Perched on a mountaintop like an eagle's aerie, Sala Dhawan
overlooks a majestic panorama of sea and sky. The
semi-enclosed living area is shielded from the
elements, yet is sufficiently open to let you fully
appreciate them. |
Sala Dhawan’s
cosy bedroom on the ground floor is a nice contrast
to the
open living area above – and both look out
over the lush garden. |
|
|
With a double bed downstairs
and a double bed in the loft, Sala Dhawan can
sleep four people comfortably. However, despite its
size, this villa is a
cozy private hideaway for a couple.
|
| On
a clear day you can see the mainland from the deckchair
atop the huge boulder which fronts Sala Dhawan. |
|
|
| A two-storey
wooden home with sleeping loft, Sala Dhawan is one of the largest villas at
Tamarind Retreat. | |
|
Sala Dhawan has
two bathrooms, with a cold-water shower downstairs,
as well as a hot-water shower in the
upstairs open-air bathroom.
Built into the cool granite, the cozy
downstairs sleeping area has its own bathroom and shower.
The angular windows looking out onto the surrounding
private garden ensure a constant flow of cool breezes.
|
| The
downstairs bedroom is built into the rocks that
surround the house. |
|
Sala Dhawan's private entrance gate
is accessible by car or motorbike.
On one side of the expansive upstairs living area is a large
outdoor bathroom. The sleeping loft above the living
room is a favourite with children, as is the lovely
garden.
Note: Because of its unprotected decks and
steep stairs, Sala Dhawan may not be suitable for toddlers
or very young children.
