If these villas seem a little large for a group of four or fewer people, that's because the villas have a unique “flexivilla” design that allows guests to customize the size of their room from the full villa to a one bedroom suite for four people to a simple hotel-style second bedroom for two. The doors that divide up the villa have double locks and ensure privacy for guests.
