Presidential Villa (288m²)
Diva’s Presidential Villa is the height of luxury in these exceptionally beautiful settings. Attention to detail is clear as soon as one steps into the villa, a refinement which contributes to a distinctive elegance in this grandiose setting. The glass floor in the centre of the lounge area is like a life size aquarium, provides a fantastic marine show, an exceptional viewpoint for your guests. The stage is set… the fantastic aquatic ballet can begin: at your feet there are thousands of multi-coloured fish such as yellow back fusiliers, sergeant major damselfish and other exotic species. This is natural beauty at its best... reflected in the fabrics and their regular pattern, just as the waves, as well as in the turquoise blue and orange hues. Relax in the lounge and admire the aquatic show or enjoy the serenity and luxury of the sumptuous terrace; a splendid combination of luxury wood decking and chequered granite slabs laid on the water. The infinity plunge pool merges with the lagoon and ocean… the horizon has disappeared…
