Once upon a time, Mr. Carlton and Ms. Ritz purchas Once upon a time, Mr. Carlton and Ms. Ritz purchased a land from a banana farmer, knowing that they will own the only and private road to a little bay bellow, where they've planned to build a beach. So they've heavilly invested in an infrastructure with a helping hand of Melvin Villaroel, an architect. Then they've built golf course and imported a yellow sand from far away to the land where black sand plays the prime. They've built a lift and the road to what they planned to be their private hotel beach. But in that land, no shore can be private so they had to open it to the public and everyone could go there ever since. #quaintplanet @ #abama  #beach #playa #canarias
