Room Type
Careful thought and consideration has gone into the design of every villa, including the landscaping and materials used, to ensure they blend seamlessly into nature. Modern tropical architecture mimics the outdoors and effectively creates a cosy and relaxed ambiance to retreat to at the end of each day. End the night by showering under the stars or share a romantic bath with your significant other. Choose a pool or jacuzzi room in either the beach or water villas if privacy appeals to you. Either way, the glimmering sea is never too far away!
