Jean-Guy de Gabriac: Achieving That "WOW" Experience in a World-Class Spa

Few would argue that the luxury spa industry requires among the highest standards of guest experience in the world, in which every detail is (or should be) designed not just to please you, or relax you, but to transform you into your better self.

Our guest today, Jean-Guy de Gabriac, is one of the world's foremost authorities on luxury spas.

In this episode we discuss:

1. The role of "flow" in every spa
2. How designing the "guest experience" can begin at the architecture level
3. The secret of creating a lasting "wow" experience that keeps guests coming back
4. Much more (including World Wellness Weekend)
