Main house & cottage

Contemporary colonial,
set down on the beach.

i. The main houseTwo king bedrooms, each with its own bath. The central living area is open-plan, with the kitchen island at its heart, and dramatic views of the sea on three sides.
ii. The verandaA long table for outdoor dining on one side, modular linen-cushioned sofas on the other — the part of the house we live in most.
"The kitchen is open-plan, with seating around the cooking island, and dramatic views of the beach and ocean on three sides of the space."
— The Woodstar Post
iii. The cottageA separate dwelling, finished to the same standard. One king master with double sinks and a full bath, plus a berth of four built-in bunk beds — perfect for families with children.
iv. The pool ensembleA shallow pool deck between the houses, with a cabana fronting the sand. Indirect lighting at night, towering coconut palms at every hour.
The bay
The Tropic of Cancer is drawn straight through the water in front of the house. The boundary of the national park lies just offshore.

— A day, lightly sketched

A day at Woodstar.

Three hours worth keeping, and the long, slow shape of everything in between.

I
07:00 · Morning

Coffee, on the
veranda.

The first light catches the pool. Coffee at the long table, fresh fruit from George Town, and the soft sound of the bay below.

II
13:00 · Afternoon

The pool, then
the bay.

Paddleboards out the front, snorkels in the shallows, an hour in the shade of the cabana, and a charter on the days you want one.

III
18:30 · Evening

A chef arrives.
The long table is set.

Cocktails on the porch — a Bahama Mama, if you like — dinner under the eaves, and the slow turn of stars over open water.

A quiet supper
A long table on the veranda — the kind of dinner where nobody checks the time.

The hour before
everything stops.
