Limpidus is excited to announce that Joe Sebestyen has joined the company as Director of Development Limpidus USA. With over 20 years of experience in hotels, timeshares, and operations, Sebestyen brings a wealth of knowledge and a proven track record of success in the hospitality industry.

Marcos Argenti, CEO of Limpidus LATAM & Caribe , expressed his enthusiasm about Sebestyen’s appointment. "We are thrilled to have Joe join the Limpidus team. His extensive experience and deep understanding of both hotel operations and timeshare management align perfectly with our mission to deliver superior cleaning and operational solutions. Joe’s expertise in optimizing operations and improving quality standards will be instrumental as we continue to expand our footprint in the U.S. market."

Sebestyen"s impressive career includes managing a portfolio of 11 hotels with Marriott International, where he played a key role in developing brand standards and balanced scorecards for sales and operations. His leadership was further demonstrated during his tenure as President of the Board of Directors of two timeshare resorts, where he successfully optimized operations, including housekeeping, solar initiatives, Employee Retention Credits, and strategic direction for legacy properties. His decision to join Limpidus was driven by the significant improvements he observed in resort quality and cost structure during Limpidus"s first year handling housekeeping services for those properties.

Sebestyen has also consulted with Fortune 100 companies, universities, and commercial conference centers, including IBM, Georgetown University, and USPS, guiding them through the consulting phase to turnkey startups. At Cornell University, he facilitated a program designed to deepen understanding of conference centers within the Professional Development Program.

As Limpidus continues to revolutionize housekeeping standards in the hospitality industry, Sebestyen’s addition to the team strengthens the company’s commitment to providing cost-effective, high-quality cleaning solutions that meet the evolving needs of the market.

A recent survey by the Timeshare Board Members Association revealed that 89% of timeshare association board members are concerned about housekeeping issues. Limpidus has been at the forefront of addressing these concerns, as noted by Marcos Argenti in an interview with Shep Altshuler, publisher of TimeSharing Today.
