Sundance at Tryall

Overview

The villa offers a level of comfort that is sumptuous and no expense has been spared in creating a residential masterpiece that will hold immense appeal for families as well as groups of adults.

Sundance is built mostly on one level with a magnificent flow of space that is typically Caribbean and so easy to navigate. The architecture is classically Jamaican with the sense that the outside is being brought inside. The emphasis really is on comfort at Sundance; designer fabrics have been specifically chosen for each room and the collection of paintings and objects has been carefully curated throughout. Of particular note are the beautifully landscaped gardens – both external and internal and to the far right of the house, a superb walking garden has been laid out. There is a highly productive kitchen garden, the produce of which is used in the villa kitchen.

The heart of Sundance is the superb veranda that runs the entire width of the house. It flows seamlessly from a dining gazebo to numerous seating areas, a  heated pool gazebo and bar with a large television, and an elegant indoor sitting room. The large swimming pool is positioned center of the veranda with attractive pool furniture surrounding it. A short flight of stairs leads up to a viewing bar and a second dining area – a popular retreat for evening drinks. To the east and in the lower enclosed gazebo is a private gym.

There are seven bedrooms each with a distinct design theme and all are accessed from the veranda apart from one which is on a lower level close to the gym and with direct access to the gardens. Four bedrooms have king-size beds and three bedrooms have twin beds that can be converted to a king. All have immaculate en suite bathrooms with walk-in showers; one king bedroom and two of the twin bedrooms also have a bathtub and a further king bedroom has an indoor as well as an outdoor shower. The owner’s suite (only available when 7 or 6 bedrooms are booked) is to the eastern end of the veranda. It comprises an extremely large bedroom with a spectacular bathroom and a separate equally large private sitting room that opens to a covered veranda. Both rooms are sumptuously furnished in the classic style and this is a suite that affords tremendous privacy and comfort.

A highly professional team is on hand to look after you and comprises a butler, chef, two housekeepers, a laundress, and two gardeners.
