    This grand bathroom has narrow teak wood planks covering the ceiling creating a gorgeous cocoon of wood. Aside from the mirrors above the vanity and the windows, the bathroom is made entirely of wood. One might be hesitant to create an all-wood bathroom, especially when there is always moisture. However, you can’t help but feel like you’re at an amazing spa some place in the tropics.

You can’t help but notice the ceiling is covered with solid wood planks and cross beams to create a unique piece of art. The furniture, most notably the bed, is a bit dated and more on the traditional side. They paired it with modern mirrored nightstands and extra large table lamps that almost look caricature-like. A slight makeover of this room paired with the already beautiful ceiling and ocean view, would create a more inviting place to relax.

    This large and bright formal living room has a Beach-style vibe to its white shiplap plank ceiling and its white exposed wooden beams. This is complemented by the two large wooden shelves on the far wall flanking the fireplace and the TV.
