Ever wondered what life without deadlines and work calls looks like? That is how leisure vacations are described - a time to unwind, restore the body's energy and relax. Even though leisure hotels are mentally relaxing spaces for visitors, a lot goes behind the functionality and design of these summer recreational spaces for hoteliers and architects to leave a long-lasting impression on their users.
HOSPITALITY ENGAGEMENTS
Leisure in hospitality has been a boon post-pandemic. Not only do visitors volunteer to indulge in bespoke activities, but desire to spend quality time with their family and loved ones. "Leisure, in my opinion, is an experience and leisure activities significantly contribute towards guest attraction and retention that further lead to guest satisfaction. We let our guests enjoy specially curated experiences designed to bring focus in the mind, body and spirit through activities that help re-connect with each other," says Neeraj Lumb, Director of Rooms - Sheraton Grand Bengaluru Whitefield Hotel & Convention Center.
Hoteliers also ensure maximum engagement of their guests with summer leisure activities via swimming pools, spas, tailored cocktails, bars and grills etc.
