The new hotel is set in Makham Bay on Cape Panwa peninsular overlooking a small cove with wooded headlands and two nearby historic islands. It maximizes its beachfront location with bars, restaurants swimming pools and activities and the resort’s decor draws inspiration from the Sino-Portuguese heritage of the region.
