A message from our Founder and Principal
Welcome to HDG Legacy! This company was born from my parents’ dream. They had come from a world away in East Africa to start over in America, the land of opportunity. They bought a rundown Econo Lodge here in Ocala in the summer of 1981 and, just like that, the Saju’s were in the hotel business!
They had an unwavering belief that their hard work and love for people would lead to success. While at the time, our vocabulary did not have the word ‘People-Centric’, we immediately realized the importance of having happy guests, and happy people to run the business was the key to success.
That determination, and a people-centric point of view, led to a growth in the family business, and different divisions over the decades, with HDG Legacy founded in 2024. It’s in our DNA to be brilliant in the basics of hospitality. We believe true success is shared success built on relationships, driven by purpose, and sustained by the strength of our interconnected approach.
Although we have more than 40 years behind us, the opportunities and possibilities for Legacy are part of a story that is only just beginning. As a devoted hotelier with a passion for hospitality, development and investment, my aim each day is to live our values and transform them into opportunities that benefit the people and the world around us.
If that also sounds like you, you’re in the right place. Let’s start the conversation.
