The scheme
Three pavilions, raised on stone
Three two-story pavilions stand in a row, joined at both levels by covered walkways, and the whole resort is lifted a full story on piers of dark lava stone. Cars park underneath, in the pier level.
You arrive on a circular drive around a planted island. The stair rises to an open-air entry hall cut straight through the middle pavilion. From the steps you see the garden, the pool and the mountains through the building.
The middle pavilion holds the restaurant, the lobby and the library. The two flanking pavilions hold the guest suites, each with its own deep verandah behind teak louvered screens. Behind the row, an infinity pool runs its far edge out toward open rice land and the Halcon range.
The architecture is the coastal contemporary of the neighborhood itself: low wide-eaved roofs in dark standing-seam metal, white stucco and lava stone, ipe soffits, glass that slides away behind timber screens.
