Nestled in the embrace of Raa Atoll’s cerulean waves, Brennia Kottefaru was envisioned as a sanctuary for the sovereign spirits—a place where each guest is royalty. The challenge? To sculpt a brand identity that would echo the regality and splendor of this untouched paradise.
The client wanted a positioning and brand strategy that would set their new resort apart and stand out amongst the noise of the other 90+ resorts. We came up with a winning strategy that not only sets them apart but also creates a brand story that enables the client to market the resort effectively.
In a world where the ordinary is ubiquitous, there exists an oasis so pristine that it seems otherworldly. Brennia Kottefaru is that jewel in the Maldives, a super resort conceived not just to stand apart from the profusion of overwater bungalows but to redefine the very essence of island luxury.
This case study chronicles Spellbrand’s journey in forging a brand as enchanting as the isle itself.
