Innkeepers Needed for New Boutique Property - Stonewall, TX

Newly renovated, small, boutique hotel in the charming Texas Wine and Hill Country is seeking a couple to be a key part of our team. Did you know Texas has a Wine and Hill country that is being called the "New Napa Valley"? With over 50 established wineries in the charming Hill Country located about 45 min north of San Antonio and west of Austin, the area is exploding as one of the main tourist destinations in Texas (and also a sought after place to live in general). We are opening a newly renovated motel in this area and are looking for a talented couple to manage the day to day operations.

The motel sits on 3 acres in Stonewall, TX, which sits in the middle of what has become known as the Hwy 290 Wine Trail. Built in 1963, it's a classic L shaped motel with 12 rooms. We will also be adding 5 cabins later this year after a full renovation on the motel.

We are searching for an outgoing, responsible, experienced, and versatile couple to manage the day to day operations, which include housekeeping, maintenance, and guest check in and needs resolution as needed. We expect to leverage technology as much as possible with self checkin and online booking, but you'll have some guest checkin activities. You'll be responsible for maintaining and cleaning the grounds as well as the public areas. As the General Partner of the Motel, you will work closely with us on recommended pricing, marketing recommendations, social media and other needs as you'll be located in the area full time (we are located in San Antonio). Candidates must share our high standards for cleaning and maintaining a high guest service level. Our ideal candidates have strong experience in various areas managing a small motel or B&B, are tech savvy, detail oriented and non-smokers. We strongly prefer candidates with no pets.

We are looking for a start date around the end of March into early April, but could be sooner depending on the renovation.

An onsite apartment with all utilities paid in addition to a salary.
