The exclusive spa area at The Fern Ecotel was conceived by keeping in mind the customer experience. It was more about the luxury and comfort that a person would feel when he would step in to this space. Several themes were discussed while designing but what we felt was a mix of rustic and minimalistic design would bring out a marvelous spa. The Spa is divided in to six different spaces the reception and waiting area the two separate gents and ladies spa areas with a common shower area, common toilet, treatment rooms, and the Jacuzzi space. The pieces of multi-tonal stone is used to clad this spa which gives the interiors a pixelated appearance and with imported natural marble for the Jacuzzi area to give a sense of luxury. The treatment rooms and the Jacuzzi area flooring is finished with wood flooring which give a lot of warmth to the space. All treatment rooms are very well planned with self containing steam room, shower and toilet. Bhavnagar being a three tier city in Gujarat and looking in to the background of the people who would use this spa we have kept the Gents and Ladies spa completely separate but with identical spaces and amenities.
The restaurant design had to walk a fine line between comfort, honesty of materials, and a level of casualness, but still appeal to the average person who’s going out to hotspots all the time. The restaurant space is connected with a special buffet area. It makes use of many elements like wood, leather, lush landscaping at the entrance and natural stone.
The grey travertine stone exudes opulence giving the space a luxurious feel.
The layout of the Cafeteria was kept simple; it combined
very well with the semi-open cafeteria and swimming pool around it. The
minimalistic interiors has a tone on tone colour combination with a bright
colored highlighting wall which plays
with the concept of a modern jaali. The Jalli concept has been thoroughly used
throughout the hotel. The Library has been combined with a business center
which has two nos. of meeting rooms and an internet surfing area. Comfortable
bespoke design chairs with bright fabric highlight the interiors of the library.
Decorative Light fixtures with a dimming option have been provided to control
the ambience of the space. The furniture is finished with high end exclusive
veneer sourced from Ahmadabad.
The Fern Bhavnagar was envisioned by the client as a one
stop destination for all activities. It serves as an oasis for the city where
they would get an ultimate lifestyle experience. Nestled between the
picturesque Gaurishankar Lake on one side and a huge unpolluted Victoria forest
on the other side the Iscon Club and Resort stands proud with the regal
backdrop of the Sundarvas bungalow of erstwhile Bhavnagar Royalty. It’s quite and serene surroundings make you
believe that you are off to hill station for a vacation.
The experience of entertainment and leisure will truly be memorable with multidimensional experiences to tickle your fancy. It has a Discotheque the very first in Bhavnagar which is designed in two levels. The lower level is more open and the upper level is more like a lounge. The best of the music system is used to give out the best sound experience. For a holistic health experience you have a full time gymnasium and Yoga center which can double up as a multi functional space for other dynamic health activities. The interiors have been kept very warm and soothing to relax the mind body and soul. The gymnasium is well equipped with the latest equipments & gym trainers who will help you to shape and tone your body. A never seen before card room has been designed with a complete different feel of material and lights.
