Southern California’s San Manuel Casino has announced the hiring of Afsi Bird as vice president of hotel operations for the resort expansion.
Bird has been in the hotel industry, including luxury hotels and five-diamond resorts, for more than three decades.
San Manuel Casino General Manager Peter Arceo praised the incoming Bird: “We are thrilled to have someone of Afsi’s caliber leading our hotel operations team,” he said. “As we move toward the opening of our resort, we will need Afsi’s vast expertise to ensure we have the right team in place to offer that best-in-class service our guests have come to expect from San Manuel.”
The casino’s resort expansion will be in three phases and will include expanded gaming, a 429 room hotel, additional dining venues, a full-service spa, a rooftop lounge and an event venue with seating for 3,000.
