About the Company

Family-owned and family-built, Marc & Rose is an eclectic collection of iconic resorts and hidden gems — each a tribute to place-based sensuality and playful improvisation. Born of an irreverent spirit and a passion for hard work, our collection makes its home across the American West. It embodies the sounds, smells, and colors of iconic landscapes – and it doesn’t come to life without the human heart.

Our passionate team breathes new life into familiar places, imagines original spaces into being, and practices the art of welcome. We consider hospitality an essential part of being human. But it is also a calling — a creative and professional pursuit that requires curiosity, care, and grit. Because the heartbeat of genuine hospitality is always, first and foremost, you.

Practicing Genuine Hospitality Since 1962

Marc & Rose is a company of professionals passionate about opening doors for travelers; about cheering, 'the more the merrier!' as a party of two becomes twenty; about food first and questions later; about sharing stories around a fire and making friends among strangers. We are owner-operators, which enables us to practice high-touch, genuine hospitality within intentionally crafted and sophisticated spaces. By deploying well-earned generational knowledge, we create places that settle the soul and stoke the spirit. Our hospitality emerges at the intersection of empathy, aesthetics, and atmosphere. It is an instrument of connection and care; a practice.

We are committed to fundamentals and to the evolving rhythm of a genuinely warm welcome. That is why we never stop studying people and places, integrating and honing our skills, training our minds and bodies, and reimagining what’s possible. We keep channels open and hearts attuned. It is because of our decades-long devotion to excellence that we are able to practice skillful improvisation and appropriate restraint. With a passion for hard work and genuine hospitality, we leverage our knowledge and lifelong curiosity to build worlds — containers and catalysts for spontaneous joy.

We know that each of us is the host one day; the next, the traveler. Both roles require a willingness to say, “yes” to life and to each other; to step perceptively into the now. At Marc + Rose, what emerges is as magical as it is earnest: a tradition of warm and sophisticated hospitality. We live to welcome.
