The body keeps the score of every space it inhabits. Make yours restorative.
Sana. Live Well. Stay Well.
Healthy Homes. Restorative Stays. Thoughtfully Designed.
Sana helps short-term rental owners, retreat properties, and boutique experiential stays transform how their spaces perform. Through environmental health, wellness design, and 25 years of global luxury hospitality experience, we help you build a property guests remember, recommend, and return to.
For homeowners creating a healthier living environment for your family, Sana's Healthy Home Consulting brings the same principles home.
A New Standard for Living Well
Where wellbeing is built into the environment.
The short-term rental market has never been more competitive. Guests are more discerning, five-star reviews are harder to earn, and the properties pulling ahead are not the ones with the longest amenity lists. They are the ones that made a deliberate choice about how their space makes people feel.
Wellness travelers, the fastest-growing and highest-spending segment in global tourism, now drive measurable performance differences between properties that design for restoration and those that simply furnish for function.
51% of STR operators say reviews are the single most impactful factor in securing new bookings.
137% more spent per domestic trip by wellness travelers versus the average traveler, and 38% more per international trip.
10-25% price premium commanded by wellness-positioned properties at mid and upper market levels.
What Sana is built on.
The word Sana is rooted in the Latin concept of restoration and natural wholeness. It represents a new standard for homes and hospitality, where spaces are intentionally designed to support wellbeing, nervous system balance, and meaningful connection.
Air quality, water, materials, lighting, and sensory experience all influence how supported we feel. These elements are rarely considered together. Sana brings them into awareness and into design.
Through thoughtful choices and strategic improvements, spaces can become not only beautiful, but deeply supportive. Spaces you can feel, even when you can’t immediately explain why.
Sana brings together environmental health, wellness design, and 25 years of global luxury hospitality expertise, across three areas:
Restorative Hospitality
Where Every Stay Restores You.
For STR hosts, Airbnb owners, retreat centers, and boutique experiential properties seeking to build high-performing, wellness-integrated guest experiences aligned with where travel is heading.
Home Consulting
Designed to Support Wellbeing.
For homeowners and renters seeking to improve indoor environmental quality, reduce toxic burden, and create spaces that genuinely support long-term health and daily restoration.
Conscious Lifestyle
Informed Choices for Healthy Living.
Education, research, and curated resources to support healthier daily living, more intentional consumption, and a deeper understanding of how your environment shapes your wellbeing.
Find Out Exactly Where Your Property Is Leaving Revenue on the Table.
The Guest Experience Gap Audit is a free 100-point self-assessment built from 25 years of global luxury hospitality experience. It evaluates the six areas that research consistently identifies as the highest-leverage drivers of guest satisfaction, review quality, and nightly rate.
Most STR owners have never had access to a framework like this. The properties that perform at the highest level in your market have, in one form or another, addressed every area this audit covers. This tool shows you exactly where you stand and where your highest-return opportunities are.
Listing quality, positioning, and pre-arrival experience
Arrival and first impressions
Environmental health and indoor quality
Sensory environment and spatial flow
Sleep environment optimization
Experience design, wellness, and sense of place
Rooted in research.
Designed for real life.
My approach draws from environmental health research, wellness design principles, and the hospitality experience standards used in leading global hotels, spas, and retreat environments worldwide. I focus on practical, high-impact improvements that support wellbeing without unnecessary complexity or overwhelm. Small changes can meaningfully influence how a space feels, and how it performs.
I entered luxury hospitality at 20, trained in holistic and somatic therapies in Hawaii before being hired at Manele Bay Hotel and Spa on Lanai. From there I built an independent holistic healing practice in Germany, joined Rocco Forte Hotels in global luxury spa operations and design, then moved to Phuket with Aman Resorts. My final project abroad was leading development of a landmark LEED Platinum wellness destination resort in India: a $60 million project integrating Ayurvedic medicine, western preventative health, holistic practice, spa, fitness, nutrition, and community. I was outside the United States for 15 years.
When I returned in 2012, I brought that depth into transformational retreat design, mind-body medicine, and hypnotherapy. Then I spent five years inside the biohacking industry at the highest level, including leading the world's first Ketamine-Assisted Neurofeedback program at 40 Years of Zen. My educational training and work both gave me research-grounded understandings of how environments influence the nervous system, sleep, cognition, and recovery.
Sana exists to make that expertise accessible to property owners who are ready to build something exceptional.
Every recommendation is grounded in science and designed for real life.
