More Info: You'll end up spending much of your time outdoors, but that doesn't mean you'll find the interior of the villa lacking anything in the comfort or convenience departments. Inside you'll find a wonderful mix of natural finishes which provide a relaxing ambiance. Brazilian slate, limestone, and hardwood flooring add warmth and texture while the vaulted wood ceilings throughout the villa provide an open and airy feel. Beautiful french and louvered wood doors are used throughout the interior. The furnishings are a tasteful mix of wicker, mosaics, and solid teaks and mahogony. There are three bedrooms, each one with it's own ensuite bathroom. The master bedroom has a king size bed while the remaining bedrooms have a queen and two twin beds respectively. Each bedroom is separately air conditioned. The central, sunken living room area provides the ideal place to kick back and enjoy yourself in the evenings. Just because Ocean Palms is located on a Caribbean island doesn't mean your out of touch with the outside world, unless of course, you choose to be. A state of the art audio/video system is provided for your use including a 55" big screen TV serviced by a satellite system, providing hundreds of channels of selections. A DVD player and a selection of DVD's are also included and there's a selection of books which your welcome to make use of during your stay.
