Own Private Leisure Villa Plots for Sale Water has always been an important adjunct to buildings, intensifying their presence and impact. And the wider expanse of the ocean, in whatever climate, seems to inspire generosity and ingenuity in design and construction. Your own ‘seaside’ villa has many connotations, most of which involve an architectural component. From cabins and beach-huts at popular resorts or pavilions hidden among the tropical foliage of some tropical island, from new ‘natural’ hotel developments.

Project in a nutshell Guesthouse 2B is one of the social enterprises of a bigger conservation & development project in and around the Afadjato-Agumatsa Community Nature Reserve. The aim of the project is to create an alternative source of income for locals by using social enterprises related to ecotourism. It is "allowed" for the social enterprises (Bar & Restaurant 2B, Guesthouse 2B, rabbit breeding) to make profit but it is not the main objective. The main objective is to develop the local villages and to conserve the(ir) environment. The social enterprises are daily runned by locals, by hiring as much as possible locals the enterprises create job opportunities in the communities.
