An oyster in the raw......

So. There is this amazing little jewel of a resort (but...they are all jewels aren't they?)

on only an acre...though it could be in a tropical rain forest somewhere.

5000 different species of tropical plants...(5000!)

and colorful birds taboot.

It is unpretentuous. Quiet.

a treasure chest of a place.

ahhhhh

It has an organic (sans chlorine) pool that have fish swimming in it.

Waterfalls splash gigundus leaved Taro plants...

appropriately, as it is called Taro Gardens.

And all a part of the Sundy House in Historic Delray Beach, FL.

Tiny, yet huge, hidden... yet full of personality.

There are tropical trails throughout the garden...


Gazebos where you can dine.

Only 11 rooms...or little cottages. Beautifully appointed.

A little village all of it's own.

Each room/cottage different...different art, different color...

Simple. Not over the top. Like a good friend.

It is called the Sundy House...after the 8 term mayor that lived in it.

Victorian...with a touch of fun!

The restaurant puts out THE most amazing brunch I have ever been offered...
ever. And food and wine magazine agrees.
The gardens are simply beautiful, and you can stroll between courses...

or dine out with the flora...and some singing colorful birds.

why not?

Don't worry...you won't bother them in the least.

they are happily home...too!

SUNDY HOUSE.....close,

but sooo far.
