人々が愛する理由
- Only 10 villas means you practically own the island
- The food is consistently rated as Michelin-level good
- 100% solar-powered eco-luxury that doesn't feel rustic
クイックテイク: A stunningly secluded eco-lodge where the silence is only broken by the sound of the ocean and the occasional wailing curlew bird.
@eatdrinkandbekerry によるレビュー: I stayed here right after it opened and the seclusion is unreal. Waking up to that turquoise water right outside my glass doors was the highlight of my trip. The decor is so chic and calming—definitely grab a coffee and sit on that private swing. It's pure paradise.

Reality check
The pool isn't heated enough for winter dips, and the biting midges can ruin a sunset if you aren't prepared.
- You hate fighting for pool chairs (max 20 guests total)
- You are a foodie who wants tailored, chef-prepared meals
- You want to disconnect (limited cell service, no TVs in some descriptions, though recent upgrades mention them)

ルームジニー
おすすめ
- Oceanfront Villa with Private Plunge Pool (most secluded, worth the upgrade)

“We would love one of the more secluded Oceanfront Villas, ideally with the outdoor rain shower or plunge pool if available. We are celebrating a special occasion and value maximum privacy.”
