Sea Horse Ranch Review
This enclave of 118 private homes, each with large front and back yard and private pool, opened in 1993 as an elite bastion set within a vast country club-like setting. Certain homes are available as rentals with either weekly or nightly rates. It all resembles an upscale American suburb, with a short drive to reach two petite communal beaches. The equestrian center, with dozens of horses grazing on wide expanses, is the most stellar feature. There are five groomed clay tennis courts as well (ball boys are included with a paid lesson). Though all homes include a housekeeper who cooks breakfast (you supply the groceries) and a gardener, you can also request a chef. Sea Horse Ranch will stock your villa for and also has a nanny service. The beach club restaurant, overlooking a dramatic cove, delivers to the villas; it has an international menu, and cuisines include Mediterranean, Sicilian, and Middle Eastern.
