Stuff You Should Know

Beach devotees, brace yourselves – you're 30 minutes from the nearest sand, and during rainy season, that journey includes impromptu river crossings (4x4 recommended, swimming skills optional). While the design credentials are impeccable, entertainment options lean minimalist: think complementary bikes for those who fancy pedaling in style and an observation deck that turns sunset-watching into an art form. The restaurant plays captive audience with your taste buds, but thankfully does so with reasonable skill (7.5/10, which in remote hotel terms is practically Michelin-starred).

Food and drink

Food + Drink On-site surprises

When isolation meets culinary ambition

The restaurant, wrapped elegantly around one of the property's pools, serves as your primary dining venue – less by choice, more by geographic necessity. Breakfast comes included (because hiking down a hill in search of coffee would be cruel), and dinner proves surprisingly sophisticated for a place where your dining alternatives require a substantial commute. The swim-up bar Instagram-ready. Between the poolside dining and the observation deck's sunset drinks service, you might forget you're not actually at the beach – which seems to be entirely the point.
