  • Ideally, 6 months to 1 year of previous front desk experience in a hotel or hospitality setting.

  • Fluent in English, with strong verbal communication and interpersonal skills.

  • Spanish language skills are a plus.

  • A genuine passion for hospitality and delivering exceptional guest service.

  • Strong attention to detail, organization, and follow-through.

  • A proactive, personable approach and the ability to handle guest requests with professionalism and care.

  • For Daytime Schedules: Ability to work a full-time schedule of 40 hours per week or part-time schedules up to 20 hours per week, including rotating morning and afternoon/evening shifts. No overnight shifts are required.
    For Overnight Schedules: Ability to work a full-time or part-time schedule of 11pm-7am.
What We're Looking For

The ideal candidate understands the difference that personalized service makes in a boutique hotel. You take pride in remembering the details, anticipating guest needs, and creating thoughtful, welcoming experiences. You’re approachable, reliable, and attentive, and you enjoy being part of a team committed to high standards of hospitality.
