Maison Blanche Lagoon Airy Summer House

Welcome to my airy home - in fact, there are always places where you can enjoy the sea breeze as refreshing, so heat is also well tolerated.

Even better, the landscape can of course be seen from the roof terrace, with views in all directions and the wide sky above.
