    The area looks clean and very lush with vegetation. I used to go to Trinity College in the late 70's. I lived in La Seiva and would catch the taxi on Saddle Road. The taxi would drop us somewhere down the road and we would walk up to the college. On the left hand side of the road just before you reach the large field (which used to be our football pitches) there weren't any houses as seen nowadays. That whole road along the golf course used to be the remnants of an old cocoa plantation. We were always diving in there looking for some nice cocoa. That was one of the benefits of going to Trinity! 😂 I wonder if any of the new property owners kept some of the trees on their plot? It's a pity to bulldoze those nice trees that bear such a lovely fruit.

    Found myself driving through these roads recently trying to figure out what color to repaint my house. Neutral colors are my style as well. I detest bright colors. Btw if you want to see some huge modern houses head over to valsayn north. IMO the houses there are even better than those in Goodwood park. As for a castle house, if you drive through Boy Cato Road Las Lomas. Someone literally built a castle. Lol.

      By vacation spots you are referring to hotels, guest homes or resorts? In the immediate area there is only the golf course as a highlight and of course going over the mountain will take you to Maracas, etc. However, I do not recall any places to stay being near to Haleland Park. The closest is probably the Royal Palm Hotel.

    As a global traveller I've seen some exquisite homes..meticulously designed and maintained neighborhoods over the years! Throughout the Caribbean the building codes and zoning laws are not rigorously enforce even in our most exclusive housing developments! As seen in this video it's confusing to the reason why there's such attention and care to some residences while smack in the middle are numerous eye sores! If one's is desirous of purchasing a property in one of these exclusive neighborhoods there's a service fee payable every month as I've seen in many of the advertising! Who exactly collect these fees and to what services are those funds ascribed! Certainly not the maintenance of the roads as the roads shown in this video is just as deplorable as those in low income neighborhoods..Many upper income communities abroad are inclusive of playground, swim and community clubs and relaxation parks with benches, tables etc! Nothing of the sort seem in this video! Do these folks even know their neighbors?
