Each villa is an independent whole-house rental, with a private pool in a space where Okinawan red-tile roofing and Bali-style fittings harmonise.

Visiting tips & what to bring

The private nature of all independent villas is the appeal, with free parking for 6 (no booking needed). Arrival after 17:00 needs advance notice, and arriving past 21:00 may be treated as a cancellation, so mind your arrival time. When using the private beach or pool, marine shoes and sun shade are reassuring. Restaurant meals are by advance booking, and food allergies are accommodated within possible limits by prior consultation. Being a facility type the footing is good, but easy-to-walk shoes are recommended when going down to the beach.

For families with small children

As stays by pre-school children are not allowed, it is not suited to families with children aged 0 to 6. It is a whole-house villa emphasising a quiet adult stay, and the private pool and restaurant have a calm adult-oriented atmosphere. With infants, separately considering a child-welcoming inn is reassuring.
