Context

Meliá recognised early that all-inclusive hospitality could become a setting for meaningful rest and wellbeing, not only for volume and convenience.

The client’s ambition

Paradisus wanted experiential wellbeing formats that could live across several destinations and be delivered by its own teams.

Our role

SUDA collaborated with Paradisus to develop those formats, working across experience design, holistic week curation, content production and team training.

Outcome

The result is both capability and visibility: trained internal teams able to continue delivering the format, and an annual immersive wellbeing week for press and content creators that helps position the brand and its hotels.

Project highlights

From activation to brand identity.

After several years of collaboration, Paradisus adopted SUDA® as its signature immersive wellness experience. It is now permanently implemented across those resorts, with further expansion planned across the brand.

It starts with the team

Before every Holistic Week, immersive experiences were delivered for hotel teams across Front Office, Marketing, Guest Experience, Leadership, Food & Beverage, Spa and Activities, so staff experienced the programme exactly as guests would.

A story that travelled

In each Holistic Week, photographers, filmmakers, journalists and creators produced editorial content alongside the Paradisus marketing team.

Designed around each property, the Holistic Weeks transformed familiar hotel settings into immersive wellbeing environments: lounges became meditation spaces, gardens became yoga studios and sunsets became collective rituals.
