Guests move hot, cold, rest and repeat. If the plunge is across a corridor the circuit breaks and the room gets used once. We lay out the sequence and fit the architecture to it.
Two plunge positions per eight sauna seats keeps the flow moving at the evening peak, which on a beach resort is the ninety minutes after the sun goes.
A resort suite in high season cannot close because one generator scaled. Duplicated plant on critical items, isolation valves on each room, and a spares kit on site with part numbers.
Island logistics make that last point more important here than on the mainland: a part that takes days in Dar can take weeks to reach a beach resort.
Two days of training at handover on operation, cleaning chemistry, water testing and the log, then a return visit at six months to check the log is being kept. Resort maintenance teams turn over, and a suite run by somebody who was never shown how is broken by year two.
From about 40–60 m² for sauna, steam, plunge positions and rest, plus 10–14 m² of plant for a duplicated installation.
Phased by room behind screens, yes. The shoulder months are faster and cheaper if your calendar allows.
On site, with part numbers. It is the single most useful thing we leave behind.
