This last week, I received from a European spa architect the floor plan and photos of a new spa in a hotel in Europe.  The pictures are beautiful!  from an aesthetic perspective, it is a “master piece”!  But looking at the floor plan, the analysis is very different:  7,000 square feet with only 2 treatment rooms, and all the rest is amenities…  Not even a retail space…

The potential income of such a spa will never even pay for the maintenance costs!  When designing a spa, the spa designer or spa architect must value the ROI (return on investment) as much as the aesthetics of the spa!!
