Main entrance gate is accessed by key or by intercom from inside the villa.
At the top of the stairs, the door to the patio & pool area
The pool is usually a nice comfortable 26-28 degrees. Remember - at the bottom of the steps its 5 feet deep all over! The patio is shaded on 2 sides with bamboo, this gives good day long respite from the sun. There is access to the patio in 3 ways - front door, lounge doors (behind the sunbeds) & double bedroom (off picture on the right)
For those cooler nights, the lounge/dining room is the ideal setting for dinner, looking out towards the pool & the sunset......
This was taken about 8pm on a December evening.... no "airbrushing"!
