Outside Space

The villa has been designed to extend the living space outside to some beautifully furnished and well thought out terraces on which to dine and relax. The infinity pool here measures 16.5 metres long by 5 metres wide and is in our opinion one of the best in the area. The pool terrace is furnished with sun beds and parasols. A feature wall, and inset mood lighting which make this a wonderful space to be in the evening, and where better to enjoy a sundowner than in the integrated semi-circle Jacuzzi. There is plenty of shade at the back of the terrace too. 

​At first floor level, again, partially shaded, a large L shaped terrace wraps around the living space and is furnished with a dining set up and comfortable rattan lounge seating. The luxury of exceptional space, a wonderful location and excellent amenities, the Boat House is an extraordinary place to holiday.
