Available exclusively to guests considering purchasing real estate at the swank marina village, the bungalows are set along the dunes, surrounded by palms and bougainvillea.

In between house-hunting excursions, guests in the bungalows can also enjoy the members-only Pavilion Beach Club on Sandy Bank Bay, where the waterfront pool and beach bar provide the perfect location to consider their purchase.
