The Space A sharing of light and love A second home. A place to relax ....A place to feel taken care of ....Tranquility ....Restful sleeps .... Stargazing in the cool evening air. A place to have your cup filled, rejuvenate and re-energize. Good company when you want it .... Alone time when you desire it. Areas to socialize ....By the camp fire ... In the hot tub ... in the gardens ....on the deck enjoying the view and the gardens. Great food ... Good wine and cheese .....Awesome fresh made breakfasts ... perhaps a little afternoon or evening coffee and fresh made cake (not a promise but a strong possibility). An invitation may be extended at breakfast. Hold a retreat or attend a retreat ... the options are endless ...health and wellness, yoga, fitness, wine, cooking, writing, art, learn Spanish classes....
The Casitas and buildings Environmentally friendly eco housing. Houses made out of filled earth bags. What are the benefits of earthbag building? The benefits of earthbag building are: it is inexpensive, easy to learn and build with, ecological -using mostly earth, durable, earthquake and flood resistant, non-toxic and uses a simple foundation. Any dome uses very little wood, steel, or concrete to build, thus eliminating the need to use these materials that have an adverse affect on our environment.
Come to watch the construction.
Solar power... captured rain water ... reusing water in the gardens, the use of natural cleaning products. Each room may contain special hand crafted furniture from Shawn. Also 1 or 2 casitas will have small kitchens. The Original napkin drawing of how our property will look......
About Shawn and Suzanne Bandick
We are adventurers who always find a way to live every dream and to help others live theirs. In 2001 we moved ourselves and our 2 young children (ages 8 and 11) from BC, Canada to Mexico. Now our kids are 23 and 26 and are back in BC to experience life there however we continue to live in Playa del Carmen on the Caribbean coast of Mexico.
Our background? Suzanne's degree from BCIT is in Marketing Management. She managed stores, oversaw multiple locations; built a million dollar Network Marketing business in BC; is a writer; life coach and home based business consultant. Owning and running a B&B was one of Suzanne's dreams since she was in her 20's so it is time to make it a reality.
