As the world opens back up again (knock on wood), people are eager to explore—to get away from their screens and have real experiences. And as you might imagine, we’re here for it: Our 500-acre playground is perfect for many of the trends that are shaping travel in 2022.
Over-the-top travel
Travelers who have been waiting for the better part of two years to get back out there are READY for fun and adventure. They might also have unused vacation funds burning a hole in their pockets! That means they’re ready to splurge on special trips, exciting activities, one-in-a-lifetime meals, and more. At The Ranch, that might mean workshops with our artisans or even just springing for a bigger suite. (Note that we didn’t say “springing for a suite”—because here, every room is a suite.) The New York Times did a story on this trend that mentions The Ranch!
Responsibility
Although they’re seeking fun and excitement, people also are being more mindful about the impact of their travel—they are seeking destinations that focus on sustainable practices and feature natural experiences. Because so much of what makes The Ranch special is rooted in the land, we’re mindful of our impact as well: We maintain an Organic Garden, utilize ingredients grown right here for our cuisine and even spa treatments, help to preserve bee populations, and more.
Privacy
Space has become a new kind of luxury, and although people are traveling again, they still seek seclusion. Our 500 acres are filled with possibility, but you won’t find them filled with people—here, you have plenty of room to roam without feeling crowded.
Work from _______
Why work from home when you can work from here? The beauty of remote work is that you can be anywhere—including a resort! The Ranch gives you the time and space to be productive, while the family can play the days away. (Don’t forget to give yourself a little time for fun, too.) It’s the home office you’ll never want to leave.
More trends
These aren’t the only travel trends for 2022. So stay tuned, because we’ll be talking about other trends soon, including “learning vacations” and wellness-focused escapes! (Both of which you can find at The Ranch, of course.)
