Securities Market Line

Although luxury resorts are very expensive, the rejuvenating experience, that the resorts have to offer, makes it worthwhile. People love to pamper themselves, once in a while, and do not mind spending a few extra bucks for a great vacation. However, people want value for their money. A good luxury resort is one that can attract tourists using the power of persuasive advertising. Advertising should not be misleading, at the same time it should be able to enchant viewers while conveying the benefits of visiting the resort. Today, luxury resorts are no longer meant for a select few since they offer varying levels of luxury to suit the needs of both affluent and cost conscious consumers. People who save carefully, just so that they can enjoy a once in a lifetime stay at a luxurious resort, should also be made to feel welcome. Hence, persuasive advertising should be subtle and in good taste, ensuring that the resort is marketed to consumers desiring exclusivity, without seeming snobbish and warding off other prospective clients seeking to revel in the comforts of the luxury resort. After all, varying levels of luxury ensure that service is rendered to people according to their ability to pay.

Advertising Different Types of Luxury Resorts

A resort should be advertised depending on the amenities that it has to offer. For instance, the advertisement for a health and wellness spa will be very different from that of a skiing resort. A ski vacation is meant for people who love the outdoors; people desiring an adrenalin kick, so to say. An incomparable skiing experience, the beauty of nature, the availability of skiing instructors and great outdoors should be the focal point of ski resort advertising. On the other hand, an advertisement for a spa should exude an aura of tranquility and peace. The concept of a spa, as a health destination, a resort where self renewal is promoted with therapeutic massages, facials and body wraps should be stressed on. Health and wellness spas can also be promoted as destination spas, offering a wide range of fitness programs, encompassing a nutritious diet and a self awareness program. In other words, health and fitness spa advertisements should be targeted towards people desiring good health while ski resort advertising should focus on people celebrating good health. Hence, the difference in the approach to advertising.

To elaborate further, on the concept of luxury resort advertising, the following points should be observed while advertising secluded tropical islands and beach resorts. People visiting a secluded tropical island may be looking for a private guest house, a paradise to call their own. The peace and tranquility of nature, the secluded sandy beaches, narrow coastlines, limestone plateaus and coastal plains, so typical of tropical islands, are ideal for people on a quest for solitude. An occasional desire for activity is quenched by scuba diving, kayaking, snorkeling and possibly hiking. Advertising should clearly illustrate, the privacy and the beauty of the tropical island. Again, beach resorts are meant for people who want to enjoy the treasures that nature has to offer along with the fine tropical cuisine, the spa, the swimming pool, jacuzzi and other facilities. A perfect blend of natural sensory delights and man- made comforts is desired by people visiting a beach resort. The beauty of nature, relaxation, enjoyment and a vast array of culinary delights coupled with the desired human interaction should be focused on while advertising a beach resort.
