A premium resort program didn't exist. So we built one.
Resort Leaders was launched in 2014 to bring the same standards Camp Leaders had set in summer camp staffing to the hospitality sector. The brief was simple. Only work with resorts that meet a luxury bar, only place participants who match it, and handle every part of the journey end-to-end.
