Mako

peaceful 3 bedrooms retreat with swimming pool

Villa Mako was built in the early 1990s and then refurbished in 2006. The property is designed for comfort and relaxation and has plenty of spaces for privacy and socializing. In addition to the many indoor and outdoor lounge spaces, guests have the choice of three dining areas. The villa comprises an open-sided feature kitchen and an air-conditioned media room facing each other across the pond. The main building incorporates a living and dining hall and three bedrooms. Beyond this is a beautiful garden which rolls down to a swimming pool and outdoor dining pavilion.

The expansive living and dining hall features folding doors at either end that can be opened to allow the cool breezes and closed for air conditioned comfort. The room is furnished with a formal teak dining table for ten, lit by globe-shaped lanterns. The semi-open-air feature kitchen at Villa Mako is situated on one side of the pond. It is fully equipped with all modern amenities. A guest washroom is located next door. All the three bedrooms are spacious, air-conditioned and have ensuite bathrooms. The cosy media room is furnished with an oversized sofa and is equipped with a TV and DVD/CD player. A high quality sound system is linked via a portable iPod docking station to speakers all around the villa.

Steps from the entrance of villa Mako lead down to the swimming pool. The sun terrace is furnished with sun loungers, umbrellas, and a table and chairs. The beautiful garden then rolls down to a river located behind its boundary walls. An adjoining fence separates the main house from the pool to ensure the safety of young children. On one side of the pool, there is a barbecue pavilion, with a dining table for six, a fridge, and speakers for the sound system. A washroom is situated behind the pavilion. Additionally, there is a poolside relaxation bale, fitted with a colourful mattress and cushions.
