An espresso machine, wine fridge, and ice maker add thoughtful conveniences, while the detached guest house kitchen offers additional flexibility for extended stays.

Life at Banyan House naturally centers around the water. Spend your days swimming in the oceanfront pool, soaking in the jacuzzi, or lounging beneath the shaded cabana surrounded by lush tropical landscaping. The manicured lawn stretches to the shoreline, creating an ideal setting for morning coffee, outdoor yoga, family gatherings, or sunset cocktails.
Just beyond the lawn, the protected cove invites swimming, snorkeling, and leisurely walks along the water's edge. Whether enjoying a quiet sunrise or an evening under the stars, the setting feels both peaceful and connected to the rhythm of the ocean.
