Ocean Melody 4: Private pool,WIFI,walk to Beaches
Ocean Melody 4 was born together her twin villa #3 (but as indipendent homes) to allow more travellers to enjoy the Ocean Melody experience. Like the older #1 and #2, it joins the typical tropical touch to all the comforts you need in your ideal beach vacation. Created on a smaller property than #1 and 2, the space has been optimized to make it more comfortable: larger rooms and sofa bed, back fresh jungle terrace, stronger wifi. And better price, as everybody deserves a perfect tropical time!!!
