The Promenade is a flashy boutiquelike beachfront spot owned by the swish Hidesign group, with upscale, oriental-themed, (mostly) sea-facing rooms. If you're looking for modern and stylish, this is your hotel. The elegant rooftop restaurant serves good, pricey pan-Asian dishes and cocktails in a breezy, leafy, lantern-lit setting – you're forking out more for the location.
