Spa Design & Styling

The aesthetic appeal and appearance of your Spa is crucial. Taking into account that 95% of Spa goers choose a Spa based on its facilities and look. With our extensive understanding of the Spa environment we provide an elite design and styling service that considers your brand identity, the location, climate, desired ambience, optimal guest experience and operational flow.

We start this process by understanding what your Spa needs, aligning it with your budget, and tailoring a conceptual styling brief and approximate costing for your set up. We proceed to the next stage of costing and Project Management which may include renovation, FFE procurement, delivery and hands on styling. We transform your Spa into a sanctuary that your guests will feel drawn to and a space that your team can be proud of.

Spa Menu & Collateral

A well designed Spa Menu is your key sales and marketing tool. We consider your brand identity and your typical guest demographic when developing the text for a Spa Menu with our tailored spa rituals that will embrace a holistic philosophy for the mind, body and soul. To make your Spa Menu stand out and resonate with your brand, we take a lot of pride in this area due to the important role it plays within your business. This simple investment into a well designed Spa Menu can have your business thriving immediately.

Spa Audits

Spa Audits are a crucial process in grooming your Spa and team to provide a 5-star guest experience and service at all times. With this service we visit the Spa as a mystery guest and evaluate the quality of your Spa, Services and Team using our detailed guest journey evaluation and our Spa expertise. In the strictest confidence and with your specific criteria in mind, we provide a comprehensive report that reviews the entire Spa journey from making an appointment, continuing through the duration of the entire experience right through until the farewell. The Spa facilities and overall ambiance is also measured within this report so that you have a complete picture of guest satisfaction aligning with the areas of focus for improvement and growth.

Spa Management

The Spa industry has grown from strength to strength. We often see exceptional Spa therapists promoted into Spa Management positions prior to gaining any real training or experience in business and leadership.  A new Spa Manager is often poorly equipped to understand and execute the key tasks required of the role which affects the potential profitability of your Spa. Our Spa Consultants support the Professional Development of your Spa Manager so that your business can thrive and produce consistent revenue. We work with you by making scheduled visits to the Spa along with weekly calls to provide the Spa Manager with guidance and direction to meet KPIs and accountability for your business. This service is an investment in your overall profitability and team’s success.
