Terre Blanche Hotel Spa Golf Resort in Provence has appointed Alain Mourgues as director of Terre Blanche Hotel and Terre Blanche Spa.

He will take up the role on April 18th, 2017.

In his new role, Mourgues will oversee operations and strategies for the hotel and spa, simultaneously driving its guest satisfaction and maximising profitability.

Mourgues joins from his most recent position as hotel manager at InterContinental Bordeaux Le Grand Hotel, prior to which he was the hotel’s deputy general manager from 2010.

As a graduate of the Ecole Hôtelièr de Lausanna, he has always been fascinated by the hospitality industry and began his career at Starwood Hotels & Resorts Groups under the Le Méridien brand and their two largest Parisian units.

He later joined Grand Hôtel de Saint-Jean-de-Luz & Spa as hotel manager.

Commenting on his appointment, Mourgues stated: “I am excited to be joining such a well-respected and leading hotel, with its innovating outlook in all of its offering, from gastronomy and spa, to its plethora of activities.”

Nestled in unspoilt lush nature and offering the best of authentic Provence, Terre Blanche resort is however easy to reach, a 35-minute drive from Cannes and 45 minutes from Nice International airport.

The five-star hotel is designed like a Provençal village on a hillside, with 115 Suites and Villas each with a private terrace and a unique view over the surrounding nature and landscape.

The hotel infinity pool overlooks the resort, offering a breathtaking panorama of the hills and their perched villages.
