Hotel Abrego Becomes Newest Portfolio

WINTER SPRINGS, FLA. — EZYield.com, the originator of automated online channel management solutions for the worldwide hospitality industry, today announced that Portfolio Hotels & Resorts’ newest property, Hotel Abrego, has been added to EZYield.com’s rapidly growing global client roster. Located in Monterey, CA, Hotel Abrego is a newly opened 93-room, full-service boutique hotel that enjoys a central uptown location near the Monterey Convention Center, Cannery Row and the Monterey Bay Aquarium.

“The property was previously known as the Sand Dollar Inn, but after extensive renovations including the addition of a new main lodge, more meeting space and 30 new guest rooms, we re-launched the property as Hotel Abrego on June 30th of this year,” stated Michael Payne, VP of operations for the hotel’s management company, Portfolio Hotels & Resorts. “Once we knew the date that we could officially begin receiving bookings, we immediately called EZYield.com to have them set up our customized channel distribution network.”

After successfully using EZYield.com’s technology at several other Portfolio properties for over two years, Payne made the decision to implement EZYield.com at Hotel Abrego because it provides independent properties with the ability to effectively manage rates and inventory over multiple distribution channels. It is also easy to use and reduces time spent managing channels by several hours a week.

”Once the EZYield.com system is set up for any of our properties, managing the rates and inventory data becomes much easier,” continued Payne. “We can generate more revenue by streamlining systems and by freeing up more time to focus on additional areas of profitability.”

“Portfolio Hotels & Resorts has earned an excellent reputation for efficiently managing and effectively marketing their properties. Hotel Abrego is yet another beautiful addition to their boutique portfolio,” stated Ed St. Onge, president of EZYield.com. “We are continually investing in making EZYield.com a better experience for hoteliers and it is reassuring that Portfolio looks to us to help drive sales and establish rate parity by adding new properties to their yielding portfolio.”
