Founder Victor Siaulys conceived of the resort as a place where one of his daughters, who was born blind, could come to have her remaining senses stimulated. (He has since passed away, and another of his daughters has taken over.) Not only did it become a place for her and her sightless friends, but he also created a foundation for the blind, as well as other philanthropic endeavors.
