Maui Sunseeker Featured on Upcoming Hotel Impossible Episode

PRESS RELEASE – For Immediate Release

Maui Sunseeker LGBT Resort Featured in Travel Channel’s Reality TV Show “Hotel Impossible”

Second season of ‘Hotel Impossible’ features a Maui, Hawaii resort that caters to the LGBT clientele.

Kihei, Hawaii, November 20, 2012

Hotel fixer Anthony Melchiorri, star of Travel Channel’s “Hotel Impossible,” comes to the  rescue of the Maui Sunseeker LGBT Resort. The episode featuring the transformation of the resort, its first resort property in the beautiful state of Hawaii, premieres on December 17 at 10:00 p.m. ETPT on Travel Channel.

An adults-only property, the Maui Sunseeker welcomes all, but caters to the LGBT clientele. With such a narrow client focus, Melchiorri works with Chuck Spence, Owner of the Maui Sunseeker, on the marketing strategy and allocation of resources to improve the property.

The hotel presented a unique problem as it receives rave reviews from its clientele but struggles with its occupancy and related cash flow, hence the marketing strategy focus. Designer Blanche Garcia joins Melchiorri to upgrade the rooftop deck.

“It was eye opening for all involved in this show” laughs Spence, “for us from a business perspective and for the cast when they discovered the clothing optional hot tub”.

Just watched this eposide! Loved it! Beautiful views! Anthony and Blanch brought beauty back to this place. Living
1000′s of miles away in Georgia and a beach lover myself and only dreaming of coming to Maui, watching this eposide made me feel as if I were there. Good luck in the many years to come! Maybe one day I will party on your roof top deck! But with my clothes on! Jill kelly
