After nearly three months of being closed, Sparkling Hill resort will re-open to guests.
"After much planning and consultation with industry experts, we are elated to announce that Sparkling Hill will welcome guests again on Monday, June 15," CEO Hans-Peter Mayr said in an announcement posted to the resort's website.
"It is essential that this reopening happens in a way that protects (the) health and safety of our guests and our team members. During these past weeks, our management team has been working diligently to develop a plan for safety and sanitization throughout the resort."
Key features of this plan include automatic temperature checks upon entry to the building for guests and team members alike, stringent sanitization protocols, allowing for proper social distancing in all common areas, and temporarily implementing an a la carte menu for breakfast in PeakFine Restaurant to replace the buffet.
The resort's three pools, Kneipp Waterway, Tea and Serenity relaxation rooms, spa services, and restaurants will be available, however steams and saunas will initially remain closed until they can ensure public health precautions can be practiced in this area and we are confident it is safe to reopen.
A full copy of their response plan will be available on the company's website in the coming days.
"These past few months have been incredibly stressful and trying for many of us," he said. "We are so happy to be able to resume offering an experience that is focused on rest, relaxation, and most importantly you and your well-being. This is something that is needed now more than ever before."
Sparkling Hill closed its doors March 21 due to concerns surrounding COVID-19.
