Planning notes for SMARA by Happy Retreats
Rooms, arrivals and the guest experience
SMARA by Happy Retreats lists 30 rooms. For a simple planning exercise, that would mean space for 60 people at two per room if every room were available and double occupancy applied. The actual room block, occupancy and room categories need confirmation.
Build a rooming list alongside flight arrivals and function timings. Keep early check-ins, accessible rooms, children’s arrangements and vendor accommodation visible in the brief so they do not become last-minute additions.
