ROKU TV is provided and includes many free channels but you will need to login with your own Netflix, Prime Video, Disney + or other streaming service for more options.

Third Bedroom:

As spacious as the second bedroom, this former office now hosts a queen-sized bed

Guest Bathroom:

As with the master bath, granite counter-tops and Kohler faucets adorn this bathroom with a shower/tub combination. This bathroom is steps away from the second and third bedrooms and nicely accessible from the living room area.

Balcony:

Enjoy the morning sun but beat the afternoon heat with this perfectly situated balcony. You can see the pool and hear its water feature but enjoy privacy with the well-placed Palos Verde trees. Six people can enjoy meals on the slate dining room table.

Pool areas:

Bella Monte hosts three separate pool areas, each with a large, heated swimming pool, whirlpool, serene water feature and an air-conditioned and well-equipped exercise room. Having three to choose from is very handy as sometimes unavoidable maintenance can interrupt your visit and you don't want to miss your pool time! This is something to keep in mind as you shop for other options. There are also several communal barbecues to choose from at the pool area with plenty of seating to host a family gathering. There is a nice, clean bathroom beside the exercise room too.
