Dory Mouawad is a hospitality leader driven by a clear mission: to shape hotel experiences that elevate communities, empower people, and contribute to the Kingdom’s long‑term transformation. Over the past 25+ years, he has led organizations through growth, restructuring, and brand evolution always with a focus on operational excellence, commercial sustainability, and human‑centered service design.

Dory’s leadership philosophy is rooted in building systems that last. He believes that hospitality is not only about service—it is about creating environments where people feel valued, supported, and connected. Throughout his career across Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Lebanon, he has guided hotel groups through strategic repositioning, portfolio expansion, and performance optimization, ensuring that every decision strengthens both the brand and the communities it serves.

Today, as Director of Business Development, Acquisition & Integration at Ewaa Hotel Group, he is part of a national movement redefining what hospitality means in Saudi Arabia. Ewaa stands at the intersection of public‑sector purpose and private‑sector innovation, operating through strategic partnerships that align with the Kingdom’s social development and tourism ambitions. “ Our mandate extends beyond traditional hotel operations—we are building a hospitality model that is inclusive, accessible, and socially impactful, supporting national objectives while delivering consistent, modern guest experiences ”.

Ewaa’s strategic partnerships enable us to scale with purpose, modernize with speed, and operate with a level of responsibility that reflects the Kingdom’s values. We are investing in technology, service culture, operational governance, and talent development to create a hotel group that is not only competitive, but nationally significant.

As we expand our footprint, the focus remains on shaping Ewaa into a future‑ready hospitality brand—one that blends efficiency with empathy, innovation with tradition, and growth with national impact.
