9 Ideas for a Modern Resort-Style Home

1. Escape to Your Backyard

Under the patio, hang multiple paper lanterns or woven pendants and they'll float in the breeze. Or place your table in the lushest part of your garden and string lights over the table and from the trees

2. Bring Nature Indoors

Bi-fold windows and doors seamlessly connect indoors and out. A wall of doors to a large patio or garden will make a living room, dining room, kitchen, or bedroom feel bigger, brighter, and more airy.

3. Create a Beautiful Garden

All too often, people have a beautiful window over their tub and they're just looking at their neighbor's fence. We recommend a tall cactus, blooming succulents, native flower bush, or tree depending on space depth.

4. Open the Bar

For a hotel lobby look, make your bar a focal point in the living or dining room. On trays, place your favorite drinks, colorful glassware, easy-to-use tools, cocktail napkins, and garnishes. 

5. Add Stripes

A budget-friendly way to pull it off is by purchasing MDF panels or plywood planks. Paint every other plank your choice of blue for a graphic look. Put up striped wallpaper for a similar effect.

6. Create a Warm Welcome

Add words and phrases to your home's exterior with metal house letters. A fun greeting or farewell framed poster can be added if any of the above options seem too much like a commitment.

7. Magicalize a Wall

Consider adding a non-traditional mural. Largen a photo of your location or a destination you want to emulate. Just a high-resolution image and Canvas Champ can turn a photo into a wow moment.

8. Dip in a Spool

You can relax at a resort without a big pool. A "spool"—a small spa-pool—can be heated in winter and cooled in summer. Best of all, its small footprint makes it cheaper and suitable for small backyards. 

9. Don't Skimp Seating

Lounging on a hotel sofa upon arrival is unmatched. Choose soft, light-colored wall-to-wall sectionals and sofas for your home. Add low ottomans and plush poufs for more intimate conversation.
