Luxury Living in Second Life is a lot easier to obtain
than it is in the real world.
Whatever it is you imagine, you can have from
Jacuzzi tubs, fancy cars and private jet to big beautiful custom homes complete
with the landscaping of your dreams.
Sky Manor Resort is highly ranked in the
destination guide and rightfully so because it is a place that brings luxury
living in Second Life to a whole new level.
The grand entrance to the office is impressive and neatly
decorated. The foliage and arches above the stone pathways make it a lovely
atmosphere for taking a stroll around the resort and imagining the feeling of
luxury living. The central road connects
to Westward Village, the rental office, a hotel, club and beachfront
properties. It truly is a splendid place to find luxury and style for those
that are looking to live the good SLife.
I met up with
Dangerous Massacre to learn more about Sky Manor Report and what it has to
offer residents that have a taste for luxury living.
Interview
with Dangerous Massacre
Lanai:
Hi Dangerous, before we begin talking about all the things Sky manor Resort has
to offer. I’d like our readers to learn a little about the man behind it all.
How did you discover Second Life© and is it an extension of your real life or a
creative hobby you found here in the virtual world?
Dangerous: I
learned about Second Life when There.com shut down; I wanted to find a new
virtual home and after trying copycats such as IMVU and Meebs. I finally
thought it was the end for me but found Second Life and created my first
account on August 2004 as a Teen Avatar.
Lanai:
Wow, you have been around for quite some
time. When was your resort established?
Dangerous: Sky
Manor Resort was officially established on February 14th 2013; nearly 6 months from
today and has been constantly growing and changing. I bet that the next time
you visit our place you will always find something different here.
Lanai:
Second Life is ever changing. I’m interested to see the new changes to
come. So, what is your inspiration and
main objective for Sky Manor Resort?
Dangerous: Sky
Manor Resort inspired me after the countless times I've experienced difficulty
or an issue with an particular place it was never enough for me; I was so sick
of having to wait to use my home; I wanted to use my rented place now without
troubles and eventually after working at various SL Real Estate companies for
more than 3 years and my decade of landscaping experience; I decided to craft
something no one has ever done before which is a resort that offers cheap
luxury living and no hassles. When you
rent with us you get access to your room instantly and can start playing with
the house controls and security right away.
Lanai:
I like that no hassle approach. If you
are a busy person in Second Life, time is definitely valued. Are you the sole
owner or do you have a partner or team helping you manage here at Sky Manor
Resort?
Dangerous: No,
me and my real life close friend Brooke Easterwood. She co-owns the
resort. Brooke is very good with money
and pretty much handles the things I have no idea to do while I am in charge of
landscaping and upgrading rooms and suites for tenants. I also am in charge of
handling repairs that may need to be done from time to time.
Lanai:
It sounds like you have a working system
and it shows with how well everything is laid out on the sim. What else does
Sky Manor Resort have to offer Second Life residents?
Dangerous:
Well, I think that's self-explanatory, once you visit here you may never want
to leave.. Our resort offers various rooms and suites for sale; we have condos,
hotel rooms, private homes, executive suites, and remote island homes for rent.
Each of these all have an grid-wide security system that will automatically
warn and reject anyone who enters their suite and has no affect on other
tenant's security systems so unlike some places that share floors you won't
ever be rejected by another tenant's security; you also have furniture packs
that can be instantly rezzed or de-rezzed on demand. As well as house controls
that can be set by you and the ability to invite guests and partners to both
our resident group for rez rights and security for access. Once their rent ends
and they decide to not renew; their automatically removed from the group along
with their friends and guests; their name is automatically removed from the
house control system, security automatically wipes their list, and their
objects get automatically returned in 24 hours if anything wasn't removed by
them. And finally soon residents will have something to go even more crazy for,
video chat! So if someone rents a place here and their friend has a place here
they can actually conduct an in world video chat between each other. That's
coming out this month.
Lanai:
Oh nice, that is a great option for those that like using voice chat. Sky Manor
resort has a hotel that rents out suites like you mentioned. What are the amenities
included like space, prim allowance and price range?
Dangerous: The
hotel suite includes an entire floor with your own room. Trust me it's a big
room! We recently upgraded our hotels and residents were extremely happy. You
get 80 prims for 100L a week; that's really cheap if you ask me. It's already
furnished so you don't need to put your own furniture if you don't want to.
Lanai:
That is a great value, especially on a sim that is well maintained. Let’s talk
about the Luxury Living. Besides the
suites in the hotel, what other type of living space do you offer?
Dangerous:
Well, we offer a lot too much to name but some of the most popular places are
Westward Village and Forest Homes which are beautiful mesh homes that are 2
story's and have 4 bed rooms. The Condos and Hotels are also very popular here
too and offer a very nice view of the resort and the Blake sea.
Lanai:
I have seen them and they are lovely. Do
you create homes yourself and if so, do you accept custom orders?
Dangerous: I'm
not much of a builder so sadly no but I do accept orders for custom landscaping
services or furniture packs.
Lanai:
That’s a great option for those that
have their own personal style. What is the price range for these homes?
Dangerous: The
prices for homes range between 280L-500L a week
Lanai:
Not bad. Can they be purchased and used at other locations or are they only available
for residents at Sky Manor Resort?
Dangerous:
The houses can't be purchased; they're exclusive to the residents at the
resort. Along with the security, furniture packs, and resort features.
Lanai:
That’s another incentive for those that like exclusive items. I noticed you had
a raffle board in the lobby of the Resort office. Can you explain what it is
for and how it works?
Dangerous:
Well, we like to give back to everyone who voluntarily puts our name out there
by profile picks, visiting, or just mentioning us. So, we decided to throw a
monthly raffle for one lucky person to win some lindens.
Lanai:
Fun. You also have a nice party area on the beach, Do you have events at Sky
Manor Resort? If so, how often and what type of parties should residents
expect?
Dangerous: Our
Partnership with Tilly's Club used to run events at our private lost adventure
island but the owner had to focus on RL so as of now we rent out that island
for events. We do plan on throwing some holiday events this year though but our
primary focus right now is upgrading our rooms and suites for our tenants. We
have also thought about running our own club here at the resort long as it does
not lag.
Lanai:
That’s a fabulous idea you are
considering. Griefing and feuding
neighbors can be a problem in Second Life. What type of security do you offer
your residents for a peaceful experience?
Dangerous: We
have the best security available in Second Life; it's an custom high quality
grid-wide system that allows residents to set their guests, anyone who isn't
authorized by this resident excluding staff will be automatically rejected by
the system. We also offer privacy as well; no one can see or hear what you're
doing in your own home. Also tenants will not have to deal with being
accidentally booted from their home as the security systems do not collide and
each tenant has their own custom list not shared with others. Once their rent
ends and they decide not to renew that list gets automatically erased and
becomes available to the next resident that rents. So, it's one of the best
security systems we have available.
Lanai:
Security is a major concern. I’m glad you got that covered. While exploring Sky
Manor Resort I saw a sign that said you were currently hiring. What type of
positions do you have open for readers that may be looking for a job?
Dangerous: Yes
we are hiring for one attendant currently; but anyone can put in their
application at anytime and when we are hiring we will be checking our
application lists at the information center hiring board. So, if you're looking
to become an attendant my suggestion is to put in your application in our information
center job board and see what happens. I do know that with the growing number
of residents and constantly updating features and expansions that we will
likely need more staff every few months.
Lanai:
Indeed. Is there anything else you
wanted to share with our readers about Sky Manor Resort?
Dangerous:
Well, if you're looking for rates that are affordable; pure privacy, full
automation and control, instant rez rights, beautiful landscaped communities,
and lots of space to decorate your new home then check out our resort. We are
ranked the top #3 best place for real estate in the Second Life Destination
Guide! Also, if you have any suggestions for us please let us know by either
messaging me (Justbecauseicanbefriendly or my business partner Brooke
Easterwood) or put a note card in our suggestion box at the information center
and we will personally read it and get back to you. We do take suggestions
seriously because we want to know how we can improve your experience. If for
any reason you had a bad experience with us we certainly want to know about it!
I've never gotten any complaints yet.
So, we must be doing great!
