Tracy Ford

Todd Cadwell

Vice President of Development

"I had the pleasure of working with Tracy Ford during the development of Hacienda Beach Club & Residences, a $250 million dollar luxury residential resort project located in Cabo San Lucas, MX.

Tracy directed operations for both our onsite hotel and sales center. In that capacity, Tracy was responsible for hiring and training a full staff of guest liaisons, building engineers, house cleaning, chefs and maintenance personnel.

Tracy identified high quality applicants and implemented a detailed training regime to ensure project objectives were achieved and client expectations were exceeded.

Tracy is a can-do individual who exhibits integrity and enthusiasm in all that he does. If we were building another project in Mexico Tracy Ford would be the first person on our team."

"It is my pleasure to write this recommendation for Tracy Ford. Tracy and I met at the Hacienda Beach Club and Residences in Cabo San Lucas. Tracy was the Director of Property Management for the grand opening. He worked on-site during the hotel demolition and through to the completion of the construction. Once the Hacienda Beach Club and Residences opened Tracy and his team provided the homeowners "piece of mind" but also a great sense of security that everything is taken care of. Tracy was hands-on with his team providing 5-star service with a goal to always exceed homeowner and guests expectations. Tracy is a passionate and caring service leader but most of all has great character, strong faith and trustworthy!"
