The owner decorated the house for maximum
relaxation and enjoyment of its surroundings
and most of the rooms and living spaces are
open to waterfront views.

Living space with view to pool

The downstairs lounge has an open floor plan where two
walls of pocket doors extend this space onto the verandah and the
breathtaking sea and pool views. Floor to ceiling motorised blinds
can be engaged, offering shade without limiting the views, this
same feature can be found on the upstairs balcony from where the
sea views are elevated and the occasional yacht sails by adding to
the feeling of serenity.
The décor and furnishings were chosen by the owner and unlike
most luxury villas on the island has a quintessential beach house
feel. The oak wood doors, stairs, and accents have all been allowed
to fade naturally. In both the upstairs and downstairs lounges
upholstered sofas have linen cushions in muted tones, which are
restful on the eye, while decorative seashells and coral on tables and
shelves add organic elements.

All of these details strike a harmonious balance so that nothing
detracts from the sublime surroundings. Zinc coffee tables have
developed a wonderful rustic patina and wicker furniture dressed
in crisp white are smartly casual and offer additional lounging and
dining areas on the verandah and upstairs balcony. A bar located on
the upper level is the perfect spot to sip cocktails and watch the sun
sink beneath the horizon.
At the rear of the downstairs lounge a professional Chef’s kitchen
is clad in stainless steel with appliances concealed behind lacquered
white doors, here guests have the option to watch their own private
chef create sumptuous custom meals. A second kitchen at the rear
serves as a prep area and pantry and also offers the option of having
meals prepared behind closed doors.
