Description from owner
Description
This newly completed 4 bedroom eco property is located within the exclusive and private Machangulo Nature Reserve. The home is nestled in pristine dune forest looking out over a naturally protected Indian Ocean bay and has a contemporary design finished with natural textures. The property is made of of two buildings. The main 'hub' building has spectacular views throughout, includes two en-suite bedrooms, the kitchen and a lounge and dining area. The pool deck across the front of the building is the perfect place to take advantage of the amazing wind protection that the property enjoys. A walkway leading down towards the turtle nesting beach reveals the beach-house, nestled in the dune forest with two bedrooms and bathrooms, perfect for sleeping to the sound of the ocean.
The property has two full time staff to help with breakfast and handling cleaning, tidying and laundry and a night guard for peace of mind.
Low tide reveals a 60 meter long tidal pool towards the point that is ideal for calm water swimming, snorkelling and for children to paddle.

“Geboekt, betaald, maar geannuleerd”
Ik heb deze woning inderdaad geboekt. Ik heb ook betaald, maar vervolgens werd het eenzijdig geannuleerd. Echter het geld werd wel 21 dagen op mijn Creditcard geblokkeerd. Slechte service.
