Ikogosi Warm Springs Resort  Emerges Nigeria’s Best as Glocient Hospitality Takes Top Travel Honour.

Ikogosi warm springs resort in Ekiti State has emerged Best Resort in Nigeria, while its management company, Glocient Hospitality, has been named a Top Travel Company in Nigeria at the Top 100 Travel Icons in Nigeria Awards.

The twin recognition places Ekiti’s iconic tourism destination in the national spotlight and highlights the growing potential of the state’s tourism assets to attract visitors, conferences, wellness seekers and leisure travellers from across Nigeria and beyond.

Ikogosi Warm Springs Resort, famous for the rare natural phenomenon where warm and cold springs meet, has in recent years expanded its offerings beyond its natural attraction under the management of Glocient Hospitality, the hospitality arm of Cavista Holdings.

The resort now combines the natural attraction with accommodation, wellness experiences, corporate retreats, conferences, events and outdoor leisure, broadening its appeal as a destination for both tourism and business activities.

The latest awards, according to Glocient Hospitality, recognise efforts to develop and manage destinations with strong natural and tourism potential while improving their capacity to compete in Nigeria’s increasingly competitive hospitality market.

Hospitality Manager at Glocient Hospitality, Francis Ogosi, FIH, said the recognition was a reflection of the commitment and hard work of the company’s team.

He said the awards demonstrated that Nigeria’s tourism assets could be transformed into internationally competitive destinations through effective management, investment and quality service.

 “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,” Ogosi said.

"The honours would serve not only as a milestone but also as a motivation to further raise hospitality standards, stimulate domestic tourism and position Nigerian destinations more competitively within Africa and the global tourism market.
