Guide to Hotel and Resort Developers News and Trends

Gain information about recent hotel and resort developers news and trends

By L. Newton


Hotel and resort developers' trends have seen changes during the past few decades. Hotel builders and resort builders are changing their building focus to attract and accommodate the changing lives and needs of society.

Hotels and resorts have been a part of many families' vacationing for many years. Yet recently the way that people vacation has caused a turn in the way that hotel and resort developers design their buildings. When checking hotel and resort developers news and trends, consider the following angles:

1. Hotel and resort developers design facilities to attract people.

2. Some hotel and resort developers target a specific group of society.

3. Hotel developers research potential vacation spots before beginning construction.

Action Steps
The best contacts and resources to help you get it done


Examine how hotel and resort developers are moving toward more year-round facilities

At one point in time, hotel resort developers were geared more toward seasonal facilities. Summer resort development companies focused on swimming and outdoor activities that were not suitable for the winter. The winter hotel development company aimed toward skiing. However, the most recent trend is to design a resort or hotel that is attractive all year long rather than only one season.

I recommend: Search resort developer news among a list of publications from the American Resort Development Association. Gain information about changes and how hotel development is going green from The Ground Floor.

Learn how the hotel developer is adding more features to facilities

In the past, hotels were the place for people vacationing to rest while they were not out at the beach or other attractions. Hotel builders now focus on keeping customers inside the building. They design buildings with exercise rooms, restaurants, game rooms, and the new popular spa room. These features add enjoyment and relaxation to the stay of the guests.

I recommend: Learn about hotel and resort development predictions for the future from Hotel Executive. Condo Hotel Center offers an article for hotel and resort builders about the benefits of adding a spa to the facility.

See how resort developers keep their guests active while remaining within the facility grounds

In addition to special features added inside the buildings, resort developers are creating an interactive environment for their guests. Many resorts now include water parks or theme parks with their lodging. The key is to keep the guest busy and satisfied without leaving the resort. Some developers gear toward family activities while others gear toward activities for couples or singles.

I recommend: Check out information about selecting a hotel brand for developing from 4 Hoteliers. View information from the Hostmark hotel developers.

Guide to Hotel and Resort Developers

Choose a hotel developer that can help your hotel business grow

By Margaret Ross


Hotel and resort developers offer a variety of services for the small hotel owner including feasibility studies, design, construction and management services. A hotel development company can not only help you get your hotel business going, but they can also manage the day-to-day affairs of your hotel or resort, ensuring the smooth flow of your business.

Because hotel developers play a crucial role in the success of your business, you'll want to choose the right one. When looking for a hotel development company, consider the following points.

1. Ask to see a portfolio of their clients, especially if you will be building. Make sure they have experience designing and building similar projects.

2. Many hotel developers will offer you financing. If the rate is right, it is not a bad idea to get financing through the developer, since this will increase the company's interest in the success of your enterprise.

3. Decide whether you will want your developer to also act as the management company for your hotel. If so, don't wait to the get the facts about the management services and style of the company. If possible, talk to some of the company's current clients to see if the management company's services are satisfactory and financially successful.


Action Steps
The best contacts and resources to help you get it done


Decide what services you want from a hotel developer

Hotel developers can provide a variety of services, from initial feasibility studies to day-to-day management services like maintaining vendor contracts and hiring employees. If you consider yourself just an investor, you'll want a development company that can do it all. If you want to manage the business yourself, you still may want to keep a management company on hand to handle certain aspects of the business.

I recommend: If you need hotel builders, but not a management company, Construction Deal offers a free search service for finding hotel construction companies. If you require additional management services, read this article from Hotel & Motel Management, to choose a management company that's compatible.

Choose hotel developers that will keep your profits up

Resort development can be a big venture in terms of capital. Make sure your resort developer can conduct accurate feasibility studies and create a management strategy that will maintain the value of your hotel and keep it profitable.

I recommend: Cornell University School of Hotel Administration offers hospitality valuation software that lets you predict revenues and expenses and keep track of the value of your enterprise. Ledo International is a leading provider of feasibility studies and business plans for the hospitality industry. The National Association of Condo Hotel Owners also offers feasibility analysis.

Make sure your hotel developer knows how to market your business

Hotel and resort developers, when acting as management companies, are also responsible for the marketing of your business. Hotel development companies should be up on the latest tactics to increase your visibility and bring in new clientele.

I recommend: Look for management companies that advertise in publications such as Hotel Marketing or Hotels, and ask to see samples of their work and evidence of their marketing plans' effectiveness. Ask if they make use of online marketing tools such as Dunhill Vacation News.

Tips & Tactics

Helpful advice for making the most of this Guide

  • •  Be sure to get a construction timeline in writing as part of your contract, and make sure that hotel builders stick to the timeline.

Guide to Hotel and Resort Developers News and Trends

Keep the finger of your hotel development company on the industry's pulse

By Meredith Fagioli


The world of hotel and resort developers is often competitive and fast paced. With new hotels and resorts being built almost monthly, it's important to stay on top of not only what is new and exciting, but also what the competition is building. The best place to start is by keeping up with hotel and resort developers news and trends.

Being able to gauge the marketplace can help you keep your company nimble and also help your budget. If you know what trends are hot and what ones have cooled off, you can take a look at your budget and adjust it accordingly so you aren't wasting money on amenities that have little value in the eyes of your customers.

1. Stay current when it comes to news on the competition

2. Subscribe to hotel and resort publications for an industry wide overview

3. Include your staff in the quest for hotel builder news

Action Steps
The best contacts and resources to help you get it done


Keep the hotel and resort developer competition in sight

In order to keep your company marketable, you should keep an eye on what your competition is doing. There are many websites out there devoted to news about resort builders and hotel development companies. If you see common similarities being reported on, you can bet that whatever it is, it's going to be an important trend to follow.

I recommend: Visit the website of Hotel News Resource to read up on articles pertaining to what has been happening in the hotel and resort development industry. Hotel Interactive provides daily breaking news stories on hotel developers worldwide.

Keep up-to-date with industry publications

To keep up with hotel and resort development news and trends, your company should have subscriptions to industry publications. If your budget is small, look for free e-mail newsletters that you can take advantage of to keep informed of the latest trends.

I recommend: Property Wire offers various levels of subscriptions for their newsletter that focuses primarily on international hotel and resort development. Hotels has a free subscription to their monthly magazine that highlights the latest trends in hotel design, technology and marketing.

Keep your employees in the hotel developer knowledge loop

If you have staff to spare, consider putting some of them on the job to stay current with news and trends. Have them search out some online newsletters or locate a conference or two for hotel builders that would not only get your company name out there, but increase the amount of trend information your company will have access to.

I recommend: Hospitality Net reports on upcoming industry conferences and has the latest hotel and resort developer news. BuildCentral has a free search that lets you search hotel development projects by state or by type.

Tips & Tactics
