Alila - Sandy Lane, St. James

Alila incorporates the best of Barbadian and Balinese design elements, with open plan living spaces and extensive use of hardwoods to give a natural, organic feel. The instant reaction of most guests is that "the pictures don't do it justice".

The villa entrance leads to a bridge over an oriental Koi pond set within an enclosed garden courtyard. The lounge and dining area (which easily seats 10) are open to the cooling breezes, the garden courtyard and the pool area. There is also an adjoining media room where you can relax with a little music, a movie or cable tv.

Alila provides four large bedrooms each of which has an en suite bathroom, air conditioning and ceiling fan. Three of the bedrooms are found on the lower level of the property and open either to the pool area or the garden courtyard.

The master suite, which encompasses the whole upper level, is pure indulgence with an oversized double bathroom containing a lavish walk-in shower that leads out onto the private patio containing an amazing outdoor tub. The private patio overlooks the pool area and gazebo, with a gully running along the north side and views of the coast to the west.

For the truly outdoor dining experience there is a stunning raised gazebo that is reached by a wooden bridge over the 54' infinity pool.

The property was built in 2009 and is equipped with the most modern appliances and up-to-date technology including the fully equipped large kitchen with granite surfaces, iPod docks in each bedroom and modern security features.

With the open plan design and modern fittings, beautifully landscaped gardens, infinity pool and raised gazebo this property is a truly stunning tropical paradise. Alila also has its own private cabana at the Sandy Lane beach.
