What a view to wake up to - the sun
rising off the Caribbean from my private deck. The
apartment windows are level with the trees in the
neighboring lot so early morning parrots and ibis
heading to unknown daytime locations fly by.
In keeping with my Caribbean theme, I purchased Platano
constructed furniture for the living room. The furniture
is so unique, it is woven banana leaves. I have a TV
with cablevision for those moments during my holiday
that I want to keep up to date on news items or just
have the option to have a movie in the comfort of my own
suite. Thankfully the living room sofa opens up into a
double bed so I have the option to have friends staying
with me.
I can bring my favourite CD’s and lap top for internet
access so I can stay in touch with family and friends. I
love sending those notes saying, “Wish you were here”
knowing friends and family are home bound in the rain,
snow and sleet.
When last in Puebla, I purchased Talavera bases to
support the dining table and bedroom end table. I
covered them with 2 cm thick glass so the colors of the
vases are truly visible. I found four rattan style
chairs with cushions to compliment the dining room.
What a relief to have an in-suite washer and dryer to
eliminate trips to the laundromat during my holidays.
My kitchen comes with a large microwave, stainless stove
with a large oven capacity (Turkey anyone?), a large
stainless steel refrigerator and an in-line water
filtration system. The ice-maker in the freezer, a rare
commodity in Playa, makes the margaritas that much
closer to reality.
The central air conditioning is truly blessing on those
hot and humid nights. During the day I can either have
the air conditioning on or open the front door and patio
deck door and have the fresh, clean breeze off the
Caribbean sweep through the apartment.
I have large built in dressers and drawers and ample
closet space. Even if I visit only for one week, I find
it a relief to be able to unpack and to not live out of
a suitcase.
My three-piece bathroom has a large walk in shower. I
have equipped the bathroom with Talavera toiletry items
that compliment the sink and tiles.
When I enter my suite, the view of the courtyard from
above, and the sound of the fountain and the greenery of
the palm trees and plants against the white building, is
very soothing. Open my front door, I see my large
hand-carved mirror from Patzcuaro and in it I see my
face, stress free, bronze and happy.
My vacation always seems too short with the stress of my
job and every day existence. Coming to my suite at the
Royal Palms allows me the freedom from phones, pagers
and e-mails that I need to help keep what is important
to my life in perspective.
