Luxurious Magazine: "Karol Krauser Hasegawa brings over 35 years of experience in wellness and holistic healing. He has traveled globally to study traditional healing practices: yoga, meditation, martial arts, and sports medicine."
When luxury resorts seek to differentiate their wellness offerings, they turn to practitioners with genuine expertise, not trendy fitness influencers, but seasoned professionals with decades of real-world experience across multiple disciplines. Karol brings 35+ years of mastery spanning sports medicine, traditional healing arts, and mind-body practices to create truly transformative guest experiences.
What Is Seven-Star Service?
While official hotel ratings cap at five stars, the concept of "seven-star service" emerged from ultra-luxury properties like the Burj Al Arab and the world's finest superyachts. It represents a philosophy that transcends standard hospitality.
- Anticipatory care: knowing what guests need before they ask
- Absolute discretion: privacy and confidentiality as non-negotiable
- Complete personalization: every detail tailored to individual preferences
- Invisible excellence: seamless service that never feels intrusive
- No request impossible: flexibility to accommodate any reasonable need
- Genuine expertise: staff who are masters of their craft, not just trained employees
Having served ultra-high-net-worth clients on private yachts and at world-class resort properties, Karol understands that discerning guests expect more than technical competence. They expect an experience calibrated to their individual needs, delivered with discretion and genuine care.
