Alyssa Durivou, General Manager, Eau Spa, Eau Palm Beach Resort & Spa

We are excited to feature Alyssa this month in the FSA Spa Spotlight and wish to acknowledge our gratitude for her contribution and assistance in making the FSA EAUachella Event at Eau Spa this past May such a wonderful experience and so success for our spa community.

Alyssa started her career at Eau Spa as a Spa Receptionist with WTS in 2013 where she had the opportunity to grow both personally and professionally, with best-in-class guidance and support. She accomplished operational expertise for several spas within the portfolio, including the Chateau on the Lake Missouri, the Intercontinental Miami, the Continuum South Beach, and the Trump National Doral Miami.

Her hard work and dedication for her job opened up the opportunity as Corporate National Task Force Director for WTS in 2017. By 2018 Alyssa became the Interim Task Force Director for the spa at Trump Doral Miami of which she spent almost 1 year managing and building up the spa team.

By September 2018, WTS promoted Alyssa to Eau Spa General Manager of Spa and Leisure at Eau Palm Beach Resort and Spa. To announce her promotion, an impressive statement was released from WTS to the spa community. It read “It is a great honor to announce the promotion of our esteemed colleague, Alyssa Durivou, to Eau Spa General Manager of Spa and Leisure. Alyssa will oversee all of the operations of Eau Spa, Fitness, AquaNuts, COAST and Tennis. She has been with the WTS International team since 2013, and has proven herself time and time again at several properties by successfully building client relationships, creating and implementing efficient systems, upholding Forbes Five-Star standards of service excellence, and the WTS Basics to Excellence Standards of Loyalty, Enthusiasm, Integrity, Strong Work Ethic, Unity and Teamwork, Responsibility, and Excellence.  I invite you to please join me in welcoming her to new role!”

Alyssa has certainly learned the art of wellness as she continues to exceed in balancing both work and home life. As General Manager for Eau Spa, she continues to demonstrate her leadership skills and commitment for her spa team and also recognizes the importance of her family and personal life.

Alyssa is a mother of 2 young children, a 7 year old son and 5 year old daughter. She is also expecting twin boys in August and “glowing”! Alyssa takes great pride and joy in taking her son to Karate to proudly watch him compete in Taekwondo.  Family beach trips are on the top of her to-do list and a personal favorite. The significance of spending time with her husband, children and parents is something that she cherishes. Alyssa is very family oriented and finds it her #1 priority in life.

Prior to motherhood Alyssa was a Ballet Dancer and Instructor. She taught Ballet, Tap, Jazz, and Modern, but contributed in many other forms of dance. She competed in National Dance competitions throughout her High School and College days and was Captain of the dance team at Royal Palm Beach High School. Alyssa graduated with dance honors.

Inspiring people is a key passion for Alyssa which explains her success and why she is so well respected and beloved by her spa team and peers.
