A sprawling gulfside retreat created with admirable care and a no-expense-spared philosophy evident in the spacious accommodations – Premier Rooms extend to 70 square metres – as well as the decorative details, such as Murano glass fixtures, wood-panelled walk-in closets, intricate tile mosaics and copious marble. Notable highlights include the Pearl Spa and panoramic Sea Fu restaurant – plating modern seafood fare in an open, breezy lounge space – plus go-to rooftop night spot the Mercury Lounge, pouring champagne, cocktails and sophisticated light bites in a cosy, open-air club lounge atmosphere.
