A prime design objective for the project was to maintain the homey and cozy atmosphere of the resort, according to hotel owners. Additionally, the material was chosen because the owners preferred to utilize local stone rather than importing. The varying shades of Jerusalem Stone were also considered the most suitable option in keeping with the tradition and style of the hotel and spa.
In total, the project used approximately 15,000 square feet combined of Grey Gold, Jerusalem Gold and Ramon Cream marble from Jerusalem Marble's Ramon quarry. The stone was given an antique tumbled finish for an Old World effect.
