FAQ
How far is the beach?
The local beach at Savaneta is just 90 seconds by car, I say car as I pack it with chairs, beach towels, cool boxes and beach equipment. (All at the villa for your use) Easier than carrying it! To get there turn right out of the villa, (before the road bends right towards the main road) turn left onto the sand ( just past the houses with the blue roofs) you can access the beach there via a jetty, the beach is down the path to the right.
