Business Model

Oakwell Beer Spa is redefining wellness as a social day spa concept that pairs private spa suites with a craft beer and wine taproom. Unlike traditional spas, Oakwell attracts a balanced mix of male and female guests, many of whom are first-time spa-goers. By curating an upbeat and unpretentious environment, an Oakwell spa day feels more like a social outing than a meditative retreat. Designed for two, the experience has become a go-to for date nights, helping thousands of couples trade routine dinners and movie nights for a more intentional way to relax and reconnect.

While building Oakwell, our founders engaged extensively with operators across the personal services and hospitality industries to understand their biggest challenges. A consistent theme emerged: labor constraints, volatile costs, unpredictable demand, and reliance on a single revenue stream. Oakwell’s model was intentionally designed to address each of these pressures through streamlined operations and diversified revenue.

Our Story

The Creation of Oakwell Beer Spa

Jessica and Damien Zouaoui met while working in New York City, where they were each building successful corporate careers while sharing a long-term goal: to create and scale a national business of their own.

Rather than waiting for the right idea to surface, they made a decisive move. The month after getting married, they quit their jobs, sold their belongings, packed two backpacks, and set out on an open-ended journey around the world with a clear objective to find a concept they could bring back to the United States and grow through franchising.

Searching for the Right Concept

Over 14 months and 25+ countries, they explored wellness and hospitality experiences. From wine spas in Spain to jjimjilbangs in South Korea and onsens in Japan, they immersed themselves in different cultural approaches to relaxation, hospitality, and social connection.

Along the way, they began to recognize a consistent pattern. Across much of the world, wellness is inherently social, with spa experiences designed to be multi-hour, communal, and centered around connection. Integrated food and beverage offerings encourage guests to linger, recharge, and spend time together.

In contrast, the U.S. spa industry felt fundamentally different. Experiences were often transactional, less conducive to socializing, and geared toward a narrower demographic. Many environments also felt clinical or overly formal, leaving a clear gap in the market.

They saw an opportunity to create something more accessible, more social, and better aligned with a new generation that values shared experiences.

Bringing Oakwell to Life

Jessica and Damien met with dozens of operators across the hospitality and personal service industries to better understand real-world operational challenges.

Common themes quickly emerged: staffing constraints, food cost volatility, unpredictable demand, and reliance on a single revenue stream.

These insights directly informed the design of the Oakwell model, a concept that blends hospitality and wellness while prioritizing operational simplicity, predictable demand, and a 5-star guest experience.

Their first location opened in Downtown Denver in 2021 and quickly gained traction, operating at or near full capacity for its first three years. A second location followed in Highlands Ranch, Colorado in 2024 and saw strong early demand. Together, these locations have helped refine the concept and lay a strong foundation for national expansion.
