The Sazant family of the Sagamore Hotel in South Beach depends upon the love and support from each other to keep their business going strong. At the Sagamore Hotel, it’s a family affair. Jennifer Taplin Sazant and her husband, Neil, are involved in all aspects of the business. As president of the hotel, Neil is constantly in contact with his associates to make sure everything runs smoothly. Jennifer, who co-owns the Hollen and Jennifer Vintage Showroom in Bay Harbour, is also involved in the workings of the hotel, providing support to her parents and husband and taking care of their two children, Connor, 8, and Sydney, 10.
