Hotel-Online Subscribers Can Register For the World Waterpark Association’s 38th Annual Symposium & Trade Show For Lowest Price Of 2018 AND Receive A Complimentary Registration To The WWA University: Waterpark Design, Development & Expansion Workshop!

Overland Park, September 10, 2018 – Did you know that adding a waterpark to an existing hotel or resort or as part of a new project can increase occupancy and ADRs? Listen to what industry expert, David J. Sangree, President of Hotel & Leisure Advisors has to say: “According to research by Hotel & Leisure Advisors, indoor waterpark destination resorts in Wisconsin Dells, Wisconsin outperform the franchise affiliated non-resort hotels in Wisconsin Dells by 13 occupancy points and $105 in ADR in 2016. Compared to the indoor waterpark resorts, the Wisconsin Dells hotels with a small or no indoor waterpark achieve substantially lower occupancy and ADR levels. This trend has occurred in multiple resort markets throughout the United States to varying degrees.”

Of course, any waterpark development project has to be done right, which is why we’re extending this special offer to you as a reader of Hotel-Online.
