The listing also says: "The Master suite offers over 1,500 sq. feet of indoor space, two terraces and a private plunge pool. The master bathroom, which includes an indoor garden, has been designed as a Temple of Water, with the main shower taking a starring role in the middle of the room."

In addition, each of the guest rooms have "a unique architectural design, ranging from open ceiling showers, to bathtubs in the middle of the room, to custom-made furniture."

Other features include a private plunge pool in the master suite, a library, an elevator and a barbecue/picnic area.

Meanwhile, another Love is Blind contestant, Natalie Lee, who appeared on the show's second season, said Perfect Match was filmed in February 2022. Natalie was engaged to Perfect Match contestant Shayne Jansen during their time on Love is Blind and though the pair didn't get married, they did continue to date for a time after the show.

On an Instagram story posted in January 2023, Natalie wrote: "While Shayne was filming the show in Feb 2022, he texted me numerous times he wanted to leave midway through filming because he still had feelings for me after we saw each other for [the] first time since our breakup at the reunion show taping."

She added: "And yes, he was casting for the show while we were in a relationship in Nov 2021."
