Akasha

Akasha – the ultimate in paradise

A contemporary villa designed for Caribbean living, Akasha combines the best of modern living with the relaxed lifestyle of the Caribbean. Every room boasts spectacular views, with huge floor to ceiling windows and minimum distractions from the stunning vistas.

Featuring a state of the art Lutron lighting system, and whole home Crestron music and video distribution you can relax by the pool with your favorite sounds delivered right from your iPod, the music server or internet radio. Listen to the same music in any of the rooms inside the house or on the lookout level while enjoying the spectacular views.

The great room includes the lounge, dining space and the kitchen. If you fold the 10ft high glass doors then you can fully appreciate the views or just walk onto the main terrace where further seating allows you to relax in the gentle breeze which blows across the location.

The detail and thought put into the design includes strategic locations of windows allowing the breeze to pass through the house and reducing the need for the air conditioning making the villa more environmentally friendly. The eco thinking has extended to capturing rain water in a separate tank and installation of solar panels for hot water.

Offering a fully air conditioned environment Akasha also boasts a 9 seat theater with best sound quality. The room was constructed using ‘floating’ room techniques found in world famous concert halls.

The games room offers the opportunity to play some pool, poker or table tennis or if you wish just watch the ‘game’ on cable. Take the elevator upstairs and entertain guests in the main bar area and play the 1976 Yamaha grand piano.

The elevator travels up further to the master floor level. The master bedroom boasts a super king size bed with views over Pigeon Island, a private balcony and a bathroom with double hot tub. While you lie in the tub or take a shower, you can watch the TV or listen to your favorite music all at the touch of a switch. The Master level also has an extra room which could be used as a study or bedroom for a younger member of the family.

The top level has a Look-out for watching the world go by or star gazing at night. Here you can see the Pitons, Mount Gimme and both the Caribbean Sea and Atlantic Ocean – truly remarkable.

Defined in Sanskrit text as 'Ether', the most subtle of the five elements and in Homeric Greek as "pure, fresh air" or "clear sky", Akasha is a positive substance, filled with unseen energies and intelligence.

Akasha sits on a hillside in the exclusive Cap Estate overlooking the Caribbean sea with views down to the world heritage site of the Pitons and of the national park – Pigeon Island. From this unrivalled location and with a glass of wine in your hand you can watch the sail boats and mega yachts as they head into the Rodney Bay marina or watch the stunning sunsets.
