The Punta de Mar is an exclusive destination for water-lovers and holidaymakers who want to experience the most luxurious design and technology when on vacation. Spanning 74 m² over two floors, guests can appreciate the vast ocean view within their own private oasis that is guaranteed to engage the senses and offer superior wellbeing. The living quarters are protected by a vertical, slatted wall that allows light to pass through but still achieve the right amount of privacy.

The cabin and bathroom located on the ground floor are designed with a structural terrace that is open to the elements and offers an uninhibited view of the Mediterranean Sea: also available from the comfort of bed too! There’s an access ladder to the chill-out deck featured on the upper level and the interior décor is inspired by minimalism where the architects, Mano de Santo, ensured that all design elements including the soft furnishings are using 100% eco-friendly, sustainable materials.

Holidaymakers can spend the night at sea, or moor up at a marina or private beach. Discover more information or hire the Punta de Mar via the team at KM Zero at:
