Donn Davis

Donn Davis and Michael Ryan have known one another for over 12 years.  “We met when a company I was CEO of, Exclusive Resorts, was starting to look to buy into high-end development projects. I have met personally with Mike many times over the years and consider him a trusted business colleague. He was one of Exclusive Resorts’ development partners and we would do business with him again in his next phase or his next project.”

Describing Ryan as an “excellent developer,” Davis says, “He is passionate, tenacious and determined to deliver excellence in both his hospitality product and his real estate product. He has vision to create significant, valuable and lasting developments. He is both creative and bottom line oriented, which allows Mike to successfully ‘connect the dots’ on large projects.”

“Mike is a pioneer, one of the few who understands that consumers who buy real estate must be your first priority and you must ‘super-serve’ them. That is not a mindset that traditional hospitality companies have,” he added.
