#BnS227 - Oceanside Resort
The deadline for this challenge is 30 June 2020
“Your appointment with Mr. Pascua is here,” Rose says over the intercom.
“Thank you, Rose. Please send him in.”
You rise to greet the man as he enters, impressed with his build. You aren’t sure what you had in mind but he seems to be almost a bodybuilder!
“Thank you for agreeing to see me on such short notice,” he says as you motion towards the chair.
“Not at all, I’m happy to fit you in,” you reply with a smile. “Now, your assistant said something about a resort?”
“An ocean-side resort and hotel,” he confirms.
“That’s quite a project,” you say, but love the idea. This town could use something special to draw more tourists.
“Economy is up, people want to travel. But they need a place to stay when they do.”
“Makes sense. What scale are you thinking?”
“Well, it depends. I’d like something with some flexibility, some standard rooms but also some nicer suites. A pool would be a nice touch, but maybe an ocean swim is good enough? Some outdoor activities, of course. Perhaps a lounge or restaurant for the local community to enjoy as well, especially in the off season to keep the place open.”
He speaks very rapidly but you scribble all that down.
“I also want it to really stand out! I want people to see it and think, ‘yeah, that’s where I want to go.’ So nothing too small or too blended in, but don’t let it clash, either. It should fit the town but still draw your attention.”
You nod. “I understand completely. How many guests will you want to accommodate?”
“I’d like at least 8 rooms. Three with one double bed, three with two double beds, and two luxury suites. If you can fit more in for the budget, then please do, but I don’t want to feel that the resort suffered just for more people. There must be a reason for them to come, after all. “
“Of course. Now, about the budget…”
THE BRIEF
