Dear Councilmembers,
I would like to express Portofino Hotels full support of Redondo Beach Tourism and their efforts on behalf of hotels in our city.
The Portofino Hotel & Marina has benefitted from many of their initiatives including Expedia campaigns, web traffic from digital ads and exposure from social media influencers. It is a challenging time for the hospitality industry, and RBT provides invaluable marketing support that ultimately drives guests to stay in our hotels.
Thank you.
Cordially,
Drew G. Berry
