fantastic views, but the architecture of this terrace do not lend themselves to be "intimate" but some well planned landscaping can soften the places significantly

Expert Opinion:
the width of this wrap around terrace make it very pleasant, and the multiple access points make it practical, the one drawback is that the largest, most practical spot for entertaining is next to the bedrooms.
