Description of Summer Heights
Island perfection for couples or families! Summer Heights' hillside location affords long-distance ocean panoramas dotted with green islands in the distance and constant, cooling trade winds. A broad staircase of Mexican coral tile leads to the enclosed sunny courtyard accented with river stones. Here the sunny blue-tiled pool overlooks sweeping sea vistas.
A poolside roofed dining loggia provides a beautiful setting for casual dining and viewing sunsets; just adjacent and looking out to the pool is Summer Heights' gourmet kitchen and bar complete with ice cream maker, espresso coffee machine, a bread maker, food processor and blender. Enjoy the starter bar as you toast the breathtaking views of Sir Francis Drake Channel. A stylish curved glass brick wall separates the kitchen from the very spacious Great Room which offers ever-changing views of passing yachts.
The four equal queen bedroom/bath suites, decorated in ocean pastels or shell pinks, are situated along the deck from the Great Room on two levels. The upper two bedrooms have private balconies, and the other two open onto a semi-shaded deck with a double hammock. Each suite features its own telephone, TV, VCR, radio, coffee maker, and all have ocean views. Summer Heights is a relaxed and restful haven with many enhanced amenities such as a gourmet kitchen, an inter-villa intercom, welcome bar, a high-speed DSL line for your laptop, and a full diesel standby generator. A very friendly, light and breezy vacation home for couples or families, this villa is conveniently located to town, shops, restaurants, and West End beaches.
