To celebrate this day of love, check out @findyourhappyplate 's top 10 Maldivian honeymoon resorts for @travelandleisureasia , and our project @thenautilusisland . Time stands still on the private island resort, and following this Haute Bohème theme, there are no fixed dining schedules or predetermined menus. As @findyourhappyplate writes, "it’s a 'your wish is my command' sort of place." Read more about the resort and see the full list at the link in our bio. #resortdesign #privateisland

What's new in wellness travel trends? Let's explore some ideas from @accor ’s Global Senior Vice President of Well-Being, Emlyn Brown. Hotel guests will be looking for more than traditional spa treatments in the future. They will come equipped with their own health data on personal tech devices and aim to emulate the regimens and recovery experiences of professional athletes. Could we soon witness the emergence of supercharged training, rest, and recovery treatments? And speaking of tech, could we anticipate the rise of new wellness devices such as infrared saunas, IV therapy, microneedling, lasers, and oxygen jets in the near future? Advances in medi-tech represent exciting opportunities toward more effective and personalized wellness results.

We are inspired by some great ideas that hotels in the Middle East are deploying to make their properties more sustainable! Some highlights include properties employing atmospheric water generators to produce potable water from the region's hot air. Others are exploring on-site bottling plants. At @ritzcarltondubai , the team is growing crops in their vertical hydroponic farm, yielding an impressive 10kg of fresh produce every day! Additionally, @jumeirahzs is using an AI tracking system to monitor food waste, with more smart tech implementations to come.

Throwback to our Machan listed in @archdigestindia as one of the country's most beautiful coffee shops. Journalist Pallavi Mehra shares she "[loves] that ​​most of the materials used at Machan have been sourced locally and created by artists from neighbouring states." We love this too!

In a recent study and survey by @accor , the MICE industry is geared for robust growth in 2024. With a resurgence of both small to large scale meetings and trade shows, we can expect more people traveling for these in-person meetings and events. Industry professionals are also moving beyond the usual ROI metrics and are embracing a new one: ROX or return on experience. At Aston Design, we love seeing how we can play with and elevate design for hotel meeting and event facilities. From @tajmahalhotelnewdelhi 's meeting rooms for their private members' club, Coli Fuzhou's sparkling ballroom, to India's most popular wedding venue at the @umaidbhawanpalace , we love the endless possibilities that these spaces offer.
