The Andaman Penthouse is a collaboration between founder Mark Weingard and Iniala's Chief Design Director, British-born Graham Lamb. It is futuristic, innovative, surreal and sensual. The Penthouse concept is that of a holistic environment, upon entering the room, guests take off their shoes as if they were entering a desert-scape. The floor melts beneath their feet like sand. The bed is suspended from the ceiling, while the bathing area is sunken like an oasis in the Sahara.
This stunning Penthouse offers exquisite views out to the Andaman Sea and overlooks the shimmering rooftops of Iniala. The wonderful 250 square metre terrace is the perfect place for enjoying the sun or dining under the stars. The oversized swimming pool protrudes into the villa itself making this a real fusion of indoor and outdoor living. From this height, at sunset, you'll be afforded the wonderful silhouette of the "Fishtail' sculpture diving through the villa's pool below, truly spectacular.
