Spread across three levels, the villa provides ample space and privacy for all guests. The ground floor includes an open plan living and dining area, a fully equipped kitchen, and one bedroom with two single beds and a private bathroom. The first floor features two bedrooms, each with an ensuite bathroom. One bedroom has two single beds and an additional sofa bed, while the other offers a large double bed with access to a balcony. The second floor includes two more bedrooms, both with private bathrooms. One of the bedrooms has a double bed, a sofa bed, and balcony access, while the other contains two single beds.
