Back in 2008, we enjoyed working with the owners on the original design, and we were excited to give the resort a new look while maintaining its essence.  When walking into Cap Maison, you can’t help but be drawn in by the village aspect of the location and architecture. The spaces have a distinct Central American vibe with unexpected moments to experience at every turn. Our goal was to retain the resort’s unique charm while incorporating modern elements. To do that, we focused on using lighter wood tones and furnishings to create a fresh, inviting atmosphere that would enhance the overall guest experience by combining sophistication and comfort. The Cliff at Cap ![Cliff Restaurant 002](https://www.studioidc.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Cliff%20Restaurant%20002.jpg?width=2000&height=1335&name=Cliff%20Restaurant%20002.jpg) [The Cliff at Cap](https://thecliffatcap.com/), known for being one of St. Lucia’s most romantic restaurants, underwent a remarkable transformation. We aimed to enhance the existing structure by capitalizing on the breathtaking views and creating a more inviting atmosphere.  ![Cap Maison Main Bar](https://www.studioidc.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Cap%20Maison%20Main%20Bar.jpg?width=3543&height=2241&name=Cap%20Maison%20Main%20Bar.jpg) Inspired by the trunk of a grand tree holding the restaurant atop the mountain, the newly designed bar area features emerald green tiles, deep green quartz countertops, and natural wood shelving with concealed LED lighting. Rattan furnishings, cobalt blue bar stools, and nautical influences, in addition to expanded verandas and new roof structures, contribute to the casually elegant island ambiance. Lobby ![Reception 076](https://www.studioidc.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Reception%20076.jpg?width=2000&height=1099&name=Reception%20076.jpg) Cap Maison’s newly renovated lobby blends old and new elements. For example, warm terra-cotta Venetian plaster sets a welcoming tone, while custom wood reception desks featuring intricate carvings add sophistication. The lounge area now offers a fusion of traditional and modern styles with furnishings chosen for comfort and elegance. Guest Suites ![Rooms 082-V1](https://www.studioidc.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Rooms%20082-V1.jpg?width=2000&height=1153&name=Rooms%20082-V1.jpg) The guest suites, which range from one to three bedrooms, received a makeover with a light, soft ambiance inspired by contemporary Spanish-Mediterranean style. Artwork in the living areas was created by an Australian artist and executed in three colorways, giving each room a unique, collected feel. It was important to our designers to seamlessly merge the indoor and outdoor living areas, so we moved each suite’s main dining table to the terrace, allowing guests to dine alfresco and opening up the interior spaces for lounging and gathering with family during the day. In the redesigned sleeping spaces, we featured gentle draperies to diffuse the Caribbean sunlight. We selected cerused oak four-poster beds in the primary bedrooms and a combination of custom-carved and upholstered headboards offset by custom wallcoverings. *![Rooms 080](https://www.studioidc.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Rooms%20080.jpg?width=2000&height=1139&name=Rooms%20080.jpg) * **The Art of Hospitality** Studio IDC seeks to create spaces that inspire and support relationships. We believe good design brings people together, fostering community and family while providing luxury and comfort. Our vision for Cap Maison was to offer guests a place to have unforgettable experiences, and we believe we exceeded that goal. * * *To keep up with the Studio IDC family, follow them on [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/studioidc/), [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/idcdesignconcepts), and [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/company/studioidc/)! *   Tags: [Design Trends](https://www.studioidc.com/blog/topic/design-trends), [Caribbean Boutique Hospitality Interior Design](https://www.studioidc.com/blog/topic/caribbean-boutique-hospitality-interior-design), [Restaurant Design](https://www.studioidc.com/blog/topic/restaurant-design), [Project Spotlight](https://www.studioidc.com/blog/topic/project-spotlight) ![Studio IDC](https://www.studioidc.com/hs-fs/hubfs/IDC%20-%20Author%20-%20Logo2.png?width=100&height=100&name=IDC%20-%20Author%20-%20Logo2.png) #### Written by [Studio IDC](https://www.studioidc.com/blog/author/studio-idc) This is a search field with an auto-suggest feature attached. - There are no suggestions because the search field is empty. ### Follow us - - - - [![VIEW HOSPITALITY PROJECTS](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/4386190/0c72bc3a-ba40-4d56-8888-027d5b227cf8.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/4386190/0c72bc3a-ba40-4d56-8888-027d5b227cf8) [![VIEW RESIDENTIAL PROJECTS](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/4386190/39b95510-3dce-4282-a21f-96b2b0dd4f51.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/4386190/39b95510-3dce-4282-a21f-96b2b0dd4f51) ### Subscribe to Email Updates ### Browse by Category - [Advocacy (1)](https://www.studioidc.com/blog/tag/advocacy) - [Bisnow (4)](https://www.studioidc.com/blog/tag/bisnow) - [Boutique Hotel Design (2)](https://www.studioidc.com/blog/tag/boutique-hotel-design) - [Caribbean Boutique Hospitality Interior Design (10)](https://www.studioidc.com/blog/tag/caribbean-boutique-hospitality-interior-design) - [Caribbean Interior Design (7)](https://www.studioidc.com/blog/tag/caribbean-interior-design) - [Commercial Interior Design (3)](https://www.studioidc.com/blog/tag/commercial-interior-design) - [Design Community (9)](https://www.studioidc.com/blog/tag/design-community) - [Design Trends (10)](https://www.studioidc.com/blog/tag/design-trends) - [Event (6)](https://www.studioidc.com/blog/tag/event) - [Family Business (8)](https://www.studioidc.com/blog/tag/family-business) - [Insider (1)](https://www.studioidc.com/blog/tag/insider) - [Jumby Bay Island (2)](https://www.studioidc.com/blog/tag/jumby-bay-island) - [Miami Interior Design (8)](https://www.studioidc.com/blog/tag/miami-interior-design) - [Miami Interior Designers (11)](https://www.studioidc.com/blog/tag/miami-interior-designers) - [Miami Residential Interior Design (2)](https://www.studioidc.com/blog/tag/miami-residential-interior-design) - [Minotti (1)](https://www.studioidc.com/blog/tag/minotti) - [National Patch Day (2)](https://www.studioidc.com/blog/tag/national-patch-day) - [NEWH (4)](https://www.studioidc.com/blog/tag/newh) - [Notes from Stephanie (2)](https://www.studioidc.com/blog/tag/notes-from-stephanie) - [Oliver Patch Project (3)](https://www.studioidc.com/blog/tag/oliver-patch-project) - [Project Spotlight (4)](https://www.studioidc.com/blog/tag/project-spotlight) - [Restaurant Design (4)](https://www.studioidc.com/blog/tag/restaurant-design) - [Stephanie Tyler (3)](https://www.studioidc.com/blog/tag/stephanie-tyler) - [Todd Tyler (3)](https://www.studioidc.com/blog/tag/todd-tyler) - [Tropical Modernism (2)](https://www.studioidc.com/blog/tag/tropical-modernism) [See all](https://www.studioidc.com/blog/cap-maison#) --- ### Related Posts ### [Designing for Resale in Private Island & Caribbean Luxury Markets](https://www.studioidc.com/blog/designing-for-resale-in-private-island-caribbean-luxury-markets-1) ### [All in the Family: An Interview with Trisha Brookbank, VP and Daughter of Studio IDC President Stephanie Tyler](https://www.studioidc.com/blog/all-in-the-family-an-interview-with-trisha-brookbank-vp-and-daughter-of-studio-idc-president-stephanie-tyler) ### [2024: A Year of Recognition and Momentum](https://www.studioidc.com/blog/2024-a-year-of-recognition-and-momentum) [![Studio IDC](https://www.studioidc.com/hubfs/2019%20Website/images/Studio-IDC_WEB_LG.svg "Studio IDC")](https://www.studioidc.com/) ![ADPD_Badge_FeaturedDesigner_White_26](https://www.studioidc.com/hs-fs/hubfs/2019%20Website/images/icons/ADPD_Badge_FeaturedDesigner_White_26.png?width=89&height=97&name=ADPD_Badge_FeaturedDesigner_White_26.png)  ![ncidq - med 96x96](https://www.studioidc.com/hs-fs/hubfs/ncidq%20-%20med%2096x96.png?width=82&height=82&name=ncidq%20-%20med%2096x96.png) 4912 SW 72nd Avenue Miami, FL 33155 Phone: 305.665.1616 - - - - ## Newsletter      ## Contact Us © 2025 Studio IDC.
