Global spa consultancy Raison d’Etre has been awarded the distinguished title of Best Wellness Concept and Brand Creator for Scandinavia in the LUX 2019 Hotel and Spa Awards. The Awards by LUX Life Magazine looks to honor candidates who stand out from the competition and work tirelessly to provide their guests with seamless and tranquil wellness experiences.

The award win honors the Stockholm, Sweden-based consultancy’s expertise in creating award winning spas, spa brands, and spa concepts worldwide, including their very own brand LivNordic. Today, Raison d’Etre has worked on over 120 spas in 60 countries, winning more than 50 awards for ground-breaking innovations and revolutionary facilities that champion design, wellness, nutrition, and beauty.

To ensure that only the best and brightest walked away with one of its prestigious accolades, judges conducted a rigorous 12-month investigation into each candidate. Nominees were analyzed within their respective regions of operation and rated on employee skills, services on offer, customer feedback, and their wider market reputation. Judges also reviewed supporting evidence (submitted by the nominees) before making the ultimate decision.

Receiving the award, Raison d’Etre’s managing director, Anna-Cari Gund, says, “Our mission is to create truly unique spaces. We are extremely proud to have risen to the challenge of creating this and to see such a positive response from guests.”
