Designed with an Asian theme in mind, this tropical pool oasis has palm trees swaying in the breeze, creating the perfect place to let your stresses slip away. A lava rock waterfall gurgles next to a shaded balinese meditation gazebo that overlooks a bridge that spans the deep end and 1-foot-deep swimming moats for small kids. Pool is available for use/share from 10 am to 6 pm but the hot tub beside the pool is for owner's private use only. The guests have their own private hot tub at their unit. DISCLAIMER: It is not a private pool but a shared pool with other residents of the main house so there are other residents who will be using the pool occasionally. There is no lifeguard on duty so for liability and safety the pool water slide is not for use of guests.<br /><br /><b>Other things to note</b><br />FAMILIES WITH CHILDREN: If your reservation includes children, we ask that you respect our home and space and cleanliness of the cottage.
