Understated luxury is at the core of interior design seen through the communal spaces, including six restaurants offering an array of cuisines

Tasca is serving up Portuguese cuisine from a two Michelin-star chef Jose Avillez, and at Netsu you can indulge in Japanese grill. There’s also a brasserie called The Bay, Noor lounge for a casual meeting spot, Sun Vibe by the pool perfectly located for sundowners and – the one we are most excited about – the Mandarin Cake Shop. Don’t worry, you can work off the pastries at their gym.
