Rooms

The resort is home to just 50 villas, each with a private garden or terrace with sweeping views across Chalong Bay. The interiors are the work of Australian artist John Underwood, who describes his style as ‘down to earth’, and combined rich colours with natural materials for an authentic, welcoming feel.

All villas come with air conditioning, but superb insulation and roof ventilation keep the rooms comfortably cool, allowing guests to enjoy a naturally temperate environment even when it’s not turned on.
