The power of renovation
Interview with Abbadessa
The summer is coming to an end and one year after the first interview we meta gain Claudio Abbadessa, General Manager of Veraclub Queen Sharm.
He told us how and if the summer 2009 saw a change in the field of tourism as well and, most of all, how one of the biggest firms in the sector responded to the new requirements of tourists.
In such a particular summer like the one which we are leaving to our backs, what did holidays represent?
A holiday, for tour operators like us, is nothing but a careful analysis of the best solutions and locations where our clients can de-stress and get rid of all their thoughts, through a thorough search for high quality at the best price.
How did the approach of tourists change towards the structures and services?
The guests are more and more demanding and accurate in the search for services and interesting occasions.
How did Veratour respond?
By offering interesting and cheap solutions – confirming for 2010 the same prices as in 2009 which, in turn, had been significantly lowered compared to that of 2008 -, by renovating some structure or parts of the resorts – like the rooms of the Veraclub Thalassa in Kos – and by opening new structures – like the Verclub Ranveli at Maldives, which will make its début on 29th December 2009.
What will be the new projects of the Veraclub Queen Sharm in the next months?
The project is to begin a restyling of the rooms in the historical part called beach.
What are the achievements of the summer 2009? And what is expected in the coming months?
Our firm ends the summer with the same turnover of last summer, although 2009 has been a very difficult year for the field of tourism, and, considering the context and the general economic situation, this is already an excellent result.
We are positive about the future since tourism is irrepressible and because we believe that a recovery will take place and it will be ever more evident, also because the interest that our clients show in our structures is always present and strong.
