Oriental Resort

Occupying an expansive plot of land bordering the beachfront, many of the facilities and much of the accommodation is located into the top half closest to the reception building while attractively landscaped gardens weave their way towards the broad stretch of fully serviced beach. Offering a choice of board basis and with a variety of dining outlets, this property is suited both to family parties and adults.

Exterior

A large double arched gate house within the boundary walls marks the entrance from the main road and opens up onto attractive park like gardens with neat lawns and palm trees. The circular driveway encompasses neat shrubberies and sets down beneath a open framed circular portico in front of the few broad steps leading up to the glass front entrance.

Property type: Hotel

Interior

Doors open onto an expansive brightly lit lobby located at the pivotal point in the U-shaped property. Highly polished light-coloured marble effect floors and neutral-coloured walls are topped by a glass pyramid roof shrouded in net like curtains.

Clusters of wooden framed armchairs by the long wooden fronted reception counter but otherwise the furnishings are sparse. At the rear it opens up into a double height atrium with the lower-level reached by a broad sweeping stairway. This is the main restaurant courtyard where tables spill out across the white marble flooring creating a piazza style enhanced by the floor-to-ceiling windows up to which the main swimming pool extends.

Rooms: 274

Grounds

3-storey wings of accommodation surround the neatly lawned gardens and feature rooms with terraces or balconies facing mainly inward. The swimming pool is the main focal point with a wide brick cobbled terrace surrounded furnished with mattressed, wooden framed sunloungers and palm frond parasols.

A large bar area with bistro style seating spreading across the terrace from which a stairway leads up to the viewing area where the remainder of the attractive grounds can be observed. These comprise the large pond surrounded by flower beds and a lagoon style water feature continuing through the grounds past single-storey blocks of accommodation to the wide sandy beach. Here there is a further bar and lines of parasols and sunloungers.
