We have a small suite.
The curtains and light fixture in the sitting room yesterday evening.


And the views (including glass roof or the bar area) from sitting room this morning.

OMG Limes. I love you and all, but I never thought you could look more delicious than the food.

You do.

The island this hotel is on is tiny. We made it up to the top yesterday.
Today we did it again by a different route. Here are some views of the building.

We also went down to the private tidal pool.

This is the view back up to the hotel.

But we cannot get over the fantastic interiors!
A bookend in the library.

And a cabinet in the library.

And a desk.

Very clever of you to arrange let's-stay-in-bed-and-snuggle weather.

Looking up into the ballroom where we had dinner last night.

Decorative detail by the steps up to the ballroom.

Glass ceiling in the palm court bar.

Beside the steps up into the ballroom.

We had some weak sunshine this afternoon and watched everyone having fun on the beach/causeway.


This is how you get across when the causeway is under water.

Please tell me you're going to murder someone.
I won't tell, I promise.
