Cap Juluca Names Gary S. Thulander General Manager

In yet another milestone in its progress under new ownership, the renowned Caribbean resort of Cap Juluca in Anguilla announced it has named Gary S. Thulander as its new general manager. The announcement was made by Hansjoerg Maissen, Cap Juluca’s Miami-based asset manager.

Mr. Thulander’s appointment follows the withdrawal of John Vasatka as the potential General Manager of Cap Juluca, owing solely to insurmountable challenges in securing suitable schooling on Anguilla for Vasatka’s young children.

Mr. Thulander has Caribbean experience which extends beyond his current St. Lucia resort hotel, having been food and beverage manager at Little Dix in Virgin Gorda. He has five-star experience as resort manager of the magnificent Boulders Resort in Scottsdale, assistant manager of The Williamsburg Inn, and room service manager of the Ritz-Carlton Boston.

Also relevant for his coming time at Cap Juluca, Thulander has construction/opening experience (St. Lucia), and has experience with resort hotels with a residential villa component (Boulders, Equinox and St. Lucia).

Many of his hotels have had spa, golf and tennis facilities. He also spent seven years at seaside hotels and restaurants on Cape Cod in Massachusetts, so he is used to vacationers seeking a sun and beach vacation.

An American, Thulander received his college degree in Hotel Administration from the University of New Hampshire. He has received numerous hospitality awards, honors and recognitions and is a member of a broad array of hospitality and culinary associations.
