Steve Turk On The Behind The Stays Podcast

Today, you will hear Steve Turk's guest appearance on the Behind the Stays podcast with host Zach Busekrus.

Meet Steve Turk — a decorated professional who has spent over two decades working in luxury hospitality.

Steve’s father was a susccessful attorney. From time to time, his dad would bring him along on work travel and Steve remembers being in total awe at the hotels he and his dad would stay in.

There was something so magical about walking into an ordnately decorated hotel lobby and being greeted as if you were some kind of royalty that left a significant impression on Steve.

As Steve began thinking about what he wanted to do with his life during his later high school years, he assumed he’d just become a lawyer like his dad was. 

But there was an idea that Steve just couldn’t shake…this nagging that pulled at his heart.  And that nagging was a desire to work in hospitality.

Tune in to hear the remarkable story of:

• How Steve worked his way up to executive roles at Loews, Nobu, Mandarin Oriental and other luxury hotel brands

• Why he wound up leaving these coveted roles to become a hospitality entrepreneur

• And why he’s now building a luxury micro resort focused on sustainability and agritourism in South Florida.
