The Architecture

Ultra-modern tropical villa architecture meets an ancient Silk-Road past

Expansive, breezy spaces to match a breathtaking 180 degree panorama

Furniture bearing the marks of traditional craft accenting the modern

Cozy nooks everywhere to sit, chat, reflect, read, sip wine, chill, restore

Seven flights of stairs, five bedrooms, one ‘cave’ suite

Eight Silk Road doors from Morocco in the west to Beijing in the east

Five gardens and a gentle waterfall running through ferns under the pool

Forested hills behind, coconut palms and an arcing bay below, then the sea

Roof inspired by granite rocks of the island’s hills and the boats of its sea

Copper gable end inspired by Silk Road trade

Limestone pool deck and traditional Italian terrazzo floors and bathrooms

Sloping over five floors on an outcrop of giant granite boulders

Take the stairs, take the elevator, climb the rocks, gaze the stars

Thai-Chinese style teak pavilions in the gardens and the library

Hammocks, sun-beds, wonderful mattresses, spacious arm chairs, swing seats

Make it you own. Renew. Create memories. Come back again.
