Rainforest Penthouse Apartment

Two bedroom apartment covering the entire upper floor (1000 sq ft) with stupendous views from over 500 sq ft of covered deck with cathedral ceiling which provides the main living and dining area.

Most people who walk into Rainforest comment on how amazing it is and that it exceeds their expectations. The living and dining area has a real WOW factor and is a very spacious open plan space some 30 x 20 feet with gorgeous cedar hardwood floors sitting under a vaulted roof that is specially designed to allow the breeze to move through. The panoramic views arc across 180 degrees with views to the setting sun in the West and to the beach and ocean below.

Bedroom 1 is spacious and comfortable with a queen size bed and looks out over the deck to the ocean and beach. It has storage and hanging space, as well as a chest of drawers, bedside tables, lamps and a chair.

Bedroom 2 is a medium sized room with two single beds that can be put together on request to make a double bed. It has French doors with wooden slats that open directly on to a new (2009) 12ft by 15ft deck where you can sit in the garden surrounded by tropical flowers and shrubs with views of both the ocean and valley beyond. There is outdoor furniture for relaxing during the day or stargazing at night. The lighting has dimmers so you can adjust it to suit your mood. You can also access the deck via a passageway that runs along the back of the house. The second bedroom is furnished with a chair, hanging space, bedside tables and a chest of drawers. The floor is the same beautiful yellow cypress as the rest of Rainforest.

Everything in the apartment is new and well appointed. There is a modern and well-equipped kitchen (with good quality pots and pans, cutlery, china and glass, toaster, coffee and teapots) and a recently refurbished shower room and toilet. Outside you will find a second shower for getting the sand off after you have been on the beach. We also provide a small security safe for keeping cash, documents and other valuables.

Our intention is to provide for guests a simple yet high standard of living environment. Hot and cold water, quality mattresses, white bed linen, free standing ventilator fan, house towels and full size frame mosquito nets are provided to ensure your comfort and well being. A hair dryer and a hammock are provided as well as a CD player. There is an abundance of soft lighting controlled by dimmer switches to enable adjustments to meet your needs and mood. Jeanell, our housekeeper, is available to do laundry for a small fee. Towels and bed linen are changed every three – four days at the same time as a light clean up.
