The bathrooms feature soaking tubs, patterned tiles, and a spa-like atmosphere. The common areas are stylish and inviting, enhanced by modern furnishings, sculptural art and contemporary chandeliers. Outdoors, shaded porticos, sun-drenched terraces and an infinity pool overlook manicured lawns, olive groves and flower-filled gardens.
