The morning sun has turned the sea and the dew on the palm trees to silver. The non-stop trade winds waft through the rooms of the villa and the aroma of fresh-baked bread works its way from the kitchen to my bedroom window.

Designated a protected coconut plantation, the 3-acre grounds are dotted with 200 healthy coconut palms. Beds are piled high with plump pillows and duvets. Euro-chic bathrooms are immaculate. The outdoor Jacuzzi and the long pool are ready to refresh you. The soft beach, private tennis court, and HD flat screen televisions keep everyone entertained. The live reef 30 feet off shore is great to explore.  And naps in the hammock are always an option.

Pocket doors on triple tracks disappear completely into side walls, opening these rooms seamlessly to the vast ocean view and air. Textures of original cut stone, creamy Travertine marble and Jatoba Brazilian Cherry form a handsome backdrop for the chic new furnishings. Custom lighting systems and original art top off the clean crisp interiors.

Dining at this beautiful villa is memorable. The inside dining room features a rare tree trunk table for 10, a single thick slice from a local Tamarind tree. (This table is one of the most photographed features of the villa). Low poolside tables are great for kids’ dinners, cooked to order and served prior to parents’ dinners. Adult candlelight dinners are served in the piece de resistance, the new 400-sq-ft beachfront pavilion under thatched roof, made magic by long cushioned banquettes, quadraphonic sound and the lights of town sparkling across the bay.

Tennis is right here on site (racquets and balls provided) and our excellent pro, Neal, is nearby to hit or give lessons for various rates. He’s especially wonderful at teaching children.

All bedrooms are fully air conditioned and the common areas are cooled by ceiling fans and the ocean breeze.
