This week, Inn at Haven Harbour staff celebrated International Housekeepers Week. Each year, the week serves as a special opportunity for us to acknowledge the outstanding efforts of our housekeeping team and thank them for a continued job well done.
Our inn's five buildings, 19 guest rooms and suites and occasional wedding or special event pose the serious need for a reliable, in-house housekeeping crew.
"Things change quickly," said Inn Manager Jenny Nelson. "We have high standards and a fast-paced environment that most contracted cleaning services can't handle."
Having on-site housekeepers also allows for greater buy-in from team members, enhancing the family environment that a majority of employees at Haven Harbour Marina Resorts cite as their most enjoyable aspect of work.
"I enjoy working as a team," said Housekeeper Jackie Neubert. "It feels great when we accomplish tasks together, all in an effort to better the guest experience."
All housekeepers are local to the Kent County area, some of whom now returning to classes at high school or college.
It's not every day nor every business that quality team members arrive to work willing and ready to accomplish the day's tasks. But for our crew the decision is quite simple, possibly due to the fact that Haven Harbour is not just any business – we are family.
