Dear Outrigger hosts,
Please join me in welcoming Michael Gaarde-Nielsen to the Outrigger ‘ohana as general manager of the Outrigger Mauritius Beach Resort. Michael reports to me beginning today.
Michael, who holds a bachelor’s in hospitality management from Oxford Brookes University, will be responsible for all aspects of resort operations with an eye to maximizing commercial performance while delivering best-in-class service culture, host and guest satisfaction.
Michael has several years of resort leadership experience gained in Europe, the Middle East and South East Asia and has held general manager positions in both his native Denmark and Thailand, where he served as general manager for Centara Hotels and Resorts in both Phuket and Krabi.
A self-confessed chocoholic, Michael enjoys standup paddleboarding and playing soccer. He will be joined in Mauritius by his wife Kate and two young children, William and Maja.
Congratulations and welcome, Michael!
Tony Pedroni
Vice President Operations – APAC
