The new general manager’s career took a significant turn when he relocated to Charlotte, North Carolina, to seize a unique opportunity at the Ballantyne Resort. He briefly left to join the team at GF Hotels & Resorts’ Hilton Charlotte University Place for two years before returning. Over time, Beattie developed a profound passion for creating exceptional guest experiences inspired by the warmth and charm of the Queen City. He has honed his skills and truly established himself in the Charlotte hospitality scene. His extensive experience in the industry, coupled with his unwavering commitment to providing top-notch service, makes him an asset to any team. GF Hotels & Resorts is thrilled to have Beattie return to work with another one of their esteemed properties.

Beattie finds joy and comfort in the company of his wife, Kara, and their cherished pup, Layla. They have been unwavering sources of support and encouragement throughout his pursuits.
