Oh, to be beside the pool in the summertime! Or, even better, in it.
The joy of just floating, the sound of splashes and laughter, the dance of sun glitter on aqua blue, the frosted glass of lemonade (or something stronger), the chaise longue and its cooling, angled umbrella, the zero-edge and that infinite view—how we do love thee! Still, there are times when even the most sophisticated sun worshipper needs a break from the rays.
Enter the pool house: the pavilion, the cabana … call it what you will; that multipurpose space where one can change into a dazzling new two piece, or rinse off and take lunch, grill up an alfresco dinner, or, perhaps, throw a pool party—all within a few barefoot or bejeweled flip-flop steps away from a big splash.
Herewith, Luxury Defined presents a collection of pool houses and cabanas, big and small, air conditioned or cooled by sea breezes, where one can relax, entertain poolside, or even stay the night. So, let’s lounge in the sun, then slip into the shade, and toast to the long, lazy days of summer.
