This is the Villa Rockstar, which is a four-bedroom facility and was designed as a land yacht. It was home to Yachting during our stay and it offers all of the world-class service and amenities of a top-notch yacht charter, including 24-hour butler service, an array of watertoys, personal gym and private beach access. Of course, the ocean views are stunning. Patrick Sciacca

Eden Rock’s Villa Rockstar is also equipped with a recording studio where you can go and record almost any song you’d like. That mixing console is from the Hit Factory, a famous New York studio and was used by John Lennon to record his classic song Imagine. Country star Kenny Chesney also recorded here.
