ISLAND INSIDER: MELISSA LALANDE

Melissa Lalande

Marketing & Communications Manager, Jumeirah Royal Saray Bahrain

Tell us three things that make the marketing side at Jumeirah Royal Saray an exciting role for you…
The diversity of the work is what I enjoy the most. From organising a photo-shoot of our Afternoon Tea, discussing strategies to promote our ballroom to designing a full marketing campaign for our new E-butler service, every day is different and brings challenges and new things to learn. I am also blessed with wonderful colleagues and a very collaborative work environment where creativity is fostered.

What are some of your favourite dining hotspots in Bahrain and why?
I like heading to Block 338 for a nice dinner, there are many options to choose from and I love being able to walk from one restaurant to another and enjoying the best of each place. For a more local flavour, my favourite go to spot is indisputably Foods @ Home in Budaiya. The décor is very charming, and the food is delicious,a perfect pick for a late breakfast on weekends.

Share with us your professional goals for the rest of 2019…
There are still a lot of projects in the pipeline for Jumeirah Royal Saray. We have recently launched our four-bedroom Royal Villas, the most spacious villas in Bahrain, we also opened Al Sarra Ballroom, a beautiful venue to host business events, conferences and weddings. My goal is to continue building up our visibilityand making sure everybody knows about the outstanding facilities and services we offer.
