Our Team

Theresa Feeney

 

Theresa is a high calibre, well-respected travel professional with a wealth of experience in both UK and international hotel sales and marketing. A bright, vivacious personality is underpinned by a steely determination to get the job done and a total dedication to achieving results. She has spent much of her career focusing on luxury international hotels, representing renowned places such as The Phoenician in Arizona, Necker Island, Hotel La Residencia in Mallorca, Palazzo Avino in Italy, Sheraton Pine Cliffs in Portugal and Principe di Savoia in Milan.

 

In November 2000, Highlife Marketing successfully launched Richard Branson’s game reserve Ulusaba in South Africa having never worked in this market before. The success of Highlife Marketing is thanks to the strong, long term relationships Theresa has built during the years prior to setting up her own venture. As Director of Sales for Starwood’s Luxury Collection, and subsequently Sales & Marketing Director for Virgin’s Hotel Collection Limited Edition By Virgin, she nurtured enduring and supportive links with agents and marketing partners across many different channels of the travel and leisure industry. This, coupled with an innate ability to develop and implement innovative sales and marketing strategies, makes Highlife Luxury Travel Marketing a winning choice for representation in the UK.
