Richly varied massing complements the pure white color scheme. At the heart of the development lies an expansive clubhouse with an 80-room hotel and spa that connects the resort’s central hilltop village with the golf course’s 18th
hole.
Organized around a central piazza at the crest of the hill, the village is a dense interplay of buildings and stepped elevations that create a single organic environment with a mix of outdoor spaces, stairways, and terraced gardens.
