Mangwana is a stunning 6-bedroom, 6-bathroom private villa perched on the hillside of Mt. Pleasant, located between Lower Bay and Friendship Bay. The brief given to British-based architect Jake Edgley, who trained with Sir Norman Foster, was to create something with a high "wow" factor that is very comfortable to live in with lots of natural ventilation, achieved with its award-winning architecture at this stunning location.

Outdoors

There are many ways to entertain oneself when visiting Mangwana. An outdoor area is set up for petanque (boules), or you can use the games room and TV room that feature table tennis, table football, a rowing machine and a massage table. A shaded terrace on the southwest side of the villa provides a perfect spot for barbecuing and dining outdoors. In addition, one can enjoy the walled garden area in the southeast, where visitors can lounge in the hammock while watching the pet tortoises. The grand infinity pool is the central feature of Mangwana, with all principal rooms leading directly off it. At 600 feet above the sea, visitors can enjoy 300 degrees of astounding views across Balliceaux, Battowia, Mustique and the Southern Grenadines Islands. The wooden sundeck, located at treetop level just below the pool, is ideal for enjoying these fantastic views.

Living

When arriving at Mangwana, you enter a mezzanine level that opens up to the spacious and well-equipped open-plan kitchen, dining and living area, all under a beautiful vaulted ceiling. From here, the impressive 16ft Brazilian hardwood doors frame the pool with a backdrop of magnificent views across the Grenadines.

Sleeping

The two towers on each poolside have five of the spacious and cool bedrooms. Two bedrooms boast king-sized beds, whilst the others have twin beds that can easily be made into king-sized doubles. Each bedroom has its private balcony, with views of the grand pool or the breathtaking scenery of the neighbouring islands. Four of these bedrooms are en-suite, with two opening up to the night skies so visitors can enjoy the Milky Way directly above while showering. The sixth bedroom in the separate guest wing, also en-suite and boasting two large balconies, is located separately to the southwest side of the villa. Mangwana has a comfortable guest wing rented separately for US$ 950 per week.
