Ikogosi Resort Named Nigeria’s Best Resort.

The Ikogosi Warm Springs Resort in Ekiti State has been recognised as the Best Resort in Nigeria at the Top 100 Travel Icons in Nigeria Awards.

The resort’s management company, Glocient Hospitality, also received recognition as one of the Top Travel Companies in Nigeria at the awards organised to celebrate outstanding contributions to the country’s tourism and hospitality industry.

The twin honours have further drawn attention to Ikogosi, one of Ekiti State’s major tourism destinations, and its growing potential to attract tourists, business travellers, wellness seekers and visitors from different parts of the country and beyond.

Located in Ikogosi-Ekiti, the resort is renowned for its unique natural attraction where warm and cold springs meet at a confluence.

Under the management of Glocient Hospitality, the hospitality arm of Cavista Holdings, the resort has expanded its facilities and services beyond the natural springs.

Its offerings now include accommodation, wellness activities, conferences, corporate retreats, social events and outdoor leisure, making it suitable for both tourism and business purposes.

According to Glocient Hospitality, the awards recognise organisations that have contributed to the development and effective management of tourism destinations with strong natural and commercial potential.

The company’s Hospitality Manager, Francis Ogosi, FIH, said the recognition was a result of the dedication and commitment of the team to improving the resort and raising service standards.

Ogosi said the awards also showed that Nigeria’s tourism destinations could compete favourably in the global market when properly managed and supported with investment and quality service.

He said, “These recognitions show that with the right management, investment and service, Nigeria’s tourism assets can become destinations that attract visitors from home and abroad.”

He added that the recognition would motivate the company to continue improving hospitality standards, promoting domestic tourism and positioning Nigerian destinations for greater visibility within Africa and the global tourism industry.
