The last house Geoffrey Bawa designed: a 5-bedroom seaside villa of 2 storeys, laid out in a horseshoe around a courtyard pool and opening straight onto a quiet 2 km beach.
Its rooms can be booked singly, like a small hotel, or the whole house taken for a family or group, fully staffed with a chef.
Inside, white walls and polished cement floors carry a mix of antique and modern furniture, with daybeds on pillared verandahs and doors painted in tropical colours.
