You know someone is making a difference when people stop referring to them by their job title. At the Courtyard By Marriott Santo Domingo, Maria is known as "The Mom of the Courtyard." For more than two decades, she's been the person colleagues count on, the familiar face guests remember, and the associate who quietly helps create a sense of belonging for everyone around her. During hurricanes and other emergencies, she has volunteered to stay on property to support guests and fellow associates. She's trusted to prepare rooms for brand audits, train new team members, and step in wherever help is needed. But what’s remembered most is they way she shows up for others. Her colleagues describe her as someone who gives freely, offers help without hesitation, and expects nothing in return. In hospitality, some of the most important work happens behind the scenes. This International Housekeepers Week, we're celebrating associates like Maria whose care, pride, and attention to detail help create memorable stays for guests around the world. Their impact lives on in the comfort they create, the care they show, and the lasting impressions guests take with them long after checkout. If you're looking for a career where small acts can make a lasting difference, explore opportunities to join our team and help create moments like Maria does: https://marr.in/6045BGufWF #BeginBelongBecome

For Nino, Explore by Marriott Bonvoy helped bring together a group of friends whose connection began eight years ago during a summer exchange program in Yellowstone. What started as “just a summer job” became a lasting friendship, with the group reuniting each year to celebrate Nino’s birthday in a new destination. This year, friends traveled from London, Dublin, Milan and Trieste to meet in Tirana, Albania. Together, they explored the city, discovered its vibrant culture and cuisine, and created new memories. Their stay at Tirana Marriott Hotel added another special moment, with genuine hospitality and thoughtful touches that made Nino feel truly celebrated. The Explore program gives eligible associates opportunities to experience Marriott's global portfolio, create lasting memories with loved ones, and connect with the people and places that make travel meaningful. For Nino, these journeys are a reminder that “wherever we are in the world, we’re never far from home.” Because hospitality isn't just what associates provide—it’s something they can experience, wherever their travels take them.

Not all engineering careers start in engineering. Anastasia began in guest services. Melanie started in housekeeping. Today, both are engineering leaders at Marriott. As Anastasia puts it, “Get in the door. The wonderful world of Marriott has so many avenues, and you truly won’t know your true calling until you immerse yourself in it.” Their career journeys reflect what happens when people are given the opportunity to move across disciplines, learn new skills, connect with mentors, and find community through programs like Marriott's Associate Resource Groups. Engineering may not be where their stories started, but it’s where their journeys led.
