For Med Spas, Clinics and Beauty Houses

Your client has been coming to you for years, every few weeks, and she has done every wellness weekend her city has to offer. The hard part of your business was never winning her. It is keeping her when something opens two blocks away.

Why a trip holds a client that a loyalty card cannot

A discount says her custom is worth a few percent. Four nights in the Sahara with ten women she already knows from your waiting room says something else entirely, and she will tell that story for years. You would not be buying this. You would be offering it. The camp carries your name for the week, your clients are the only people in it, and every photograph they take has your brand in the frame.

Questions

Asked before the first client trip

Can a med spa or clinic take its own clients on a retreat? +
Yes, and it is one of the things the camp is built for. You invite up to twenty four of your clients, we quote one net figure for the whole camp on your dates, and what you charge them above it is your business. Your name is on the week, we do not contact your clients afterwards, and we do not sell them anything.
How many of our clients can come? +
Eight tents, each with its own bathroom, take from two to eighteen guests, and up to twenty with extra beds. When you take the whole camp, it is yours alone, whichever configuration you choose.
How does the money work for the clinic? +
The camp is priced whole rather than per person: one global rate for the whole camp, set case by case for your dates and party. What you charge your clients above it, and how many you bring, is your own commercial decision.
Can the camp carry our branding? +
Yes. For the week the camp carries your name: signage, textiles and the gathering point in the middle of the dunes. Every photograph your clients take has your brand in the frame, which is the part that fills the following year.
Is it discreet enough for clients who value privacy? +
There is no reception, no bar and no lobby, and with the whole camp taken there are no other guests either. There is no road for anyone else to arrive on. Nobody is seen arriving or leaving. We sign your confidentiality agreement rather than asking you to sign ours, and we publish no client names or photographs.
What do clients actually do for three or four days? +
Dunes at sunrise for whoever is awake, camel riding at sunset, hammam and massage, sandboarding, 4x4 excursions, walking with the nomad families who move through the erg, bread baked in the sand, and guided stargazing with a telescope under a Bortle Class 1 sky. Everything is offered and nothing is compulsory.
Is there phone signal or Wi-Fi? +
No, and for this kind of trip that is usually the treatment rather than the drawback. There is no network at the camp. For an important call, a signal can be found a short walk away, about twenty minutes there and back. The nearest hospital is at Zagora, about two and a half hours by road.
When should we schedule a client retreat? +
October to April. October, November, March and April give the longest comfortable daylight. The good weeks go eight to ten months ahead, so if you want a specific window for your clients the conversation starts the season before. We do not take group bookings in the deep desert in high summer.
