Nov. 6, 2012 - PRLog -- SunStream Hotels & Resorts is proud to announce numerous nominations and a top winner at this year’s Lee County Visitor & Convention Bureau's “12th Annual Elaine McLaughlin Outstanding Hospitality Service Awards,” held recently in Fort Myers.

Nominations were received and judged by the Lee County Visitor & Convention Bureau from visitors and locals based on the following criteria: service satisfaction, leadership, work ethic, job knowledge, awareness of Lee County infrastructure and compassion and support for others. As the nomination material states, “Acts of kindness are everyday traits for these nominees and recipients.”

It was the Guest Service Agent, Ibrahim Maaliki, of Pointe Estero Beach Resort, who was chosen as the top recipient in the Accommodations category. Maaliki is a multiple Elaine McLaughlin Outstanding Hospitality Service Awards nominee in the Accommodations category. This year he received numerous compliments with phrases like "unfailingly polite," "good humored," "gentle" and "so focused in helping others that he isn't even aware how his unselfish acts provides guests with an incredible vacation experience."
