Luxury F&B J-1 Program

Description of the Host Property:
On Southern California’s sun-drenched Pacific coast just north of San Diego, Park Hyatt Aviara Resort lies on the north shore of Batiquitos Lagoon – a vast protected wildlife sanctuary and an enclave of natural beauty. From atop the highest ridge, overlooking the ocean and the lagoon, the AAA Five Diamond resort provides a respite from the ordinary. Revel in the coastal lifestyle at our new pools or let expansive outdoor lawns be the backdrop for a big event. Dramatic enhancements include a newly conceived grand lobby and re-imagined culinary offerings.

Description of the Training:
Gain invaluable skills and knowledge in the Food and Beverage department of a world-leading luxury hotel/resort through a J-1 hospitality internship or traineeship program at the Park Hyatt Aviara Resorts. During your program, you will receive training and mentorship from industry leaders in the F&B field as you rotate through different outlets on the property.

ITN and ODYSSEY will be on hand to provide you with the very best personalized service from the time that you arrive in the United States until your departure from the United States upon completion of your program.
