Sharing ownership and name with the international kitchenware company, the resort capitalizes the "A" (CuisinArt) to highlight its emphasis of food and cooking. It contains its own 18,000-square-foot hydroponic vegetable greenhouse and an orchard, provides cooking demonstrations, offers cooking classes, and features exceptional fare at its two restaurants. Densely planted, the resort's grounds include fields of decorative grasses, flowering hedges, palms and beach greenery. Large blue pots hold plants and flowers in and around buildings.
