These include both a gas stove and convection oven with special warming drawer. The kitchen is ideal for entertaining and connects effortlessly with the dining and living spaces. A beautiful eight-seater mahogany dining table stands between the kitchen and the formal lounge and offers lovely views out over the deck and ocean beyond. Leading off the living room is an informal lounge and home office, which can be closed off from the main living areas of the apartment by thick glass sliding doors.

The elegant lounge is furnished with white leather couches, plush carpets, and unique and unusual artworks and sculptures. The bright and airy space is flows seamlessly onto the balau timber decked patio, which has panoramic mountain and sea views. A foldaway deck-cover awning provides welcome shade and privacy for hot summer days, while a private rim flow pool overlooks the shimmering Atlantic Ocean in the distance. A modern gas BBQ, outdoor lounge and dining table for six and elegant planters that light up when the sun goes down make this area ideal for entertaining.

Ample wardrobe space, glittering Swarovski crystal bedside lamps and a high-gloss mirror frame contrast against the split marble feature wall.
