pa parties have grown in popularity and, when done right, can bring in a great deal
of revenue. But, if proper planning is not made to ensure that logistical requirements of a spa party is covered, group party services can pose complex nightmares
in booking, facilities management and treatment preparation.
“Spa parties give guests the rare opportunity to spa together within an exclusive private
space,” explains Shannon Stringert, director of spa, salon, & fitness at Cosmopolitan of Las
Vegas, Sahra Spa & Hammam in Nevada. “While spas have always been popular for an
individual or couples’ retreat, now more than ever, we are seeing the increase in requests for
group spa and wellness experiences.”
