Step outside to your tropical backyard oasis, surrounded by lush landscaping and native Florida palms. Enjoy the heated saltwater pool (8,400 gallons, sun shelf, main depth 3–5.5 ft) surrounded by lounge chairs and a stargazing hot tub. Pool temperature is maintained at 80–85°F even in cooler months, included in your nightly rate. Rinse off in the custom hot & cold outdoor shower, then retreat to the two shaded pergolas, each with outdoor fans and evening lighting—perfect for enjoying Florida’s sunshine in comfort. Under the pergolas, relax in the patio seating areas with a 65" TV, loveseat, and dining table for four, or head to the “adult side” featuring a 75” TV, beverage cooler, and high-top table. Fire up the propane BBQ grill and dine al fresco, then unwind with your favorite beverage in style.
