Enhancing way finding in a beach resort
Abstract
This study examines the intricate of wayfinding within beach resorts it explores the symbiotic relationship between architectural design, spatial organization and user experience. Grounded in the principles of environmental psychology and architectural theories, the research illuminates key factors influencing effective wayfinding, including spatial layout, signage, landmarks, and sensory cues. Drawing from extensive case studies, namely the Mauna Lani Hotel and Golf Resort in Hawaii and Casa de La Flora Resorts in Thailand. The study provides in-depth insights into real-world implementations of optimal wayfinding strategies. The research not only emphasizes the critical role of clear signage and logical spatial planning but also recommends the integration of digital technologies and inclusive design principles for diverse user groups. Furthermore, the study offers valuable recommendations for future research endeavors, advocating for explorations into cultural nuances, sustainable wayfinding practices, and the economic impact of superior wayfinding experiences. This holistic analysis advances the understanding of wayfinding in resort contexts, paving the way for enhanced guest satisfaction and efficient navigation in large recreational spaces.
