Banyan Tree Veya
Banyan Tree Veya, a luxury wellness hospitality brand designed to offer transformative experiences, combines mindfulness, self-discovery, and personalized wellbeing journeys. To strengthen its presence in the luxury wellness market, Banyan Tree Veya entrusted POLLY to enhance its brand positioning and creative expression through a strategic development process focused on storytelling, guest experience, and creative assets.
Our Approach
POLLY focused on five essential pillars to amplify the brand’s expression:
-
We optimized the key messages of the Veya Brand Platform, including its origin, essence, tagline, vision, mission, brand pillars, expression, and target audience. This ensured consistency across all touchpoints while emphasizing the unique ethos of Veya as a leader in wellness hospitality.
-
To bring Veya’s unique offerings to life, we defined narratives for each of the brand’s singular wellness experiences. These stories highlighted Veya’s expertise while immersing potential guests in a sensory, compelling preview of their journey—even before it begins.
-
We crafted social media guidelines to define the brand’s tone and artistic direction across platforms. Alongside these guidelines, we developed a first set of concrete examples and a clear framework of do’s and don’ts to maintain a cohesive and impactful online presence.
-
Tasked with fostering meaningful connections between guests, we designed a set of 50 beautifully crafted cards. Each card features thought-provoking questions centered on wellbeing, self-awareness, and building deeper relationships with oneself and others, creating an enriching and memorable guest interaction.
-
As part of the retreat program, we conceptualized, designed, and structured a retreat journal. This journal includes inspiring quotes, prompting questions, and short mindfulness exercises, providing guests with a tangible guide to deepen their wellness journey during and beyond their stay.
