Lopez, Patrick Jules M. Arch - 4B Proposed Health and Wellness Spa Resort Complex Background of The Study

The document proposes a health and wellness spa resort complex located outside of Metro Manila in the province of Bulacan. The resort would incorporate spa treatments and connect them with nature through vernacular architecture to create an environment conducive to relaxation, stress relief, and maintaining physical wellness. It would provide facilities like a restaurant and convention halls to accommodate nature retreats for local and international travelers while reconnecting them with the tranquility of nature. Locating the resort complex near the proposed new international airport in Bulacan would give it an advantage by being accessible to visitors wanting to explore the area, while also increasing tourism demand and improving the image of therapeutic accommodation in the Philippines.

Proposed Health and Wellness Spa Resort Complex

Introduction:

Background of the Study:


The growth of the economy followed by the urbanization within Metro Manila is undeniable and
cannot be stopped. The increase in tourism of the Philippines has become a great opportunity for the
economy to prosper. With hotels being the first option for tourists to stay, these hotels also serve as their
first impression in the Philippines in terms of hospitality in service and in entertainment. A hotel such as
the one with a resort has turned out to be one of the most basic tourist attractions here in the Philippines
due to the archipelagic setting of the country; it effectively highlights the beauty of the natural
surroundings depending on its location.

With the increase of resort and hotel establishments providing leisure, it has become underrated
for it to focus on the health and wellness of the users without sacrificing any of their demands.
Accommodating such a feature, especially a therapeutic one, it will be something fresh and will give a
new variety in hotel selections for tourists. In this sense, therapeutic means to relax in a way most
beneficial to our health and for that to happen, there should be an effective synergy between the hotel,
the resort, the amenities and of course, the natural surroundings in order to create an environment
conducive to not just relieving stress but also keeping your body in perfect rhythm. In order to create a
distinct hotel and resort that will captivate the user’s attention and cater to their health needs, vernacular
architecture will be used to emphasize the eco-friendly aspect of the construction and also to inflict less
damage to the environment by utilizing and recycling natural materials. That being said, this will create an
approach that will give off the true Filipino vibe.

Incorporating therapeutics to a resort gives it a whole new function and set of facilities that will
offer a different kind of relaxation and physical wellness to the users. Spa treatments have a wide range
of approaches ranging from physical massage therapy to water spa therapy. The connection of spa
therapy and nature will be both enhanced through architectural application that will make the ambiance of
the resort conducive to relaxation and peace. The resort will provide different facilities such as restaurant
and convention halls to accommodate nature retreats of both local and international travelers reconciling
them with the tranquility brought about the nature.

The hotels and resort’s site will be located outside of Metro Manila to reduce the
congestion in the area and to establish a new place of attraction that will benefit the province will be in.
Bulacan will be a good choice since there is a new proposal for the new airport for the first time and it will
be well-developed international airport and it is also rich in raw, natural, and beautiful sights. Give the
proximity of an airport, it will be a great added advantage to the hotel and resort as both these structures
embody the function of taking care of the people wanting to visit and explore the place. Having a
therapeutic resort in the province will increase the demand for tourism in that area and equipped with the
unique feature and different approach in terms of relaxation, the hotel and resort sort of kind of improving
both the general view of therapeutic accommodation and the philosophy of hospitality of the Filipino
culture offers.
