TMC Hospitality was founded in 2016 by Philip Bates as an innovative branch of the TMC Group, aiming to revolutionize the hospitality industry through purposeful disruption. As a progressive hotel development and management company, TMC Hospitality is dedicated to transforming hospitality from a mere service into a unique and memorable experience. The corporation operates two distinct hotel brands, Bode and Drift, alongside the Buttonwood Farm & Winery, each catering to the concept of social group travel and tailored experiences. Bode, situated in Nashville, challenges traditional travel norms by offering flexible spaces that combine the aesthetic and comfort of vacation rental homes with the refined amenities of boutique hotels. On the other hand, Drift, which boasts locations in San Jose del Cabo, Santa Barbara, Palm Springs, and Nashville, presents a modern hotel concept designed for independent and group travelers who prioritize adventure and cultural immersion. Drift’s establishments feature minimalist yet thoughtfully intentional details and amenities that appeal to this demographic.
