Tabacón Thermal Resort & Spa in Costa Rica has announced Andrey Gomez as its new general manager. Gomez, who joined the team on July 1, brings over 25 years’ experience in hotel management and operations across Central America to the role. His inherent understanding of the region and expertise in balancing the requirements of luxury tourism with social and environmental integrity are crucial as he’s tasked with elevating the guest experience at the resort.
Gomez’s career has focused on leading boutique properties across Panama, Nicaragua and his native Costa Rica. Most recently, he held the position of managing director at Islas Secas, just off the coast of Panama. There, he successfully navigated periods of closure due to lockdown and drove forward its ethos of ecological stewardship. He was also responsible for positioning Morgan’s Rock in Nicaragua as “best in class,” overseeing its renovation, staff training and dramatically increasing profitability. Within Costa Rica, his experience includes the opening of El Silencio Lodge & Spa and a strategic role building a new operational structure at premium island experience Isla Chiquita.
At Tabacón Thermal Resort & Spa, Gomez will oversee the daily operations and team behind the 105-room resort, thermal experience and spa. The ongoing renovations at the resort include a new restaurant experience and suite upgrades. In addition, Tabacón offers a variety of programs designed to support the surrounding community, the conservation of its pristine rainforest location and Costa Rica’s cultural heritage. According to the resort, Gomez’s ability to deliver luxurious, immersive and adventurous experiences make him well-placed to ensure Tabacón’s “welcome home” mantra is evident at every guest and employee touchpoint
