"The northernmost of Germany’s islands, Sylt is best known for its vast, sandy beaches. But one of its major attractions lies on the mainland-facing side. Budersand is home to an award-winning 18-hole links course, built in the Scottish style along the coast — and it’s also home to an impressively luxurious hotel. The crisp, contemporary rooms make the most of the sun and the sea views; all of them come with balconies facing either the golf course or the sea. An impressive spa is just as much a matter of course as several upscale restaurants, including the Michelin-starred restaurant KAI3 and a first-class bar." - Tablet Hotels
