Villa Pwani stands between Villa Palm and Villa Maroc, in the middle of Kikadini's plot beside the ocean, and is the only one of the villas to be single-storey … although it does have a spectacular roof terrace.

The villa is built around a courtyard, surrounded by cloisters. Decorated with large original paintings of this island, the owners' fascination for Arabic design shines through in the architecture and furnishings here – from curving Arabic arches, to authentic lamps, Persian-style rugs and appropriate furniture.

Villa Pwani has two double beachfront rooms, each of which has a huge king-size double bed with a ceiling fan directly over it, cushioned chairs and stylish furniture.

The en-suite bathrooms all feel very solid and cool – complete with a large moulded stone shower, a sparkling brass sink and a modern flush toilet. Wide double French-doors lead out from each room onto a large private balcony with sun-loungers, directly overlooking the ocean. It's probably 35m to the ocean at high tide.

The second floor of Villa Pwani consists of a roof-top terrace, with shaded dining space, a lounge area and an open-air bath.
