The Guest Service Agent welcomes guests, completes check-in and check-out, manages reservations and room assignments, answers questions, processes payments, and responds professionally to requests or concerns. Candidates typically need excellent communication and customer-service skills, a friendly and confident manner, basic computer and cash-handling ability, and flexibility to work weekends, holidays, and changing shifts. Hotel, front-desk, or hospitality experience is helpful, though training may be provided. The role requires attention to detail, professional presentation, cultural awareness, and the ability to remain calm while resolving problems in a busy resort environment. Familiarity with Marriott systems and knowledge of Maui attractions are advantages.
