Mixed-use developments
mixing it up can make sense.
Tourism is among the highest-risk businesses on earth. Seasons change. Unforeseen circumstances impact countries, regions, weather.
So how do the best handle it? Mixing up use patterns is a start when developing the master plan. Nothing will break a pro forma more quickly than assuming a market will respond the same way they did in a past development. Before the first shovel hits, before first heads hit beds, build detailed strategy into the bones of the plan.

Those "if you build it, they will come" days are long gone. To build successfully requires strategic thinking, exquisite development, and clear focus. "Competition" isn't what it once meant; today competition is where people spend their time and money when they aren't with you. Away from home, yes. On an overnight flight? Yep. Camping? Glamping?
So why will they come to you?
How will they make that commitment?
Will they come back?
Does the off-site experience elevate your brand?
Basic questions, certainly. Essentials in building successful marketplaces? Absolutely.

Shopping has become a global redundancy. It is no longer about location alone. Retail is changing dramatically and developers of brick-and-mortar shopping must think far beyond concrete and fountains, planters and skylights if they are to master the ability to deliver investment returns. Being a good contractor is not the core competency for breakthrough development today.
Consider this: When will a visionary developer think bigger than the best of the best retailers? It's time. Stop a moment and think about it. The world of consumers are yearning for something else. Something exciting. Something better. Different. Unexpected. So, what are you waiting for?
