There is a very well-kept secret that up until now, Betsey Johnson has shared with only her family members and a handful of close friends. That Secret is called Villa Betsey! Located in the gated community of Spyglass, 35 minutes south of the Zihuatanejo/Ixtapa International Airport in Mexico. This three bedroom, three bath villa has everything that you would expect from one of the world's top fashion designers! The villa was built from the ground up in 2004 and was custom designed to meet the high level of architectural and decorating standards that Betsey Johnson prides herself on. From the marble floors to the custom built, solid granite, infinity edge swimming pool overlooking the beautiful Pacific Ocean, Betsey has left no stone unturned. Her ultimate goal was to make absolutely certain that Villa Betsey be a perfect reflection of her own personal sensibilities regarding, elegance, beauty, luxury and style. Once again, Betsey has succeeded even beyond her own wildest expectations in a grand fashion!
In recent years, Betsey's popularity as a world renowned fashion icon has grown by leaps and bounds. Thus, between her reality show, personal appearances, fashion shows (and not to mention her two beautiful grandchildren) Betsey has found that she spends far less time at Villa Betsey that she is accustomed too.
Betsey was recently down here at her villa and said to me, and I quote, (this place is just to unf****ing believably gorgeous not to be shared with others) Betsey and I have been the dearest of friends for over a decade now. In fact I was instrumental in the design and over site of the construction of Villa Betsey. So as close friends, as well as neighbors here at Spyglass, she and and I have spent a considerable amount of time siting poolside at Villa Betsey discussing her options. I thinks it's worth noting that our discussions about the future direction of the her Villa were centered around a beautiful marble table, covered with fine white linen which was adorned with fresh rose pedals, two champagne glasses and a of bottle Veuve Ccliquot. (but then again, we are talking about Betsey Johnson, right)? So after careful consideration on all levels, in the end, Betsey has come to the just conclusion that leaving her luxurious villa siting empty for long periods of time is simply unacceptable. As her friend, I can also assure you that for her to let the villa sit idle would also go against the very core of Betsey's nature, which is one of extraordinary and exemplary generosity towards others and her heartfelt desire to share her passions and successes with those around her. Not the least of which are her loyal and devoted fans from around to globe. Without their love and support over the many decades, Betsey Johnson, as we all have come to know and love her, would simple not exist!
On behalf of the Spyglass villa, I am extremely pleased to announce we are working in close conjunction with Betsey and plan to have Villa Betsey added to the Spyglass rental pool and available for occupancy in the early fall of 2014. As is her usual self, Betsey insists on having the entire villa redecorated in honor of this next chapter for her "home away from home" and over the next few months she will personally be overseeing every aspect of the redecoration process, a process that she absolutely adores and is near and dear to her heart, as are all of her creative ventures.
Like a chameleon, Betsey's prowess for reinventing herself, her world of fashion and her many residences gives credence to her genius as a true to life, American fashion icon!
In the weeks to come, we will begin posting photos of the re-decoration process of Villa Betsey on the Spyglass website so that you can follow first hand yet another one of Betsey Johnson's magical and innovative transformations. In addition, we will also begin posting rental information, including pricing, availability, etc.
If you have any comments or questions. We would love to hear from you! Please feel free to contact us again at www.spyglassmecico.com and click on the Villa Betsey page!
On behalf of both myself and Betsey, we can't thank you enough for visiting the Spyglass website and hope to hear from soon! XOXO
Warm regards and best wishes,
