Trevor Burrowes This house could be showing us a better alternative for north coast hotel and resort development. So far, I haven't seen a better example than Golden Eye Hotel and Resort in Orocabessa:. It is built on property formerly owned by Ian Flemming, author of the James Bond stories.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goldeneye_(estate) The odd thing is that I've been thinking in terms of aristocratic traditions being a part of tourism, and Golden Eye has it in spades. I need to look into how affordable the hotel/resort is compared to others islandwide. Another odd coincident is that I've been dreaming of long, simple, horizontal building shapes, with only jalousie windows and no glass...and lo and behold, this is isn't too far off what the famous author built himself: For a medium-size hotel, the building(s) would be considerably longer, and there could be one or two parallel structures of the same shape, and rising step-like, the one behind taller than the one in front, so that each allowed a view of the sea.
