At the center of the home, a striking kitchen features custom wood cabinetry, a blue-and-white tile backsplash, high-end appliances, and an expansive island that seamlessly connects the living and dining spaces.

Indoor and outdoor living merge effortlessly around a central courtyard pool framed by intricate tilework and arched openings, complete with an integrated bar and grilling area. A detached casita offers guests a private escape with a full bedroom and bath. Above, a rooftop terrace elevates the experience with a second heated pool, fire pit seating, outdoor bar, and grill, all overlooking Alys Beach.
