Meet Marco Calderone, General Manager
Marco Calderone has been appointed General Manager of Le Frégate Provence. With an international background in the upscale hospitality sector, he is tasked with driving the resort's repositioning and supporting its new strategic direction.
Of Italian origin, Marco Calderone has a long-standing career in the hospitality industry. A hotel manager since 2012, he brings extensive experience gained during nearly a decade with Marriott International. His career has seen him manage large-scale properties in Italy, Africa, and the Middle East, while also overseeing various hotel opening, renovation, and repositioning projects.
This international experience—spanning both the resort and business tourism sectors—represents a major asset for supporting the development of Le Frégate Provence.
A VISION FOCUSED ON THE GUEST EXPERIENCE
Beyond his international experience, Marco Calderone brings a strong vision for the resort to Le Frégate Provence. "Here at Frégate, my goal is to restore the resort to its full glory. I want Frégate to once again become a benchmark in the tourism world—and in the minds of our guests—as a premier destination for seminars or for couples and families visiting the South of France," explains the new General Manager.
To achieve this, his mission is to guide the resort's repositioning by focusing on the elements he believes define a great hotel: committed teams, impeccable service quality, and—beyond mere service—a genuine guest experience. Structural improvements will support this ambition while preserving the venue's unique soul.
A strong proponent of hands-on management, Marco Calderone intends to be fully involved in the establishment's daily operations, engaging closely with both staff and guests. Convinced that human values are central to a hotel's success, he aims to foster a shared culture so that every visitor senses the resort's identity and spirit the moment they arrive.
Finally, this vision is coupled with a desire to strengthen ties between Le Frégate Provence and the local region by showcasing local artisans, producers, suppliers, and partners. This commitment aligns with the establishment's CSR initiatives and the ambition to make Le Frégate Provence a resort whose values are as strong as its setting.
