I think that rooms from 119 till 122 could be a good choice because they’re not directly in front of coral terrace, not too close to SPA or SIP/FISH, on the opposite side of welcome-jetty,…what do you think?
Thanks! ;-)
We recently stayed in 106 and loved the location! It was much more private compared to some of the other beach villas due to the density of palm trees and vegetation surrounding the unit. You couldn’t even really see the patio from the beach. We felt very secluded.
It was on a very nice stretch of beach that was close to the good snorkeling near the spa, and far enough around the bend from the welcome jetty that we weren’t staring at people coming and going. This was one of the few villas we saw that had palm trees providing shade directly over the beach. This is totally a personal preference, but I’m a sucker for sitting in the shade of a palm tree, instead of relying on umbrellas.
It could have been due to the way the neighboring villa had their beach chairs positioned, but we also had a disproportionately large chuck of the beach to ourselves. This section of beach also recently had sand redistributed back onto it so the erosion wasn't an issue. As far as sunsets, you won’t be staring straight at it, but we always headed to SIP to catch the sunsets anyway which has an amazing view.
I’ll definitely be requesting this unit again if we can save up enough points to go back!
