Suffused with the sort of deceptively simple sophistication that transforms what could be just another luxury hotel into something extraordinary, The Oberoi is laden with awards for everything from its bathrooms to The Oberoi Spa, its nirvana-like, world famous spa and massage centre.
There is nothing about this hotel that is not superb. The position on 600 metres of white sandy beach with a backdrop of blue green mountains is fabulous. The villas are out of this world, the service flawless and the cuisine inspired. Add to all that a sprinkling of romance, architectural brilliance and even swimming pools that have hardened journalists raving, it is easy to grasp why this exceptional hotel is so renowned.
Set in eight hectares of subtropical gardens, an array of private villas with swimming pools, garden view villas and luxury pavilions combine charming, rustic exteriors with interiors of the utmost comfort and style. Surrounded by ochre walled courtyard gardens, sumptuous villas reminiscent of Balinese temples have open-sided dining pavilions, slate swimming pools and beautiful little illuminated gardens visible only from the spectacular bathrooms. Surpassing even this degree of luxury, the two royal villas with private pool offer masses of space, stunning sea views and an atmosphere that is undeniably palatial. Dining in the flower decked, open-sided restaurant is a sublime experience; Creole, French and Indian cuisines are consummately executed while the bar, situated next to a French 18th century ruin which has been converted into a wine cellar, must be one of the most romantic spots in the world from which to admire the sinking sun.
For dedicated hedonists, The Oberoi Spa is the ideal place to lose oneself totally at the hands of expert therapists with a wide range of holistic treatments that include Ayurveda and aromatherapy. All the usual water sports are available including water-skiing, windsurfing, pedalos, kayaking, snorkelling, Hobie Cat sailing, deep-sea fishing and diving. There is also a superbly equipped gym for those who cannot live without a rowing machine or treadmill. Exotic and intimate, The Oberoi has a uniquely understated and charming style that is guaranteed to leave guests refreshed, rejuvenated and at one with the world.
