Notes on accommodation
Dunas Beach Resort has approximately 50 private S/C villas, and Melia Tortuga resort (the sister site) has facilities which can be used by villa guests.
Tortuga and of course, the beach, are less than five minutes walk away. The location is great for watersports, sunbathing, use of Melia's facilities (spa, massage rooms, bars, international restaurants, kids area, plus more besides )
Perhaps, like many, you simply wish to soak up some sun and relax on the villa's comfortable sun loungers, with a cool drink and a book. When the sun eventually dips, maybe indulge use of the upstairs terrace, and watch a vibrant sun-set over the sea? Become more relaxed, and take your time, with all the self contained facilities to hand, before perhaps visiting a restaurant and some local nightspots.
