The property

Circular architecture in the Fari cluster

The Ritz-Carlton occupies one island of the Fari cluster, and the architecture is the calling card — Kerry Hill Architects' villas are perfect circles of timber and glass, unlike anything else in the country. Guests share the Fari Marina Village with Patina next door, which adds bars, a bakery and boutiques to the usual one-island equation. Butlers — Aris Meeha — run each villa in the Ritz-Carlton manner.
