With seamless access to the harbourside promenade, the five-star hotel offers a relaxing stay for tourists and residents alike.
As we arrived, we were welcomed with an abundance of natural light through the floor-to-ceiling windows, green-themed interiors, and a delightful aroma of freshly brewed coffees from The Patisserie, located opposite the reception. Guests in search of their choice of beverages prior to checking in are encouraged to make a pit stop at the dining venue for a refreshing start. Our check-in was quick and we were promptly accompanied to our luxurious suite.

CULINARY OFFERINGS
We chose to dine indoors for lunch at the elegant fine dining venue, The Restaurant. We started with the tantalizing Burrata featuring a creamy burrata ball accompanied by heirloom tomato, fresh basil pesto, and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. The Prawn chermoula showcases perfectly cooked Sicilian prawn parched atop Moroccan chermoula sauce for a sumptuous blend of spices. To refresh our palates, we treated ourselves to the Passion sour, a stunning blend of tangy passion fruit, zesty lemon juice, sweet sugar syrup, and sparkling tonic water, garnished with a frothy egg white; and The destination of blue, a tropical delight featuring mango, banana, blue curacao, and fresh mint leaves.
For mains, we delighted in a unique, sweet rendition of Ramen – spaghetti expertly tossed in a soy chilli vinaigrette and served with tender Angus Beef Tenderloin slices, savoury mushrooms, and caviar. Our favourite dish, the Roasted corn-fed chicken supreme was perfectly tender and topped with creamy polenta, mushrooms, cipollini onions, and a tantalizing tarragon chicken jus.
To round off our dining experience, we indulged in two irresistible desserts – the classic Tiramisu and the Raspberry chocolate cake with chocolate ganache and tangy raspberry compote.
After a quick dip at the infinity pool, we made our way for dinner at the poolside Luma Pool Lounge to enjoy marvellous waterfront views. Our culinary journey began with Crispy calamari with a creamy side of saffron aioli and Pizza bresaola adorned with mozzarella, chilli flakes, goat cheese, and fresh rocket leaves. We then savoured the exquisite Risotto al tartufo, where the creamy risotto was elevated by sautéed wild mushrooms, black truffle, and grated aged Parmesan, resulting in a dish brimming with earthy and aromatic flavours. The Chicken Shawarma was another classic featuring Arabic spiced marinated chicken, gherkins, garlic aioli, and lettuce wrapped within soft saj bread and paired with french fries.
Lastly, the standout Arabic mix grill presented an impressive assortment of lamb kofta, lamb chops, shish tawook, shish kebab, makanik, accompanied by garlic sauce, hummus, and biwas salad. To conclude, we indulged in Crème brulée with vanilla biscuit, strawberries, and blueberries. We woke up late the next day but just in time for breakfast at The Restaurant, featuring a buffet, live stations for pancakes and waffles, and an à la carte menu.
We ordered Omelette with cheese and vegetables served with potato hash, beef sausages, sauteed mushrooms, and bacon; and Vegetable dumplings with chilli garlic sauce. We then made our way to the buffet and tucked into freshly-baked Apple Danish, Custard doughnut, and Chocolate twist. To accompany the delightful pastries, we opted for a refreshing strawberry and dates smoothie.
