Today we’d like to introduce you to Nicolas Lopez Segura.
Hi Nicolas, please kick things off for us with an introduction to yourself and your story.
Originally from France, I’ve always been drawn to the United States and its entrepreneurial spirit. I moved here to pursue my studies and earned a Master’s degree in International Business. After graduating, I decided to stay in the U.S. and began working in real estate, where I had the opportunity to connect with many international investors.
Over time, I noticed a recurring challenge: many of these investors lived abroad and needed someone they could trust to manage their properties locally. That need became the foundation of my journey. What started as helping a few clients quickly grew through word of mouth.
The turning point came when one client called me and said, “I just bought a small hotel—would you like to manage it?” That moment marked the beginning of a new chapter and solidified my path into property and hospitality management, ultimately leading me to where I am today.
Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
Like most entrepreneurial journeys, it hasn’t been a smooth road. Building something from the ground up comes with constant challenges, long hours, and moments of uncertainty. There were times when I had to learn quickly, adapt on the fly, and push through obstacles without any guarantees.
That said, challenges have never discouraged me. Hard work and problem-solving are simply part of the process, and I’ve always embraced them. I’m naturally resilient, and each difficulty strengthened my experience, sharpened my judgment, and reinforced my commitment to what I’m building. Looking back, those challenges are what made the journey meaningful and sustainable.
As you know, we’re big fans of Segura Luxury LLC. For our readers who might not be as familiar what can you tell them about the brand?
My business was built to serve investors and property owners who value trust, performance, and long-term vision. We specialize in real estate and hospitality management, with a strong focus on high-end residential properties, vacation rentals, and boutique hotels. Our role goes far beyond day-to-day operations — we act as true partners to our clients, managing assets as if they were our own.
What sets us apart is our international perspective combined with deep local expertise. Having worked closely with foreign and U.S.-based investors, we understand the unique challenges of owning property from afar. We provide a seamless, hands-on approach that covers everything from operations and guest experience to revenue optimization and brand positioning.
Brand-wise, I’m most proud of the reputation we’ve built. Our brand stands for reliability, discretion, and consistency. We are known for delivering high standards, personalized service, and transparent communication, even in complex or fast-moving situations. Growth has always come organically, driven by trust and word of mouth rather than volume.
What I want readers to know is that our company is not just a management firm — it’s a long-term partner. We focus on quality over quantity, thoughtful expansion, and creating value for both owners and guests. Every property we manage reflects our commitment to excellence, resilience, and a refined, people-first approach to hospitality and real estate.
So, before we go, how can our readers or others connect or collaborate with you? How can they support you?
People can work with us in several ways, depending on their goals. We collaborate with property owners and investors who are looking for a trusted partner to manage, optimize, and elevate their real estate or hospitality assets. Whether it’s a high-end residential property, a vacation rental, or a boutique hotel, we focus on building long-term relationships based on transparency and performance.
We’re also open to collaborations with developers, designers, hospitality professionals, and service providers who share our standards and vision for quality. Strategic partnerships are an important part of our growth, especially when they enhance guest experience and operational excellence.
Supporting our brand starts with engagement — following our journey, sharing our work, and recommending us to like-minded owners and investors. Most of our growth has come through referrals, and we value community and collaboration as much as results.
