Patina

Patina is both a beacon of sustainability and a supremely luxurious resort, where solar panels and eco-friendly architecture go hand-in-hand with private pools, stylish boutiques and designer furniture. While the low-lying design creates a sense of space, this is a larger resort with the amenities to suit, including thirteen restaurants, bars, cafes and food trucks that offer everything from Lebanese to gelato, Japanese/Peruvian fusion to Patagonian grilled meats. Life here can be as active or sedate as you wish, with snorkels, kayaks, bikes and paddleboards, and a supremely well-equipped dive centre. Or simply grab a book and head to a daybed on the white sands, with the occasional dip in the diamond waters for good measure.

The 90 one- to three-bedroom Beach and Water Pool Villas and 20 Fari Studios echo the sustainability ethos with chic, minimalist design, and natural materials. Thoughtfully situated to enjoy either the beach or the ocean, the Villas all boast a private pool and outside space for taking in the staggering sunrise or sunset views. The 20 Studios are set within the central Marina Village so ideal for those who want to be closer to the restaurants, shops and art installations of the island.
