On the site of a Victorian-era shipyard, this grand CGH creation faithfully reproduces 16th-, 17th- and 18th-century Dutch, British and Portuguese architecture for an updated heritage look. Most rooms gaze out over the harbour, and have bathtubs and balconies with refreshing sea breezes. There are three excellent restaurants, complimentary yoga and bicycles, and a waterfront pool shaded by tangles of bougainvillea.
Solar power and rainwater harvesting are some of the property's eco initiatives. Rates drop by 50% outside high season.
