Tucked away down a quiet side road, this complex consists of 10 stylish self-contained apartments, some with front-row views of the spectacular sprawl of Avana Lagoon. There's a swimming pool if the ocean waters don't appeal – unlikely on most days – and a private jetty for island kayaking trips or fishing expeditions. There's a five-night minimum stay.
