Accommodation includes ocean-view rooms, spacious suites, and luxury residences designed with contemporary coastal style. Each features light-filled interiors, en-suite bathrooms, and private balconies or terraces overlooking the turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean.

Dining is a highlight, with restaurants serving fresh seafood, international favorites, and Swahili-inspired dishes. Meals can be enjoyed at the oceanfront dining terrace, poolside, or in private settings, paired with a wide selection of wines and cocktails.
