Historic Romantic Retreat dates back to the 1880's when this building was used as a cistern. Over the years, a building was added on top of the cistern when rainwater was no longer collected from the gutters. It has been totally renovated with vaulted ceilings throughout. Painted in a light tropical blue with fish and aquatic art by Carrol Swayze, this delightful private unit is next to the pool. An under counter refrigerator, toaster/oven, blender, perfect for light meals. There is also a Weber grill by the pool for your use. A covered veranda at the rear of the pool is perfect for a game or lunch under the fan.
