Cap Maison, Saint Lucia’s favourite boutique hotel, has revealed its stunning new look strengthening its position as one of the island’s premier boutique resorts. The re-design has been a collaboration with highly acclaimed, family-owned interior designers Studio IDC, who specialise in luxury hotels and residential homes in the Caribbean.
Guests at Cap Maison are treated to dramatic cliff scenery with the tranquil waters of the Caribbean Sea on one side and the brisk Atlantic Ocean to the other. Designed in an elegant Spanish Caribbean style, Cap Maison’s 50 beautifully appointed suites are spread over three acres of tropical landscaped grounds. Guests have access to a secluded sandy beach and enjoy a truly bespoke service throughout their stay.
The interior design team at Studio IDC have reimagined all 50 rooms and suites at the hotel and spa, to transform it into one of the most stylish and sophisticated boutique resorts on the island. Speaking about the inspiration behind the interior design, Stephanie Tyler, President, ASID, NC1DQ said: “Upon first stepping into the Cap Maison reception, guests are immediately allured by the grandeur of a Mexican-inspired hacienda and the intimate village-like arrangement of the property.
“As the interior design team for the original design and construction in 2008, we were delighted to have been invited to reimagine and modernise the public space and guest suite aesthetics by ushering in a lighter, softer, fresh air feel. By embracing the romantic essence of St. Lucia, this design introduces soft draperies, touches of jewel tones, elevated rattan furniture, pale pink venetian plaster and much more. The guests will find a refreshed and comfortable elegance in the pristine surroundings that is Cap Maison.”
Ross Stevenson, General Manager at Cap Maison commented: “We are delighted to have collaborated with Studio IDC once again on the hotel’s recent refurbishment. The brief was to create a feel of glamourous Caribbean hacienda with modern edges, and Studio IDC’s designs for this project have realised that brief perfectly and given the hotel a chic and contemporary new look, whilst at the same time maintaining Cap Maison’s elegant and sophisticated charm.
