Our House, Yaax Che'
In this very Mayan part of the
world, it seems appropriate that
our beach house has an Indian
name. It came up in conversation
with a Mexican friend that the
Mayans have a sacred tree and
its name is Yaax-Che' (yaz-chay),
which translates to "green wood".
For personal reasons this is a
perfect name for our house, and
you will notice the solid wood
furniture and cabinetry are also
finished in deep, emerald green.

This is the front yard.
Beyond the cement wall is
another 30 meters of white sand
beach between the wall and the
water's edge.
Needless to say, there's no
grass to cut, no noisy neighbors,
and the beautiful Gulf of Mexico
and endless beach in both
directions just beyond the gates.

| This is the covered parking area on the back of the house. Covered parking adds greatly to your comfort, keeping your car and its contents out of the blistering sun. It's nice to have when it's raining too. |
| This is the view you will see from the front bedroom windows. |
