Continuing Its Commitment To Offer Exhilarating Polo Experiences Around The World, St. Regis Launches Dedicated Polo Website
St. Regis Hotels & Resorts is proud to announce Nacho Figueras, the world's most recognized polo player, as the first-ever St. Regis Connoisseur, offering St. Regis guests access to some of the greatest polo matches and experiences globally. Continuing to celebrate its commitment to the international sport of polo -- the "Sport of Kings" -- St. Regis will collaborate with Figueras to enhance the brand's presence in the polo arena as well as to develop an exclusive Polo website, curated by Nacho himself.
St. Regis has long been associated with the world of polo, beginning at the turn of the last century, when polo matches on Governors Island in Manhattan were highlights of the New York social scene and where St. Regis' founding family, the Astors, were a prominent fixture. Through its partnership with Nacho Figueras and its dedicated online polo portal, St. Regis continues to offer guests remarkable opportunities to experience the exhilarating sport at the brand's spectacular destinations around the world.
"Nacho Figureas is without a doubt the international face of polo today, and we are thrilled to have him as our first St. Regis Connoisseur," stated Paul James, Global Brand Leader for St. Regis Hotels & Resorts and The Luxury Collection Hotels & Resorts. "From Buenos Aires to Beijing, Nacho is recognized as one of the world's pre-imminent polo players, and he brings an incredible amount of awareness to St. Regis' commitment to the sport and lifestyle."
"It is an honor for me to be the first St Regis connoisseur as we share the same passion and commitment to the traditions and heritage of the sport of polo. I am excited to work with St. Regis to bring awareness and appreciation to such an iconic international sport."
In his role as the St. Regis Polo Connoisseur Nacho Figueras will work as a brand ambassador, helping to shape future guest experiences and cultivate the next generation of St. Regis guests. Additionally, Figueras has worked with St. Regis to develop an exclusive polo website, a dedicated location for all elements of the illustrious sport and the lifestyle of those who follow it. The site features a global calendar of polo events, information on the fundamentals of the sport, advice on etiquette and what to wear, exciting polo related offers available at St. Regis hotels, and Nacho Figueras, first-ever St. Regis Connoisseur, will share insider tips on his personal polo techniques and insights about his travel. Launched in May of 2010, St. Regis' new polo portal is closely linked to the St. Regis Aficionado program, designed to provide guests access to once-in-a-lifetime experiences and extraordinary events at the best addresses in the world.
