• Family Wing - Privacy and Peace
The remaining three double bedrooms are located in their own dedicated wing, separate from the living areas for maximum privacy. Each room opens onto its own balcony, surrounded by lush greenery and birdsong - peaceful, serene, and ideal for growing families or guests.
This wing also includes a stylish family bathroom with a tiled finish and warm timber vanity, and a generous, exceptionally well-designed laundry.
