Stepping into the foyer, you are greeted by an expansive lobby adorned with tasteful artwork and sleek, contemporary furnishings - a perfect balance of elegance and warmth. The atmosphere exudes tranquility, enhanced by the design's judicious use of marble and inviting color palettes. As you explore deeper, three exquisite restaurants await, complementing five vibrant bars; the culinary offerings are both diverse and delightful, promising a taste of local flavors. A highlight of the property is the Sparkling Spa, where indulgence takes center stage with an indoor heated pool, sauna, steam bath, and soothing therapeutic massages.
