Avenida Deseo
Tropical Resort-Inspired Backyard & Front Yard Remodel in California
_edited_edited.png)
Project Description:
The primary objective of this large-scale remodel was to bring tropical Cancún-inspired vibes directly into the client’s backyard while creating private, peaceful outdoor living spaces across both the front and backyard areas. Every design element was carefully planned to transform the property into a personal resort retreat, blending privacy, function, and style.
The home’s exterior received a full upgrade with smooth stucco finish, while new property walls and custom gates were added to create a private Zen-inspired front yard escape. The front yard features drought-tolerant tropical landscaping, integrated lighting, and a custom water feature designed to provide a soothing sound barrier from nearby street noise.
The backyard pool area was fully remodeled with a Pebble Tec Midnight Blue finish, fully automated pool equipment, and integrated lighting for both function and nighttime ambiance. Washed concrete decking with decorative saw cuts was installed to mimic large tile format for a clean, modern look, while an exterior shower area was built with exotic IPE wood surrounds to complete the tropical atmosphere.
The new driveway was designed with turf strip inserts to add greenery and soften the hardscape surface, maintaining the tropical feel even from the curb. This full property remodel created a true resort-like sanctuary for the clients to enjoy their favorite tropical vibes right at home.
