Here you will find your zen and you will leave with a perfect tan. With a huge infinity pool, a sea-food restaurant, yoga classes offered daily, a relaxing massage inside a cave, and a gift shop to buy all your souvenirs. The hotel is built on a cliff and flora is growing all around it, there are aquariums around the hallways replicating the Greek reefs with its fish. At 12 o'clock you can hear the church bells ringing from the belfry, the waves of the sea and the sound of the seagulls.

I had such a hard time choosing between windenburg and Brindleton bay. Ultimately I ended up using Brindleton Bay because I finally caught lightening in a couple of pictures and thought it was SO cool.
Now Im having builders remorse, I should've submitted sunny windenburg instead >.>

Heh, I started photographing in Windenburg on a sunny Sunday morning, and within half a dozen shots it clouded over. XD Appropriate, since there's real-life thunder outside my house as I'm doing this. I'm still getting some cool shots, and it IS nice to see how my hotel looks in different weather conditions, so I'm rolling with it.

ENTRY DETAILS: I chpose Brindleton Bay to build in. It's my favourite world and one I find more comfortable building in as I prefer the build and buy items. I decided on a beach-style hotel, with individual rooms accessed through their own front doors and porches. The luxury apartments get their own private space at the back of their rooms and have more luxury fittings. I also really wanted to include and outdoor barbecue area and also a stage area for performances outside at night time, one of my fondest memories of being on holiday. I chose to stick to blues and white but did make some of the rooms individualised.

ENTRY DETAILS: (This lot was originally built as a restaurant so I tried to make most tables and desks not really usable except for in the restaurant so people wouldn't be all over the place. This is why the family suite does not have a table and chairs for eating at.) Welcome to Anchors Aweigh Resort. A seaside family friendly resort. We have 2 full suites one design for families and one designed for newlyweds. The family suite has 3 separate bedrooms and baths. There are 2 double beds, one single and a toddler bed. Living space, small kitchenette and private decks. The honeymoon suite has a spacious living area with fireplace and a small kitchenette with a full bathroom on the first floor. Upstairs is a bedroom with private sun porch. A private hot tub for some romantic fun and separate bathrooms for those who aren't quite ready to share everything. We also have plenty of smaller rooms to fit any budget. 4 single full sized bed rooms and 4 double full sized bed rooms. As well as 2 single bed rooms. All have their own private bathrooms. You can enjoy dinner at our in house 'Under the Sea' restaurant, relax in the Red Rum lounge or spend a relaxing day in the sun by our anchor shaped pool. There are 2 small gyms on the third floor one for the men and one for the ladies. Don't worry if you have forgotten anything, we have a lovely little gift shop that offers a little bit of everything. Don't forget to swing by the lobby every morning for your complimentary coffee and pastries. We are just a short distance from the ocean and many little fun trails. We hope you will consider us for your next vacation. You will enjoy the stay at, Anchors Aweigh Resort.

Thank you! It made me wish for rounded pool corners.

@Pallystyle Cool build!

So, as several other builders have already expressed, this challenge - as well as life - got the best of me, which makes me a very sad panda since I really love my build and, worse still, it's actually complete! The only problem is, there aren't enough hours in the day to pull a respectable slideshow together. I even made a collection of guests and employees for the setting too, but I won't have the time I need to do a slideshow for them either, therefore, double sad panda. Anywho. For anyone interested, this is what my resort, called Seaside Heights, ended up looking like...

Happy building and good luck to those who managed to pull this one off!

Oh, I love that glass roof on top!

That's one of my favorite parts of the build too! It allowed the sunlight to filter down the main stairs on all four floors.

I am reasonably sure something is wrong with my game. I have 2 seperate cottages with luxus bedrooms, 1 cottage with all the double bedrooms, the main hotel building (still missing the foyer and office, but 5 bedrooms and the kitchen and dining room finished), one empty cottage, a huge pool and a restaurant so far and I am at 270000...... usually I struggle with money but this time?!?!?! Guess I can tank a ton of money in landscaping later on, but I really really fear tgat my game just forgot to add up the total amount :P

Btw, I used the lot called "Hounds Head", which luckily for me already has a driveway and fences. So much easier

You are doing just fine, @Talea12345 ! Believe me, §750,000 is much harder to spend than you think. I think the generous budget may be there to let your imagination run wild.

I can easily spend all of the 750K ... building and landscaping alone got me over 300K ... hehe

Dear judges.... I would like to ask for an extension - yet again... The pic taking issue is getting the best of me, and I really want to enter. So I ask you kindly to grant me an extension of 24 hours. Thanks in advance...
