Zenzone Retreat Resort
Feasibility analysis and financing support for a wellness glamping concept
Client: serial entrepreneur
The Challenge
Zenzone approached us with a clear entrepreneurial vision: a premium wellness and lifestyle retreat near Plitvice Lakes, combining luxury glamping with holistic wellness services. They required an independent, rigorous assessment of the investment’s viability and the specific conditions under which the project would be feasible. The core question was not just whether the “numbers added up,” but how the concept positioned itself within the Croatian tourism market, the competitive landscape of eco-wellness, and the real demand of the target segment within the niche and emerging category of wellness glamping.

What We Did
We conducted a concise feasibility study, encompassing market analysis, investment requirements, financial projections, and risk assessment. Based on this, we built a robust financial model that accounts for seasonality and diverse revenue streams. We mapped relevant funding sources (HBOR, HAMAG, EU grants), advised on structuring the project for commercial banks, and supported the procurement of a working-capital loan for the launch phase.
