“Guests can participate in hands-on experiences like fruit and native tree planting and guided tours of our hydroponics garden”

What Inspired you to join the hospitality industry, and how did you start?

Growing up in the late 80s in India there were only two professions parents subscribed to. It was either to be a doctor or an engineer. So I was on my way to become an Engineer and gave the entrance tests for the Engineering colleges which was and is very competitive if you are looking for the top institutes. I was about to begin my journey with one of the institutes when a friend of mine took me to the Taj Delhi to attend a seminar on studying in Switzerland and pursuing hospitality. I now started to dream about living and traveling through Europe and while most of the family was against the idea my father supported me and I packed up my bags to pursue hospitality.

What were some of the significant challenges you faced during your years in the hospitality industry and how did you overcome them?

Hospitality industry is not really appreciated in the wider business as a sophisticated

enough industry to attract the best talent. I have been involved in a few alumni forums of universities and the top talent has not had hospitality in their top choices of industries. This is because of lack of awareness and understanding. Now take a couple of minutes to compare our business to others – we have a perishable commodity, its high capital, labor intensive, brand driven, 24 hours and real time customer satisfaction demand, margins are slim and therefore cost management is critical daily and relentlessly, highly regularized, amongst the first couple of industries to be impacted by weather, international events or disasters and we have unique model of management agreement where there are performance guarantees - combine of this and you would be hard pressed to find many that would have all of these variables. I love the industry and the demands it has including managing various stakeholders.

How does your hotel contribute to preserving local culture and traditions, and what experiences can guests expect during their stay?

At Marriott International Fiji resorts, we’re dedicated to preserving Fiji’s vibrant culture as part of our commitment to sustainability and social responsibility. While traditional experiences like the mesmerizing Meke dance performances continue, we’ve evolved to offer a more nuanced engagement with Fijian heritage. Guests can immerse themselves in Fijian culture through enriching experiences such as learning traditional crafts, exploring cultural villages, and engaging with local communities during kava ceremonies and dance & music celebrations. All our four resorts fully support showcases for local artisans, ensuring they receive 100% of the profits with no expenses incurred. Fiji being a multi-ethnic destination and given it’s location in the heart of the South Pacific region, a showcase of Fiji and Pacific culture allows guests to witness cultural highlights such as the Sunset Torch Lighting ceremony and Fire Dancing ritual, cherishing traditions that fosters communal bonds. Through interactive sessions like the local mat and basket weaving, guests gain insight into the cultural significance of traditional craftsmanship and the importance of the coconut tree, known as the “Tree of Life,” in Fijian culture.

For young guests from toddlers to teenagers, our kids clubs provide immersive learning experiences about Fijian traditions and cultures. In essence, Marriott International Fiji resorts provide a gateway for guests to delve into the heart and soul of Fiji, contributing to its cultural preservation while creating lasting memories for generations to come.

What makes your property stand out from others in your region?

Marriott International resorts in Fiji, including Sheraton Fiji Golf & Beach Resort, Sheraton Denarau Villas, Fiji Marriott Resort Momi Bay, and Sheraton Resort & Spa, Tokoriki Island, distinguish themselves through their unwavering commitment to sustainability and environmental stewardship. Through the Marriott Bonvoy Good Travel program, in collaboration with the Mamanuca Environment Society (MES), we annually plant over 10,000 mangroves, 3,000 native and fruit trees, and 1,200 coral plants, significantly contributing to the preservation of Fiji’s ecosystems.

A major initiative is the establishment of a 5-acre organic farm on Denarau Island that is located within the Denarau Golf & Racquet Club landscape that is part of the Sheraton Fiji Resorts portfolio. Partnering with FRIENDS Fiji, the farm has transitioned to fully organic practices, producing over 528 kg of organic produce in 2023. Guests can participate in hands-on experiences like fruit and native tree planting and guided tours of our hydroponics garden, showcasing sustainable farming methods while minimizing environmental impact. The resort champions a ‘No-Till’ farming approach, cultivating a harmonious balance between agriculture and nature. By minimizing soil disturbance and fostering a regenerative ecosystem, we actively contribute to a greener, more environmentally conscious tomorrow. Lemongrass, mint,basil and other herbs are grown on our farm using this eco-conscious method, showcasing our commitment to sustainable agriculture while preserving Fijian cultural heritage.

Pure Sea Boutique Lodge

Nestled amidst the untouched beauty of pristine fynbos, Pure Sea Boutique Lodge stands as a secluded beachfront boutique lodge that fully embraces the essence of minimalist living and barefoot luxury.

Conceived by the impassioned hearts of its founders, this hidden gem was born out of life experiences and the desire to overcome challenges by establishing new rituals that contribute to a healthier lifestyle.

The essence of Pure Sea Boutique Lodge is deeply intertwined with the concept of Biophilic design, extending beyond a mere appreciation for nature to become a celebration of its inherent healing potential. This design philosophy has left an indelible mark on modern aesthetics, advocating for the use of natural materials such as wood, stone, coco, and rattan, along with embracing natural fabrics. The lodge itself becomes a canvas where nature is seamlessly woven into every element—abundant natural light,

spaces that effortlessly merge with the outdoors through oversized windows, and an array of thriving plants.

The lodge’s four luxurious rooms stand as gateways to the African kingdom of mystical connections, promoting creative introspection and tranquil exploration. Purposefully designed and curated, these spaces serve as sanctuaries where guests can intimately bond with nature.

In these stolen moments, Pure Sea Boutique Lodge offers not just a temporary escape but a complete immersion into the enchanting beauty and profound tranquility that defines its essence.

Royal Mansour Marrakech

The Royal Mansour Marrakech is a one-of-a-kind revival of a traditional medina surrounded by gardens and dotted with terracotta-coloured alleys and squares.

A city within a city, with 53 exceptional private riads, well hidden behind mysterious studded doors. No rooms, no floors, no corridors, but a marvelous six-hectare private estate, nestled against the ancient ramparts of the old city, close to its beating heart, the famous Jamaa El Fna square.

The Arabo-Andalusian tradition views the garden as an open-air work of art, a paradise of peace and serenity. With this mindset, the Spanish landscape designer Luis Vallejo has imagined and designed the Royal Mansour Marrakech’s gardens. In 2016, after an

W: www.royalmansour.com

extension project, the hotel opened up to a large landscaped area; Le Jardin offers a 600sqm pool surrounded by seven private pavilions and an outdoor restaurant.

Extensively enlarged in 2021, the new spaces include an herb and vegetable garden as well as a private dining experience elevated above the trees. The property has also designated a new artist’s studio, Atelier d’Artiste, housed in a glass-paneled greenhouse, to host Art Therapy sessions, enhancing the property’s 360-degree approach to wellbeing.

“Our Elite Loyalty program has been highly appreciated by all our repeated customers”

What Inspired you to join the hospitality industry, and how did you start?

After spending a couple of my early years in several corporate companies, I was offered an opportunity in the sales department at a 5-star hotel. During the career shift, I found myself in the field of hospitality where I was determined to excel and grow, learn about the market, how to attract customers, building relationships, the ins and outs of becoming a sales leader. Since then, I have joined various hotel chains, escalated the ladder and added onto my experience to becoming the current Director of Sales & Marketing at Fairmont Amman.

What were some of the significant challenges you faced during your years in the hospitality industry and how did you overcome them?

Due to our geopolitical situation and location, Jordan is affected by the

surrounding countries and any instability. We have witnessed an unstable market and economy at times in addition to the pandemic and recent regional wars. Jordan has nevertheless been affected with the nearby situations thus affecting the market, inbound travel and internal economy. This in turn challenged hotels in marketing the destination and property, receiving inbound travelers and securing business. In each situation and challenge, we used several tools such as online platforms to overcome such obstacles and promote the safe destination and close targets.

What do you think is the future of sustainable tourism in your region, and how is your hotel adapting to these changes?

Sustainability is at the fore-front of our priorities, part of the company’s DNA and long-term commitment. Sustainable tourism is being vastly highlighted and implemented across the region whereas locally, the

How does your hotel contribute to preserving local culture and traditions, and what experiences can guests expect during their stay?

Bringing modern luxury to authentic Jordanian heritage, Fairmont Amman aims to reflect the country’s tradition and raise awareness to tourists and guests on what Jordan has to offer. From traditional food to a warm Jordanian welcome, our hotel uses every opportunity to add the Jordanian touch to every gesture made. Our dedicated coffee station with our popular bellman Raslan welcomes guests and offers them locally made coffee introducing the taste of Jordan as soon as they arrive to the hotel lobby.

“Our primary goal is always maintaining our level, and then seeking opportunity for incremental improvement. ”

What is according to your consistent spa feedback the best part of their experiences when visiting the spa?

The overwhelming feedback from clients is that from the moment of entering the spa, every moment is tranquil, peaceful, and restorative. This atmosphere is the result of a combination of design, materials, lighting, and music, and of course the focus we have on ensuring that Thai culture permeates every interaction the guest experiences to cultivate peace and harmony.

Share with the readers your secret to keeping consistency within the service rendered at the spa? Our brand messaging originates in love. It began with the first generation of owners, and now the second generation of the Thavorn-vongwongse family are dedicated to protecting this key value, and layering in

developments that build on this essential factor. I share this, because our Spa trainer is not concentrating solely on technique, it is critical that the ambience, energy, and attitude of therapists and reception team in the spa are aligned on our culture and purpose. The benefits are in the continual appreciation we receive from guests for their experience. While we have monthly training on the physical delivery of our treatments, we have daily alignments and practices to ensure that as a team we are fully together in the energy we want our guests to experience. This is the where the magic really happens.

What are your short-term goals for the spa in 2024-2025, what can visitors expect?

Our primary goal is always maintaining our level, and then seeking opportunity for incremental improvement. Often people are seeking the next giant leap forward and not concentrating enough attention on

preserving and cultivating the qualities that already exist. Our journey is client centric so all goals are a reflection of this. We believe the outcomes from this approach will lead us toward being experienced by more clients, and perhaps more broadly recognised, however these are secondary outcomes to maintaining and developing excellence.

How do you plan to use your Haute Grandeur Excellence Award to generate new revenue streams?

Firstly, I would like to say that any award is a confirmation for us that the entire team is working in alignment and providing an experience that guests appreciate. Receiving the Haute Grandeur Excellence Award is prestigious and a touching reward for all of us, including our housekeeping team who provide us linens and prepare our space to exacting standards, our Engineering team who ensure that all systems are functioning, and all the resort team who contribute to the guest experience through guest contact, or who are unseen but equally important. News of this award will be shared with guests to provide external credibility of our offering. Our marketing team is excited about the opportunities this award provides to position Chann Spa in what is a very competitive market.

What unique selling point do you have to attract new clients that might be interesting to the readers?

In addition to what we have referred to previously in terms of the soft aspects of

our culture, we are always enthusiastic to share our signature Chann Bamboo Massage, featuring warmed Thai Bamboo cane rollers, I invite you to treat yourself to this wonderfully relaxing treatment that assists to dissolve tension and aches like nothing else. This is also part of our contribution to the brand vision of “Fulfilment through diverse precious experiences and native charm”.
