Pine Villa was renovated and extended so that it can accommodate 2 families or a group of friends in real comfort. Its cul-de-sac location means it is safe and quiet but also ideally placed for venturing to the beach and into the forest. With both large dining room and lounge as well as 2 terraces it never feels cramped even when fully occupied.
