Water Villas

The bug water villas are fully equipped with all modern comforts. The shower is connected to your terrace so when you get out of the salt water you can directly jump in the shower.

The villa’s terrace is the best place. It is connected to super shallow water with many fishes around. Not having a pool wasn’t an issue at all and if you think it is, just go to their pool on the beach nearby. Book your stay here.

At the end of the day, experience the sunset from your terrace and get ready for dinner.
