ACCOMMODATION
25 stylish villas, 24 of which are suspended over the water, range from a one bedroom Water Retreat to the super-splendid four bedroom Water Reserve and four bedroom Island Reserve. Ideal for families, this superb and sole Island Reserve offers parents that extra peace of mind, being slightly further away from the water. Using only the finest sustainable materials, each villa has not only been ingeniously designed and beautifully decorated to relax and calm the soul, but to inject a sense of fun. Every villa has its own private pool with plenty of space for sunbathing and snoozing, whether it be on the catamaran nets, the over water swing seat or simply on a wooden recliner.
The master bedrooms are vast and all have a retractable roof; press the button by your bed and let the morning sun stream in and when all that is left is to sleep, drift off whilst gazing at the cosmic sky. The bathrooms and outdoor showers are contemporary and effortlessly cool and most villas have an extra sleeping area off the main bedroom. Each villa also claims a study, small bar/drinks room with private wine cellar, and a relaxed sitting room. Additionally, all villas come with the 5 star ‘Mr or Mrs Friday' butler service, TV & sound system with an extensive movie selection and music playlists, overwater swing basket, espresso machine, personal safe, AC and fans.
FOR FAMILIES
Jani promises to grab the imagination of younger guests. The children's club ‘The Den' and activities such as snorkelling and gardening are on tap and children are encouraged to get involved with valuable projects like protecting the turtles. Add in some dressing up and Lego and it's a package sure to keep them entertained and content.
