Illustrated map of the Cabrits Resort and Spa Kempinski in Dominica
Art Direction: Claire Kunzman - Anything But Advertising
This post is about the illustrated map only. For information on Cabrits Resort & Spa Kempinski Dominica please visit their official site.
This was an exciting project for a large and brand new resort on the island of Dominica. The project was handled by Anything But Advertising and I was just a part of it all. I was honored to have the help of many folks on staff with Cabrits Resort and Spa Kempinski as well and their feedback was indispensable.
Anything But Advertising contacted me after seeing the work I have done for Treasure Cay Resort in the Bahamas. I was obviously thrilled to create another Caribbean resort map. The resort is still under construction so it took some creative problem solving to get the map as accurate as possible.
I created the illustration using Sketchup with some Photoshop retouching. The graphics, like the key for instance, are done with Adobe Illustrator. I made the lighting a late afternoon so that I could show the shadow of the nearby mountain.
If you have a need for an illustrated map similar to this please contact me.

ABOUT RESORT MAPS:
Clear wayfinding is essential to a positive guest experience, and a well designed resort map plays a major role in making that possible. When guests can easily locate amenities, lodging, dining, and recreation without confusion, they enjoy their stay more and place fewer demands on staff for directions. A custom illustrated resort map provides an immediate visual overview of the property, helping guests orient themselves quickly while reinforcing the resort’s brand and atmosphere.
I have created custom resort maps for a wide range of destinations, from waterfront properties and resort marinas to locations well inland. These projects include rustic cabin resorts set in wooded environments, luxury spa destinations adjacent to golf courses, and mixed use resort properties with complex layouts. In addition to full property maps, I have also produced detailed illustrated floor plans showing the interior layouts of rental apartments and resort accommodations, allowing guests to understand spaces before they arrive.
Clients consistently report that these illustrated maps become one of the most useful tools they provide to guests. They reduce confusion, minimize the need for staff to give repeated directions, and help visitors feel confident navigating the property on their own. Whether used in print, signage, mobile apps, or websites, custom resort illustrated maps offer both practical value and visual appeal, making them an effective investment for resorts focused on guest satisfaction and operational efficiency.
