Salamander
Founder's Letter 2025
Welcome to the latest issue
In the past 12 months, much has happened within our Salamander Collection. We have completed a magnificent renovation of Salamander Washington DC, which included the addition of a dual-level Salamander Spa and the opening of the highly acclaimed restaurant Dōgon by Kwame Onwuachi. We also opened a beautiful new restaurant at Aspen Meadows called West End Social and transformed our renowned Packard's Steakhouse at Innisbrook. Hotel Bennett in Charleston was named among the world's top 20 hotels by Condé Nast Traveler, while Salamander Middleburg retained its triple Forbes Five-Star rating, placing it among rarefied company. At Half Moon, an exquisite new villa experience is on the horizon, and in January 2025 we were honored to welcome the iconic PGA National Resort in Palm Beach Gardens into the Salamander Family.
These accomplishments are the reflection of our entire team. Every day, I am thankful for the dedication of our service professionals who represent our diverse style of hospitality through our core values of honesty, authenticity, respect and passion.
From stunning spreads of travel photography to tips on how to play some of our Collection's finest golf course holes, I hope you enjoy the wide range of stories in this issue of our magazine, and that you further enjoy your visit to one of our locations.
Welcome home,
