The American-style Summer House restaurant serves vegetarian cuisine. The poolside bar is ideal for a relaxing drink. There is also a bar with different Southwestern dishes in the area.

“I found the design notably inspired by the 1970s Texas lake house aesthetic, creating a relaxed and unique atmosphere. Its location is advantageous, with walkable access to stores. The outdoor bar by the pool and the intimate dining enhance the experience, contributing to its appeal as a cultural and urban retreat.”
