On the far northern end of Sairee Beach, this is one of the few boutique resorts on the island. Choose between the circular, thatch-roofed White Sand Villas or the more traditional cottages. The Mediterranean-style villas have tile and wood floors, four-poster beds, chill-out nooks, and panoramic windows. The wooden cottages, which are farther up the hill away from the beach, have bamboo-frame beds, native art, and decks that face south towards Sairee Beach. Rooms on the hill have stairs leading down to a snorkeling spot. The stylish restaurant, just above the water, is open for dinner. Pros: attractive decor; stylish resort. Cons: so-so food; some rooms lack easy beach access.
