Designed to resemble a 19th-century academic institution, the resort integrates thematic elements into its architecture, services, and guest experiences.
Unlike conventional beach resorts, the property is developed as a narrative space, where each building and activity reflects a “department” of the imagined Lamarck University. This approach creates a distinctive setting that combines leisure with a structured design concept.

The resort’s villa collection is designed for privacy and personalized service. Each villa features themed interiors, private gardens, and swimming pools, along with butler service and airport transfers.
At the top tier, Lamarck House is a seven-bedroom beachfront estate with panoramic ocean views, a private infinity pool, and large living spaces suitable for private events or group stays.
Guests staying in villas can opt for the “Villa Voyage” package, which includes additional services such as a floating breakfast served in the private pool.
