The Space
Welcome to Piedras Hermosas, a vintage 1970s split-level home that blends retro charm with modern convenience. The Great Room is designed for fun and relaxation with a large leather sectional, pool table, dart board, smart TV, wet bar, plus books and board games.

Gather in the dining area or relax by the wood-burning fireplace on winter nights. Off the dining room, a sun-filled solarium opens to the refreshing pool (unheated, May–Sept). The kitchen is stocked with essentials to make meals easy.
