Choose from tropical fruits, buttery pastries, crafted sushi rolls and more made at the property. The Floating Delight experience can be booked by calling or messaging the island butler. The Private Lagoon Breakfast sets the scene for a peaceful morning seaside with a sumptuous breakfast in the villa’s private garden or by the water.
