Located on the highest point at the renowned Tryall Club, Point of View sits on one of the most spectacular sites in the Caribbean. From its unique vantage point, a sweeping panorama stretches down the mountain and across the 18-hole championship golf course to the deep blue Caribbean and distant horizon. Despite its lofty perch, this private home is just minutes from the Great House, beach, golf and tennis pro shops via the villa's complimentary transportation carts (two four-seaters and one six-seater).
An all-over renovation recently closed the home for two years. The result is a picture-perfect palate of 18th and 19th Century Colonial furnishings in tasteful harmony with this 21st Century transformation. Remarkable are the natural cut stone floors, custom etched so they are actually cool and soft under foot. Bedroom floors are gleaming wide-plank mahogany complementing Chippendale, Queen Anne and Regency furnishings.
The Point of View grounds are a paradise for bird watchers and the homeowner created a safe haven here for colourful love birds, finches, white doves, and beautiful Amazon Green and African Red-tailed Grey parrots. Don't miss the oldest occupant who lives in the fountain, our resident turtle.
For horticulturists, this vacation experience is enriched by an amazing 17 species of palms . Other artistically-placed blooms are Frangipani, Datura and gorgeous ginger lilies. The Sun Vanda orchid garden flourishes here and the Lantana attract butterflies.
Meals at Point of View merit special mention as Chef Conrad excels at his craft. His organic garden produces urugula, tomato, lettuce, sweet basil, chives, eggplant, parsley and much more. Memorable meals are served on Limoges, Villeroy & Boch and Lynn Chase tableware with fine silver, crystal and linens. Even the napkin holders that complement each setting are distinctive!
