Great site! Fantastic views… The pool relationship with interiors is very grand and the decking onto the beach looks awesome, however, going through bathrooms and toilets to get to bedrooms seems a completely bizarre concept in my opinion. The “glass fenced” toilet in Master Bath. looks a little odd to me too. But overall a pleasant camera software place to hang out.
walking through a bathroom camera software to get to a bedroom??? a little odd
