Hurricane Francine Update: Property Closure and Community Preparedness
Dear Valued Guests, Friends, Community Members, and Essential Workers,
As Hurricane Francine approaches our area, we want to provide you with an important update regarding our operations and express our gratitude to those working tirelessly to ensure everyone's safety.
Per our standard emergency protocols and in the interest of safety for all, we have decided to temporarily close our property. All guests have been successfully evacuated, and our facilities are now secured in preparation for the anticipated Hurricane.
For over 40 years, Hotel Maison Pierre Lafitte has stood strong in the face of many hurricanes. We've weathered numerous storms, including the most recent major hurricanes, Katrina and Ida. Our experience and resilience give us confidence as we face Hurricane Francine. While each storm presents its unique challenges, our commitment to safety and our community remains unwavering.
We would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to our dedicated staff and security team, with a special mention to our brave staff and security members who will be remaining at the property during the storm. Their hard work throughout this week has been truly exceptional.
A HUGE SHOUT OUT goes to CRYSTAL and AMANDA, team members who have gone above and beyond in helping us prepare our historic properties for the anticipated impact of Hurricane Francine. Their tireless efforts in securing our facilities, assisting with guest evacuations, and implementing our emergency procedures have been nothing short of exemplary. The care and dedication they've shown in preserving our heritage while ensuring safety is deeply appreciated.
In times like these, we're reminded of the importance of community and the selfless service of many. These individuals, along with countless others, are working tirelessly to help members of our community during this uncertain time. Their dedication and bravery do not go unnoticed.
We urge all community members to stay safe, follow the guidance of local authorities, and keep informed about Hurricane Francine's progress through official channels. We will continue to monitor the situation closely and provide updates as they become available. The safety and well-being of our guests, staff, and community remain our highest priority.
Thank you for your understanding and your cooperation during this challenging time. Together, we will weather this storm, as we have done many times before.
Stay safe,
Your Unsinkable Family at Hotel Maison Pierre Lafitte
