Royal Hideaway Corales Resort
This chic resort has something to please everyone. If you’re looking for child-free accommodation then Corales Beach is a sleek, all-suite, adults-only choice mixing modern sophistication with Michelin-star dining, a rooftop pool and a daily programme of fitness activities. While family-friendly Corales Suites boasts contemporary quarters with fully equipped kitchens and enormous ocean-view terraces.
The spacious suites of adults-only Corales Beach feature innovative styling, open-plan bathrooms with freestanding bathtubs, and floor-to-ceiling windows that fill each suite with arresting ocean views. Of the three restaurants that belong to the hotel (guests are also free to eat at adjoining Corales Suites), the standout options are two-Michelin-star El Rincon de Juan Carlos, whose seasonal tasting menu celebrates the best of local and international products, and Michelin-star San Ho, offering an imaginative fusion of Peruvian and Japanese flavours. Facilities include two pools, including one on the rooftop, a 24-hour gym and a pampering spa, while activities range from running club and body core to whale-watching and cocktail making.
Next to Corales Beach is its family friendly sibling Corales Suites, whose cavernous, three-storey lobby carved out of volcanic rock leaves you suitably slack-jawed from the moment you arrive. The wow-factor continues in the 114 suites. With one to three bedrooms, each is enormous and perfect for family living, with private kitchens and vast ocean-view terraces, some as large as tennis courts. Many have private heated pools as well as outdoor living areas, dining tables, electric sunshades and comfy chill-out beds. Al fresco Italian Michelin-star restaurant Il Bocconcino and contemporary poolside grill Starfish provide à la carte dining options, there’s plenty of space for lounging around the heated outdoor pools, and children are entertained at the separate kids and teens clubs.
