What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Rooms are large by local standards, all with balconies and a design that mixes soft curves, graphic details, and just enough color to lift the neutrals.
Somewhere quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Station 1 keeps a quieter pace than the southern beaches, with Willy's Rock an easy stroll along the sand.
The rooms
Every room opens onto a private balcony, finished in muted tones with curved furniture and sculptural lighting.
The pools
Bring a swimsuit.
The courtyard pool complex includes a lap lane and outdoor jacuzzi, and the upper infinity pool looks straight out to sea.
The spa
Treatment suites operated with The Spa Wellness include soaking tubs for signature therapies and restorative massages.
At the table
Crust bakes pizzas in a beachside woodfired oven, and open-air Tartine catches sea breezes across the morning buffet.
How it began

The resort takes its name from co-founder Linda Tan, who built the property with her husband Alex in 2015.

The eight vibes

Built around a vision. Even the door handles have a designer.

Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.
Local
It could only be here. You wake up knowing where you are.
Social
Where the city goes out. The bar is full and the night is young.
Heritage
A building with a story. Once a palace, a monastery, a station.
Wellness
You leave feeling new. Rest, sweat, soak and sleep like a stone.
Classic
The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.
Resort
A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene
Lively
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Central
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Secluded
A place apart: the property is the destination.
