CONSTRUCTION NOTE: As is true in any popular destination, construction of new homes continues in Peter Bay areas. As of summer 2010, well below and far to the right of Villa Carlota there is a new home underway. The activity there is apparently far enough removed, and has never in the past been noisy or intrusive to our guests at Villa Carlota - no complaints have been received. At this time the concrete pour work is completed, but construction is very intermittent (on again, off again, and if it is going on occasionally, the crew working there is very small). However, if you would like further details on the current status of this activity, please inquire and we'll be happy to obtain the latest information for you.
Perched 500 feet on a hillside in the gated enclave of Upper Peter Bay is an elegant sanctuary in a mesmerizing setting. Villa Carlota offers five large air-conditioned bedroom/bath suites in three pavilions.
The villa's main pavilion features a spacious great room which incorporates a large gourmet kitchen bordered by a long countertop with stools. Adjacent is the dining area and a powder room right around the corner. On the other side of the great room is the living area with a 50-inch flat-screen satellite TV, a Bose sound system, and extensive movie and music collections. Louvered and screened mahogany doors open from the living area to the covered verandah with a large table for alfresco dining with a view.
From the great room, a curved staircase leads to the oversized second-level master suite and home office. This grand king master suite features a Ralph Lauren four-poster bed. A large air-conditioned walk-in closet is adjacent. Mahogany doors open to a pergola verandah on the ocean side of the pavilion, furnished with chaise lounges. The en-suite marble bath provides separate his-and her sinks linked by a massive wall-to-wall mirror, a Jacuzzi bathtub, and a separate glass-and-marble shower. Just outside the master bath is Villa Carlota's roofed hot tub pavilion with a coral stone floor. Although the spa pavilion is off the master suite, anyone may access the hot tub from the driveway courtyard or from the great room with a key.
Villa Carlota's third level is a second bedroom/bath suite, this one with a four-poster queen bed. The views from this suite's windows are spectacular.
Back at the terrace and pool just outside the main pavilion, a green 'bamboo' marble wet bar awaits with mini-fridge and icemaker ready for poolside libations and evening cocktails. A stainless steel professional gas rotisserie grill built into a stone grilling area allows for great grilled meals inside or out - the area easily connects to kitchen and dining area via a rear hallway.
Villa Carlota's second pavilion is on the other side of the pool terrace, offering two centrally-air-conditioned king bedroom/bath suites on two levels for excellent privacy.
On the lower level of this pavilion is the laundry room with two washers and two dryers; this area has a private service entrance so that the housekeepers may enter the house from the driveway courtyard without coming through the villa's main entry. A small exercise room adjoins the second pavilion, screened to let the trade winds in. The driveway courtyard has ample parking and turning space for three cars, and an outside shower for after-beach rinse-offs.
Across this courtyard is the charming Cottage Suite, nicely secluded from the rest of the property. Air-conditioned, it is distinguished by cool travertine tile, a living area with a balcony overlooking the main villa, a full bath, a small kitchen with a covered patio for alfresco meals, and on its upper level, a king (or two-twin) bedroom with a full bath, a large verandah off to its side, a step-out balcony in front, and an en-suite bath.
