FIG believes strongly in adding life and meaning with a human story that bonds the guest to a brand and a memorable experience. This is clearly illustrated in Club Med Miches Playa Esmerelda, which the judges at Luxury Lifestyle Awards have singled out as the winner of a prestigious award in the category of Best Luxury Hotel Design in the Dominican Republic 2022. The company was responsible for designing every area of the resort around four integrated villages. The goal was to respect the natural environment and incorporate elements of it into the interiors. This influence can be seen throughout the resort.
Resort Overview
The resort is divided into four main villages, each with its own theme, creating four unique worlds within one resort. Two of the villages – Archipelago and Emerald Jungle are for adults only, while the other two, Caribbean Paradise and Explorer Cove, are for families. Archipelago is a sophisticated oceanfront sanctuary inspired by the sea where the blue and white accents create the feeling of being on an island. Emerald Jungle is inspired by the surrounding jungle, Caribbean Paradise by the bright colours of the Caribbean and Explorer Cove is inspired by the theme of exploration and adventure. The Village Centre is where all the action happens with shops, bar and theatre on ground level and the buffet and other restaurants up a dramatic curved staircase.
Restaurants
Each of the resort’s restaurants has its own unique identity. Emerald Paradise restaurant celebrates the colours and plants of the local jungle with monkey lights dotted around to represent the vast local monkey population. The Underwater Mansion is a couples restaurant with a feeling of diving underwater. With its high ceilings painted white and sweeping views of the main beach and swimming pools, the banquettes are designed as curved waves to tie in with the underwater theme. The buffet is inspired by Caribbean fruit, with the pineapple and coconut inspiring the shape of the food stations.
Bars
A selection of individually designed bars is perfect for relaxation time. A tranquil hideaway away from the beach and centre of the village, Bar Limon is a swim-up bar in the jungle zone. The shape of the bar curves around the pool, and the roof structure is made from materials grown on the island and thatched using traditional techniques. Influenced by the dynamic Caribbean carnival, Coco Plum Beach House is intentionally decorated in a striking clash of colours and patterns, representing the variety of costumes in the parade.
Cinq Mondes Spa
The spa’s zen, minimalist feel was inspired by nature and the hundreds of species of butterflies that make the island home. It’s an oasis of calm with mottled copper-effect feature walls, rich chocolate brown ceilings and dark chocolate tiled floors offset by pale turquoise walls.
At Club Med Miches Playa Esmeralda, the team at Fusion Interiors Group has worked hard to create a combination of natural luxury and Caribbean vibrancy in a stunning, untouched location. The project is the largest five-trident Club Med in the world and one of the most ambitious and luxurious projects the company has ever taken on. It is proud of the result – a unique concept that makes for a stunning and inspirational holiday destination.
