MIA Hospitality Management Expands to Seven Hotels in First Year
MIA Hospitality Management reported growth to seven hotels, one rooftop venue, and more than 1,000 rooms in its first year. The Miami-based company added its first third-party management agreement and became an approved franchise manager for Marriott and Hyatt. Its portfolio includes properties in Miami, Fort Lauderdale, and Melbourne, Florida.
MIA Hospitality Management launched in September 2025, founded by developer Robert Finvarb and hospitality executive Brian Vujnovic. Its first-year portfolio spans Miami, Fort Lauderdale, and Melbourne, Florida, with seven hotels, a rooftop venue, and over 1,000 rooms, supported by 250-plus employees.
The company’s first outside management deal came with Hyatt Place Melbourne Airport, a 143-room property added July 1, 2026. That agreement also brought Runway Rooftop Bar & Grill under its oversight. It is also approved to manage franchised properties for Marriott and Hyatt.
The expansion could affect travelers, hotel employees, and local hospitality markets in Miami, Fort Lauderdale, and Melbourne. More managed rooms may broaden lodging choices and create or sustain jobs, while the rooftop venue may give nearby residents another social option. For owners, an approved franchise manager may offer an alternative operating partner. These effects remain uncertain and depend on execution, market conditions, and how each property performs.
