Overview

 This recently renovated 5 bedroom home offers a large family all they could want from excellent snorkeling steps off the backyard to a stunning elevated sundeck and freshwater pool. 

The curb appeal of Great Bluff Estates includes a cobalt-blue tiled roof, bright white stucco exterior, and a terra cotta circular driveway that can easily accommodate multiple rental vehicles. The home offers multiple oceanfront decks and balconies, 2 tiers of terraced artificial grass near the shoreline, two cabanas, and a new concrete ocean path entrance. The beach here is naturally pebbly, so the owner maintains a raked sandy area for water access.

Snorkeling here is amazingly diverse due to very few homes in the area and very few people in the water on a given day. We tend to see spotted eagle rays, octopus, lobster, eels, and, of course, many juvenile fish inhabiting the coral heads. There is also rarely any current in the waters here. 

Guests at Great Bluff Estates can relax in ultimate privacy since the owner owns the undeveloped lot next door to the east. The villa is conveniently located within 10-15 minutes of 5 restaurants and another 5 casual island lunch spots.  Some restaurants even offer door-to-door complimentary shuttle service! Two large resorts with manicured beaches, scuba diving, water sports, gift shops, a grocery store, plus a wine and spirits store are a short 5-minute drive away.
