SeaStar Interior Continued

Now we move to the bedroom and bathroom. The first image shows the southwest corner of the bedroom, with a corridor that leads to the dining room (and has space to hang clothes).


You can see one of the 4 windows (this one looks over the rear lawn leading down to the pond, with various palms and flowering bushes). Under this window you can see the only AC unit in the house. However, since we only rent during the winter/spring (jan-mid may), it is not really needed (and is rather noisy). You can also see a ceiling fan mounted directly over the bed: on low speed this is almost noiseless. Also note that the 2 small refrigerators in the kitchen cannot be heard from the bedroom. Lack of neighbors and noise is one of the key features of Calypso. For us, the greatest luxury of all is to hear only the sound of ocean waves breaking on the outer reef, palms rustling, and the buzz of hummingbirds feeding at the immense firecaracker plant just outside the southeast window.

Here's an image showing the view through the north east window; this window is the only one in the house that does not have a mosquito screen, though these are hardly necessary in the dry season (jan-may).


Next, you see the queensize bed, and also the high ceiling.


Next, the view from the bed to the other side of the room, with the door that leads to the living room and bathroom.


Here's another angle, showing a futon seat that can be unfolded to provide a bed for a child.


We can also install a twin bed for a child (we do not rent to more than 2 adults), and there is a twin bed in the dining room too. I do not seem to have to hand a picture of the best view, through the northwest window, when one is lying in bed. I will add later.

Here's one more view. Bathroom pictures will be posted tomorrow.
