Dictated by the amazing views, Villa Paradisa, has been designed to offer the best vistas and appreciation from every conceivable aspect.
The architecture compliments the coastal lifestyle with an emphasis on outdoor living and relaxation.
The finishes were inspired by the environment, from the colours of sand and sea, and textures of the natural sandstone, marble, travertine, porcelain and wood, to the wave design of the sea green balustrades.
