Mandarin Oriental Takamatsu in the works

Very strange choice for their second property in Japan. For leisure travelers, it might make sense if you love Sanuki Udon and want your fill of the delectable noodles that are prominent (and widely considered Japan's best) in the area.

It could also serve as a good starting point to explore some of the islands dotting the Seto Inland Sea, with a 30 minute boat ride taking you to Naoshima Island, about the same time it takes to get to Teshima Island. And a one hour ferry can get you to Shodoshima Island. Finally, Kurashiki is about an hour's drive away.
