Innovative Transformation Leading Leisure and Wellness Smart Resorts in Industrial Parks: A Case Study of Newer Stone Carving Park Resort
Abstract
This case study uses the example of Newer Group's Mindfulness Health Smart Leisure Resort. Within the resort area, 3,000 ping on the southern side has been designated for the development of health-focused vacation homes. A groundbreaking ceremony took place on October 10, 2024, with the completion of the smart health resort expected by the end of 2026. The transformation project within the resort aims to explore how innovative design and the application of smart technology can enhance service quality and meet the leisure, and wellness needs of modern travelers. It reveals the differing demands across generations and proposes solutions for implementing smart technology. The main contributions include addressing retirement and elder care needs, applying smart home technologies, innovating the resort's business model, and suggesting transformation strategies, with the aim of providing reference and guidance for the sustainable development of the resort.
