"An infinity pool pours over the edge of the property, forming a waterfall below. A sandy pathway just beyond leads down to a beach and surf break on the Pacific Ocean."

"The villas are...best shared with your family or a group of friends. Each experience can be catered to the individual stay with amenities available such as... private chefs, massages and even private swim instructors for those...traveling with kids."
