Make your golf club washrooms a hole-in-one this year
Your golf club facilities should be inviting and welcoming for all guests. From well-maintained lawns to luxurious clubhouses, cosy bars and everything in between, you want your guests to have an experience, not just a game.
A big part of this is ensuring that they have access to clean, stylish and modern facilities, including lockers, changing rooms and bathrooms. But if your washrooms aren’t quite keeping pace with the rest of your club, it’s time to fix that.
By making some simple changes, you can improve your facilities, significantly enhancing the overall experience for all members and guests. With that in mind, here’s how to make your golf club washrooms a hole-in-one this year.
Prioritise hygiene and cleanliness
The best way to ensure clean washrooms is to choose durable and easy-to-clean materials, like our solid-grade laminate, which can be used for toilet cubicles and other surfaces. This means they require less intervention and cleaning to keep them looking fresh and new.
On top of this, you should introduce hands-free fixtures that reduce the number of touchpoints around your changing rooms and bathrooms.
For example, automatic lighting and hand dryers, or touch-free taps, soap dispensers and toilet flushes. Reducing contact points will instantly improve hygiene in these spaces, as can ensuring proper ventilation through fans, windows and air fresheners.
Then, of course, you need to get a strict and frequent cleaning schedule in place to ensure your golf club bathrooms are spotless at all times.
Freshen up your design to reflect your brand
Choosing premium materials and finishes will create a sleek and luxurious feel in your washrooms. Neutral colours can offer a more elegant palette, though a pop of colour can help to build your brand and make your bathrooms feel more stylish.
Another way to add colour and style to your golf club washrooms is by introducing decorative touches like artwork, golf-themed decor and plants.
While the overall design and layout of your bathrooms matter most, it is these smaller finishing touches that can reflect your club and improve your guest’s experience.
Offer extra comfort and privacy
It’s important that you provide ample space in your toilet cubicles for user comfort, including accessible options for guests with mobility challenges. You could also provide baby-changing stations and family restrooms for guests with children.
Not only this, but choosing floor-to-ceiling toilet cubicles can reduce noise and increase the privacy and comfort of your guests. You could even go as far as to include a small lounge area in your washrooms, with comfortable seating and mirrors for touch-ups. If you have the space, that is.
Make your golf club washrooms more sustainable
There are lots of ways you can make your bathrooms more sustainable, including having energy efficiency built into the design. From energy-efficient lighting to water-saving fixtures, these features help you reach sustainability goals and save your club money in the long run.
You might also wish to incorporate eco-friendly or recycled materials into the design and consider using recyclable paper products where necessary, such as recyclable paper towels. That said, you could simply replace paper towels with fresh, reusable hand towels for an upscale touch that is better for the planet.
Add those special finishing touches
Even the smallest special touches can make all the difference to your guests. For example, warm, ambient lighting creates a more relaxing atmosphere, you could achieve this by incorporating lights over your mirrors.
Similarly, refresh stations that include extras like mints, mouthwash and toiletries always go down well.
Finally, you could incorporate discreet charging stations for phones and other devices, as long as these are far enough away from water sources, of course. This can be discussed early on and built into the design of your golf club washrooms.
By focusing on cleanliness, luxury and thoughtful details like this, you can instantly elevate your golf club washroom experience and leave a lasting impression on your guests.
