Immaculate and unexpectedly creative, with comfortable, condo-like villas set around a figure-eight pool in grassy grounds, Radhika is just steps from Nagoa Beach. The cool rooms have silver and lime-green colour schemes, and desks, bedheads and wardrobes made out of the polished heads of coconuts.
