Because of his passion and eagerness to learn, Earle was rapidly promoted to positions of front desk manager, dining room manager, sales and catering manager and eventually, Assistant Innkeeper. In 1982, Earle made the move to Naples, Florida, vowing to never shovel snow again. Since then, Earle’s career spans over 35 years working as an accounting executive for upscale Florida resorts and clubs, including the Naples Beach Hotel, The Amelia Island Company, and Indian River Plantation. In 1999, Earle joined SunStream Hotels & Resorts serving as the Director of Finance for 7 years. In 2006, Earle had an opportunity to fulfill a lifelong dream of owning his own hotel and purchased the Anton Valley Hotel in El Valle de Anton, Panama.
