The neutral overall spacial envelope includes fresh colour tones of white, sand, sea grass, warm grays of Spanish moss, shell tones and inspiring pops of coral. Words that help describe the feel of the spaces are: casual elegant charm, natural, weathered coastal landscaping of low shrubs, marsh grasses, palm trees, shells, elements such as birds, and sea grass.

The inspiration was to take common things from the surroundings, give them a contemporary edge, and use them in unexpected ways. For instance, the lamps are made of driftwood and much of the porcelain tile is inspired by the wood planks of the board walk. Guests enjoy friendly southern hospitality, breathe in fresh sea air, see lots of beautiful sunsets and relax. This is a place to have a reunion, a wedding, a conference, a family vacation; a place to eat fresh seafood and local vegetables. This is a beach hotel that people will want to return to, where the relaxed elegance that the guests desire pairs beautifully with inspiration from the location.
