What sets it apart
It is first of all a golf address. Two eighteen-hole championship courses stretch over one hundred and forty hectares: The Legend, par 72 over 6,018 metres, and The Links, par 71 over 5,942 metres. Green fees are free for hotel guests on both courses, with golf carts payable but not compulsory. Each course has its own clubhouse, with restaurant, bar, driving range, pro shop and equipment hire, and the Legend also houses a golf academy.
The mood
Buildings rise no higher than three floors and every room faces the Indian Ocean. The restaurants are spread across the estate rather than gathered together: two sit in the golf clubhouses, three have their feet in the sand, and one is set in a wine cellar. Four swimming pools, one heated in winter, and four floodlit tennis courts complete the picture.

- The diving centre, deep-sea fishing, parasailing and lessons are payable, unlike the non-motorised water sports.
