“La Quinta” is a newly completed,
fully air-conditioned, contemporary four bedroom villa
with its own swimming pool. The house is built on Saipem Hill within
a small exclusive gated estate. Saipem is only 10 minutes drive
from the beaches of Candolim and Sinquerim but
it is a world away from the daily hustle and bustle of the tourist
belt.
A private lane winds through the estate past the ten highly individually
designed villas standing in their own gardens to the top of the
hill where there are magnificient views of the Nerul river meandering
slowly towards the sea past small islands;a haven for birds and
wildlife.
To take advantage of its hillside position, La Quinta
has been built on three levels with the aim of maximising space
and light.
The garden level consists of a large double bedroom with a separate
dressing area and French doors onto a balcony with views of the
garden. The ground level has an open plan dining and living area.
This lovely room has French doors on both sides: on the left they
open onto a large covered terrace and steps to the garden and on
the right they lead straight onto the swimming pool terrace. There
are two bedrooms on this floor with the twin-bedded room also opening
onto the swimming pool terrace.
The first level consists of another spacious double bedroom. This
has a walk-in dressing room and French doors onto a balcony looking
onto the garden
Use of natural flooring materials gives the house a warm feel.
The furniture and fittings are of the highest standards combining
style and comfort and great thought has been put into the color
schemes. The bathrooms are particularly well planned and use the
latest designs and fixtures. This is a superior villa and the cliché
of “no expense spared” is absolutely true.
La Quinta is built according to the traditional
architectural principles of “Vastu”.
These dictate that “a building should be constructed in such
a way as to conform to the subtle laws of nature operating in the
area. The whole site should be oriented to the east and the rising
sun, while its component buildings are all placed in correct relation
to each other, the four directions and the site as a whole”.
Anyone staying in a house which adheres to these principles will
be “blessed by the hidden lords of the land, and the sense
of enjoyment and well-being will be greatly enhanced”. This
was the intention of the Owners and it is our hope for all our guests
who stay at La Quinta. |
