Feasibility for Success.
After years of working with hotel developers, resort owners, and hospitality investors across the world, there is one thing that still surprises me. Not occasionally. Consistently. - The number of wellness projects that skip the feasibility phase entirely.
I do not mean that they commission a poor feasibility study, or a rushed one, or one that asks the wrong questions. I mean that many projects - significant ones, with serious capital behind them - move from concept to architecture to construction without a dedicated spa and wellness feasibility process at any point. The phase that costs the least and saves the most simply does not happen.
What takes its place? Assumptions. Enthusiasm. Personal preferences. A sense that because the hotel will be beautiful, the spa will follow. A belief that because a competitor has a spa, this property needs one too. Sometimes a line in a brand standard document that says 'wellness facility required' is treated as sufficient justification for a multi-million euro investment.
