barbecue and
bar area, the
garden will unfold before you. The scene is lush, tropical and very natural, yet well-manicured, with an attention to detail only an artist could bestow.

garden walls with a casual flair. Separate paths lead to the and shuffle-board area. This is the perfect setting for everything from a festive family reunion to a romantic interlude for two with champagne. Even outdoor
weddings and receptions can be held here with the assistance of the Tropi Rock staff. The
garden is framed by a series of mosaics that add to the artistic haven created here. Terra cotta suns, chips of reflective glass, broken dishware, seashells and chunks of coral stone peer out from a stucco mix into the dense green of lush tropical plantings. The sound you hear when visiting this web page is that of a Puerto Rican tree frog called the Coqu. You will often hear it in the Tropi Rock
garden, adding to the tropical ambiance there. The sound of rushing water fills the air as a two-story waterfall splashes playfully in a cascade of dancing drops beside the oversized freshwater. Even the
pool shower stands as a testament to the unique vision of the Tropi Rock's owners. Water shoots from the top of a tall rock formation into a mosaic-tiled
pool framed by fishtail palms, anthuriums and other exotic plants. This tropical haven is just steps from the unique
guest rooms and provides a special feeling whenever you open your door.
