Are you an independent or boutique hotel owner who dreams of growing your revenue but feels held back by the challenges of running a lean operation? You’re not alone. Most small properties face similar struggles:
No dedicated sales and marketing department like the big chains.
A small team wearing multiple hats and juggling endless priorities.
A tight marketing budget that leaves Instagram—and its revenue potential—neglected.
You know Instagram can be a game-changer for your property, but the thought of spending hours on marketing overwhelms you. Sound familiar?
At Coconut Creative, we get it. Both co-founders of our agency have worked in hotels and consulted with boutique properties worldwide. We know the unique challenges you face—and the immense potential you have to profit from wellness travelers.
““Wellness tourism is one of the fastest-growing sectors in travel, projected to hit
$1.3 trillion by 2025.””
Yoga retreats are an untapped goldmine for boutique hotels, vacation homes, and eco-lodges.
Travelers are actively seeking destinations that offer peace, relaxation, and unique wellness experiences.
““Wellness travelers spend 53% more per trip than the average tourist, making this the perfect time to position your property as a retreat destination.””
Even Small Properties Can Tap into Wellness Tourism
Wellness travelers aren’t just looking for big resorts. Boutique hotels, vacation homes, eco-lodges, and even casitas and bungalows can thrive in this $1.2 trillion market. By focusing on wellness retreats, you can stand out, fill your calendar, and build long-term relationships with retreat leaders who return year after year.
