from Your Palm Beach Guide · host Palm Beach Chamber of Commerce

In this episode of Your Palm Beach Guide, we sit down with Kara DePool, General Manager of the highly anticipated Nora Hotel and a South Florida native whose career began with The Ritz-Carlton in New Orleans before she returned home to help elevate some of West Palm Beach's premier boutique hospitality brands. Kara shares the vision behind Nora Hotel, what it takes to open a hotel from the ground up, and her take on Downtown West Palm Beach's remarkable growth. We also talk leadership, building strong teams, and why community involvement — as a Palm Beach Chamber Ambassador and Dress for Success Palm Beaches Board member — matters so much to her. Get ready for an inside look at one of Palm Beach's most exciting new hotel openings.
