“The architecture, crafted by a Thai architect, certainly carves a striking figure against the Bel Ombre coastline. It seeks to be a haven for wellness, with sustainable features and integrating nature, but one unfortunate experience casts doubt on consistent service and upkeep. The ambition is there, with private gardens and curated spa treatments, but a sharper focus on basic hospitality might be warranted.”
