Description A labyrinth of gardens with secret passageways, alcoves, open areas, and a succession of different outdoor ?rooms?, unfolds like different acts in a play ? each offering a new scene and mood

? The landscaping is inspired by the Jardin Majorelle in Marrakech with its rich intense Matisse-inspired colors- 3 acres are lavishly landscaped in hundreds of species of tropical and Mediterranean plants and trees such as the traveler palms, giant bird-of-paradise, a wide variety of cacti and gardenias. 500 different colored pots in varying sizes and shapes contain annuals and perennials such as morning glory, thunbergia, bougainvillaea and philodendron
? Mexican limestone floor tiles are throughout the property
? Two elevated infinity-edge pools (one Olympic size, one lap pool with hot tub)
? Two deep blue wading pools filled with lily pads and exotic fish
? Dramatic lighting from 300 imported iron lanterns, both hanging and sitting, are in various sizes
