  • Partnering with Oceanid Hospitality has been instrumental in paving our road to recovery post Covid-19 pandemic.

  • As a Hotel General Manager, I worked with Blanka in her capacity as Regional Director of Revenue Management; Blanka provided expertise and very strong analytical skills to the hotel’s commercial team which led the market in RevPar Index for years. When I started my company a few years ago, Blanka was the first person I contacted to provide support on our commercial strategies for our luxury property in Harbour Island, Bahamas. Her ability to take an independent Resort and develop systems, processes, new accounts and revenue management strategies were very instrumental in having the success we had and continue to have.

  • I had the pleasure of working with Blanka at three different properties. We first met working together at a hotel in Fort Lauderdale, where she initially partnered with us as a consultant. While working to open two hotels in Miami Beach, she spearheaded everything having to do with Sales, Distribution Strategies, and Revenue Management. In addition, she was instrumental in negotiating partnerships with Preferred Hotels and Resorts and OTAs. Blanka is a rare find and anyone who partners with her would have nothing but amazing things to gain from that partnership.

  • I had the pleasure of working with Blanka Dewapura when she was the director of sales and marketing for the Atlantic Resort & Spa on Fort Lauderdale Beach. She was not only a client but also a valuable community partner in the various initiatives to promote tourism in our destination. She was the consummate professional at all times.  And, besides her diligence and hard work ethic, she was creative, inventive and groundbreaking in her approach.  I highly recommend her and her company if you are looking for excellence and results.

  • Having had the pleasure of working with Blanka in the past, I can say with certainty that not only does she possess ample expertise in the areas of Sales, Marketing, PR and Operations, but she is someone that leads from the heart. Blanka's high energy, ability to listen, analyze, and take action, are perfectly complemented with her kindness and personable approach to anyone who interacts with her; she is one of those rare professionals that coworkers can very quickly also call a trusting friend.
