Our Track Record
Spa launch advisory across GCC & Africa
I Feel Spa International has advised on the pre-opening and startup phases of spa facilities across the GCC, East Africa, and the Indian Ocean Islands. Our engagement model is designed for markets where experienced spa management talent is scarce: we work remotely with the management team you appoint, giving them the systems, SOPs, training and weekly performance reviews they need to run the spa with confidence from day one. We do not operate the spa or act as its manager, and outside the UAE we do not work on-site.
Our launch advisory is particularly valuable for hotels opening in emerging markets: Kenya, Tanzania, Oman, Qatar, and Bahrain are all markets where the absence of experienced local spa management talent makes the startup phase unusually risky. A poorly managed spa launch establishes patterns — in pricing, service delivery, guest expectations, and team culture — that are extremely difficult and expensive to correct later.
Our startup packages are available as standalone engagements (pre-opening plus 6 months) or as extensions of our full spa development service. Contact us to discuss engagement timelines and fee structures for your specific project.
