Introduction

Resort hotel and floating cottage in bogor regency with a biophilic architecture approach. Discover a 3-star Health Resort & Floating Cottage in Bogor, blending stunning nature, local culture, and biophilic architecture for a sustainable escape.

Abstract

Resort Hotel and Floating Cottage, is one of the tourist attractions that many people visit for vacation. The planning of the Resort Hotel and Floating Cottage utilizes the natural beauty in the form of lake and mountain views located in Cigombong District, Bogor Regency and the location is a Kawasan Ekonomi Khusus (KEK) so that the Public-Private-Community Partnership, operational model is applied, namely a partnership between the government, entrepreneurs, and the community. Tourism in Indonesia has an important role in driving national economic growth and improving people's welfare. The natural beauty spread across Indonesia has the potential for tourism development, especially for Resort Hotels and Floating Cottages. In its realization, there are facilities related to local culture so that the community can contribute. This Resort Hotel and Floating Cottage planning is classified as a 3-star Health Resort & Spa type with more complete facilities. In addition, because the planning of this Resort building utilizes the beauty of nature, the Biophilic Architecture approach was chosen which basically has the principle of building a good relationship between humans, nature, and buildings.

Review

The submission presents an intriguing concept for a Resort Hotel and Floating Cottage in Bogor Regency, leveraging the natural beauty of the area and its designation as a Kawasan Ekonomi Khusus (KEK). The proposed integration of a Public-Private-Community Partnership (PPP) model, coupled with a focus on local culture, suggests a well-rounded and potentially sustainable development strategy. The ambition to create a 3-star Health Resort & Spa and the explicit adoption of a Biophilic Architecture approach are commendable, indicating a forward-thinking perspective on hospitality design that prioritizes human-nature connection and guest well-being. While the vision is clear, the abstract reads more like a project proposal or a preliminary design brief rather than an academic research article. It largely describes *what will be planned* or *what the project entails* (e.g., "The planning... utilizes," "operational model is applied," "planning is classified as"). For a journal submission, it is crucial to articulate a clear research question, methodology, and expected academic contribution. The abstract does not specify if this is a theoretical exploration, a case study analysis, an empirical investigation, or a critical review of similar projects. Furthermore, while Biophilic Architecture is mentioned as an approach, the abstract lacks specifics on *how* this will be implemented, its unique challenges in a floating cottage context, or the anticipated benefits that would be specifically studied or analyzed within the paper. To elevate this submission into a strong journal article, the authors should significantly reframe its focus from a descriptive plan to an analytical or research-driven paper. This would involve clearly stating the research problem addressed by this project's planning, outlining the theoretical framework guiding the Biophilic Architecture application, and detailing the methods used to arrive at the design choices or operational models. For instance, it could be framed as a case study analyzing the potential of biophilic design in a KEK tourism context, or a theoretical exploration of integrating PPP models with sustainable resort architecture. Providing a clearer academic contribution, beyond simply presenting a promising development concept, will be essential for acceptance.
