 "Ten minutes from the airport and in the heart of the tourist center and harbor area, this complex sprawls with affordable, well-dressed accommodations and ample recreational facilities." Full review
 "Spectacular shore-side development, divided into two separate hotels: Pacific is designed with business needs to the fore, whereas Magellan goes for luxury." 
 "While not as ‘old-world Asia’ as the stunning Shangri La, Sutera caters to big spenders with a cache of five-star amenities orbiting the vaulted lobby." 
 "Tucked within a sprawling resort, this hotel offers a wealth of activities, beginning with sailing and golf."
