Welcome to Maneri Villa - 1st (ground) Floor Apartment
Maneri Villa is a charming part of the 3-villa Hacienda Cresta Complex. The building is easily identified by its distinctive green roof. Nestled on a developing 18-acre coconut and fruit plantation, this tranquil retreat combines nature and comfort, making it an ideal escape for families and friends.
Villa Design
Maneri Villa is a single house that can be conveniently split into upstairs and downstairs independent apartments. These can be easily joined together into one spacious home through an internal staircase, making it ideal for larger groups or families seeking both privacy and connection. Additionally, there is a separate external staircase providing independent access to the second floor, offering flexibility and privacy for guests.
The First floor apartment has two bedrooms: one with a king sized bed and ensuite, and another with two double beds. An additional bathroom, a cozy living room, and a separate kitchen.
The First floor features direct access to the garden and swimming pool, offering the perfect setting for enjoying breakfast in the morning and sunsets in the evening.
Prime Location
Just a 5-minute walk from the local fisherman beach, the villa offers stunning sunset views over the Indian Ocean. The villa is surrounded by lush greenery on the expansive 18-acre developing fruit farm, complete with cattle, chickens, goats, a small spice garden, a vegetable patch, friendly cats and 5 watch dogs (the dogs are not free roaming). A picturesque stream runs adjacent to the complex, enhancing peaceful atmosphere.
Swimming Pool
Relax and unwind in the 8x4m attached swimming pool, which lights up beautifully at night. Perfect for family fun and soaking up the sun. This secluded pool is exclusively available to guests of Maneri Villa only. Poolside amenities include an outdoor shower, a couple swing, hammock, coffee tables, and sun loungers.
