Just moved in, so bare with me. I've got some landscaping and a bit of work to do.
I'll update the setup as the summer gets closer.
Cheers!

I need to figure out where I have them all saved 
Here is another one I found for now. I think the architect did a good job of integrating natural boulders with refined wall/paver material.

Pretty simple vinyl liner setup, but we enjoy it immensely. ��

Windmill palms are pretty cold hardy, so they’ve done well (there’s two of them).

Some updated shots of the backyard Bellagio. We moved into the house in mid July and I spent many happy hours working on landscaping and resort lighting installation. It made a HUGE difference!

I wish my queen palms looked as good as yours. They were neglected for quite some time, and I’m slowly bringing them back to life.
Nice job.
Nice job.
Thanks guys. The palms definitely require some monthly maintenance but it beats shoveling snow!
The entire system runs off two 300w low voltage transformers, with a third powering the front of the house. Since taking these photos I've also installed 150 feet of string lights over the patio area (not pictured). And not visible is an 8-way outdoor sound system surrounding the entire perimeter of the outdoor space, hooked up to a dual zone receiver that I hid in the unused lower corner of my kitchen cabinet. This is connected to a ultra-long range Bluetooth on top of the refrigerator, so anyone can connect in their audio mixes.
The entire system - pool LED, spa LED, landscape and path lighting, and audio - are all controlled directly from my iPhone using the Smartlife app. It's fun to take guests out there and hit the "Full System On" button.

Tell me about the app. What r u using to have the app communicate with the lights and audio. The audio over ip? Or ir woth a converter to ip? What about the lights. Rxthey smart lights or isxthe transformer plugged into a smart outlet which is zwave or zigbee? Thier website is kinda vague. I’m always looking for other viable solutions.
