THE EATING

The included breakfast is served in the Azure restaurant, which also does fine-dining lunch and dinner, and has ocean views and a menu that makes local, sustainable seafood the star.

The Café Grill, on the mountain side, has a more casual, family-orientated air and prides itself on its sushi.

The Leopard Bar, also on the sea side, is unsurprisingly popular for sundowners and also offers an afternoon high tea. It’s worth noting that none of these options is exclusive to hotel residents, and competition is stiff at the Leopard Bar, especially as sunset looms. People-watchers may enjoy this unexpected perk: a near-constant parade of patrons puckering up for their phone cameras.
