If you've ever dreamt of living the life of a carefree beachcomber, Driftwood is your kind of world away from it all. Up to 6 guests are comfortably accommodated with 3 A/C, ceiling-fanned, and screened windowed bedrooms, each with an ensuite bath.
A ten-minute drive from Calabash Bay, down a long, private drive through a field of blue-flowering lignum vitae trees and rose bougainvillea to "your" house with a stunning view of the sea.
For those who have seen it, Pedro's Bluff is as iconic a view as Diamond Head in Hawaii. The view of this natural landmark is spectacular -- through coconut palms over green lawns that stretch to the ocean's edge to Great Pedro Bluff beyond.
The central living room opens through folding shutters directly out to the sea-view veranda. Enjoy Jamaican, country-style meals prepared by your cook, MARIE, inside in a breakfast nook, outside on the verandah, or on a vine-covered arbor terrace.
Laze on the chaises. Then, stroll down the lawn thru the gate to the right about 100 yards a sandy beach cove with calm waters; your second beach access is the wide sandy beach of Great Bay Beach, the largest and calmest on the South Coast with the best swimming -- it's about a 7-10 minute stroll away along the shoreline towards the left of the property.
