And yet, as magnificent as the home’s interior, the true centerpiece is Villa Atardecer’s custom infinity pool, built into a generous sun terrace topped with sun loungers, outdoor dining, a gas grill, and other ocean-view accouterments.
Villa Atardecer is the kind of home where you don’t just spend time outside; you vacation outside. By the ocean-view pool.

You take a dip in the custom infinity pool. Then, as the sun begins its downward descent, you slip into the bubbling hot-tub. This is where you’ll stay, as the clouds effervesce into a painter’s palette and the sun dips behind the horizon.
This is where you’ll stay, long after the sky blackens and the stars wink back into existence.
