Our Leadership

Economos Properties is a family owned company started by Nick Economos, Sr. in 1969 that has grown from small motels in Norfolk, Virginia to full service and upper upscale hotels in high barrier to entry markets. In 2002 Dan Economos and Nick Economos, Jr. joined the company and continued to expand and develop hotels throughout Florida and most recently Nevada.

Nick Economos, Sr. was born in Melbourne, Australia in 1950 and spent his childhood in Greece and Canada. In 1969 he moved to Norfolk, Virginia from Vancouver in British Columbia, Canada where he founded Economos Properties. He purchased his first motel at 19 years old and over the next 13 years acquired 10 additional motels and developed a restaurant chain called A&W. In the 1980s he developed two full service Omni hotels with two high energy nightclubs attached to them. In 1992 he moved his family and corporate office to Boca Raton, FL where he resides today.
