The Water Villa Suites and Residences have all the luxuries found in most
exclusive resorts. However, while offering all these facilities, the utmost care
has been given to make the Resort environmentally-friendly and to reflect the
harmony of life by the water's edge. Thus, the cantilevered sun deck sits just
above the water level, dining in ones Villa is a panoramic dream, the luxurious
amenities are all thoughtfully placed in the drawer of the wooden desk, the Mini
Bar, personal Safe, and quadraphonic hi-fi are concealed with the television and
VCD in a hand built wooden cabinet.
Three jetties stretch out from the island and along each jetty you will find Soneva
Gili Villa Suites and Soneva Gili Residences. Each
Suite and Residence has been built and designed with the utmost attention to
detail to ensure the total comfort of guests.
The 29 Soneva Gili Villa Suites, 8 Soneva Gili
Residences and 7 Soneva Gili Crusoe Residences are
located in such a way that more than twenty meters separates one from the next,
affording each total privacy. A favourite pastime is to lie on the cantilevered
sun deck or the roof sun deck and just gaze off into the horizon or marvel at
the night sky.
The Seven Crusoe Residences stand side by side in the lagoon majestically
looking out beyond the coral reef to the open sea. Each has its own private
rowing boat for traveling between the residence and the jetty.
The Villas and the Residences are spacious with wooden floors. The Bathrooms
have been designed with a separate Shower accessed along an open-Air walkway,
along its own private water garden.
