Decorated and built in a rustic-chic style they are all fitted with a private pool opening onto their own stretch of lagoon, with some water villas featuring water slides going directly from the top deck into the lagoon below.
Every water villa offers extravagant spaces with the smallest measuring 400 sqm and the largest 1800 sqm. One of the main highlight of the villas is the retractable roof in the master bedroom, which slides back at the touch of a button so that guests can lie in bed and stargaze.
