Further vitality is achieved with the balconies, which are ‘U’ shaped pre-cast concrete shells, tacked on to the face of the room blocks with variation in their depth and the height of their side walls.

This simplicity comes through in the landscaping where beds of standing grasses, individual date palms and vertical green walls soften the architecture and provide colour and privacy.

Although there are 176 keys in total, the abundance of decks, terraces, cabanas and balconies ensures the ambience is intimate and friendly.
