We enjoy the beach and the heat, but as Canadians, we do not have built-in ability to sustain that heat and sun for long hours. So, in Casa Ventura, we have our refuge close to the beach: a perfect mix of sun and shade throughout the day, in addition to having a pool, to give us a chance to lower body temperature even further. Being from British Columbia, we enjoy being close to nature: in Casa Ventura, we have that perfect mix of being close to tropical forest, yet close to town. What we hear: tropical birds and animals. What we see: tropical greenery when we sit in rear patio by the pool.
The house is open concept: roomy, yet not too large, with local feel, local feel that is enhanced by paintings of local landscape, made by original owner who was an artist.
