Parisian designer Christian Liaigre, who The Financial Times called “the most influential and copied designer of our time,” designed the trio of Le Sereno villas, each with more than 7,500 square feet of indoor and outdoor space.

Le Sereno Villas offers a high degree of privacy while at the same time allowing access to all of the hotel’s five-star amenities concierge, maintenance, landscaping, and a beach club, which includes a beachfront freshwater pool and gourmet restaurant.
