All of the rooms have natural elements, handmade furnishings and are extremely unique from a layout perspective. Technology is certainly not the main focus here, as TVs are cleverly tucked away inside suitcase-looking coffee tables and light switches are a combination of old-school switches and colorful knobs and oddities. While it takes an excruciatingly long time to find all the lights at the end of the night, the style of the knobs and “homemade” switches is a very Soneva thing to do. While we feel it would be a better guest experience to modernize and make things a bit more consistent, it’s also part of the “charm”.
The bath amenities are all-natural and very nice. They are available in refillable containers, which is not something I love unless they refill them and sanitize them between guest stays. Some of our rooms did have half empty bottles, while others were full. Regardless, they offered after-sun lotion, reef safe sunscreen, mosquito spray, shampoo, conditioner and body wash.
On our last night, we were able to try the Two Bedroom Water Retreat with a slide and that was our all time favorite. If you can swing it, book the water retreat, whether it’s the one bedroom or two bedroom. These are the newest rooms on property and no expense was spared here. They feature stunning views, dozens of glass floor-to-ceiling windows and massive pools. Our two bedroom has a cinema room, a living and dining room, kitchen, two bedrooms and enough outdoor space for a party. There is even a secret upstairs lounge area for tanning and relaxing. There are glass bottom floors across the villa and our absolute favorite feature is the ceiling in the primary bedroom that opens up to the sky. Of course, they decided to keep the frustratingly unique light switches and knobs with no master switch, but overall, this category is why you come to Soneva.
