlos shares the highs and lows of his career, including the challenging times during the Covid-19 pandemic, and offers insights into navigating the ever-evolving hospitality industry.
