There’s a certain part of winter in the Northern US that calls for a change of scenery. The holidays are over and the nipping temperatures hold less allure. Longing for warmer temperatures, it’s common to book tropical getaways and spend some time in sunnier destinations. Many people even plan to spend entire winters in a warmer state. These trips hold a special hearth of vivid memories that include activities like snorkeling, jet skiing, hiking, spa days, and meals of freshly caught seafood on the sand. The hotel destinations in beach settings typically have lots of open air, lighter color schemes, and expansive aquatic amenities. Hotel lobbies carry a memorable scent that imparts a wholeness in the mind, evoking a sense of getaway, adventure, or relaxation. Hotel scents in beach destinations can range from light, subtle and aquatic, to tropical floral or even warm woods. Inclusive of a variety of branding styles, hotel signature scents are designed to make an impact and contribute to the special memory of a beach vacation in the winter.
Air Aroma works with thousands of hotels globally to design signature scents that stand out and define their point of view. From San Diego to Cancun, hotel scents in beach destinations create lasting connections and elevate the design of each unique property. Read below for a selection of luxurious beach destination hotels that have a signature scent with Air Aroma.
