The welcoming foyer ushers you into the extremely spacious Great Room, where the expansive sea views framed by the verandahs' arches will stop you in your tracks! The very spacious Great Room is most impressive with its stylish and upscale sink-into furnishings dressed in festive tropical colors; sofas and chairs are grouped for lively conversation and relaxation with family and friends. The Great Room shares space with Christa's just-refurbished kitchen, which now features stainless steel appliances and gourmet cooking facilities, and is big enough for several cooks to work in. An indoor dining area plus adjacent counter stools is conveniently nearby the open-plan kitchen. Covered galleries border two sides of the Great Room; all afford stunning ocean views in nearly every direction and are swept by gentle cooling tradewinds; these verandahs are set for alfresco dining and for lazy days of reading, relaxation, napping, cocktails and conversation in the shade, overlooking the blue ocean. On the Great Room's third side is the sunny courtyard set with the swimming pool. Five large air-conditioned bedrooms are situated off the foyer and strung along the pool courtyard, each boasting its own luxurious bath. Every bath at Christa Villa has been redone in a stunning updated design which combines sleek wood vanities, travertine-tiled showers and a second stone rain shower just outside, partially roofed.
