Originally conceived by a well known Mexican Architect this 480 all-suites hotel was designed in a whimsical Arabian style reminiscent of the well-known resort at Las Hadas, Mexico.
As many of the forms such as soaring arches, domes and spires could be easily constructed in Mexico by cheap labor, these forms could not be easily adapted to modern construction techniques.
Our firm was retained to keep as much of the original design intact, yet meet a strict budget. The use of a concrete post- tensioned floor system coupled with precasting (in concrete), the repeating arches and domes accomplished the budget goal.
