What our guests says about facilities

The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Great Dining Experiences

During my recent stay, I truly enjoyed the variety of dining options available. I highly recommend the a la carte restaurants, especially the oriental one. The atmosphere was cozy, and the food was delicious compared to the main restaurant. I was pleasantly surprised that dinner at these restaurants didn’t involve long queues. I felt pampered with really good service and flavorful food that made each meal nice.

Relaxing Spa Treatments

I had an lovely experience at the spa during my stay. The massage I received was just divine! The therapist had golden hands, and it felt rejuvenating, especially after a long day of activities. They offer various treatments, and it was the perfect way to unwind while enjoying the luxurious surroundings of the resort. If you’re looking to relax, the spa is definitely a must-visit!

Comfortable Room Amenities

I stayed in a room with a stunning sea view, which was my highlight. The room was cleaned daily, and while the decor was a bit dated, it was well-maintained and quite comfortable. The flat-screen TV and functional air conditioning added to the enjoyable stay. Every morning I woke up to the sound of the waves, which was heavenly. The clean linens and fresh towels made my stay very comfortable.

Family-Friendly Facilities

As a traveling family, we were thrilled to find many amenities for our children. The spacious pools and the beach area were perfect for our kids to play safely. We also loved the organized activities for children, which kept them entertained while we enjoyed some relaxation time. The kid-friendly menu options at the restaurants were a huge bonus, ensuring that even the pickiest eaters found something they loved.

Overall, I had a wonderful time at this hotel. The location is stunning, right on the coral reef which makes for exceptional snorkeling. The staff was genuinely attentive and ensured my comfort throughout the stay. However, the food left a lot to be desired, mostly repetitive and lacking variety. While the rooms were clean, they could definitely use some renovations. Despite these shortcomings, the positive aspects of my experience made it worthwhile.

I had a frustrating experience at this resort. The room I initially received was dated and far from the luxury I expected, with issues like broken lamps and a fridge that had seen better days.

However, the dining offered repetitive food options that could use improvement.

6.8/10

I left the hotel feeling quite conflicted. On one hand, the beach area was stunning and the resort staff, particularly Saied, Mustafa, and Ahmed, provided an amazing level of service. On the other hand, the main restaurant was a chaotic experience with overcrowded seating and subpar food, leading to an unpleasant dining experience. While I enjoyed the beautiful beach and friendly service, I would hesitate to recommend this hotel mainly due to the dining issues.

I had a lovely sea view during my stay, and a big shoutout to Raghab, who really took care of our cleaning needs. However, the food left a lot to be desired with limited variety and taste, and I wasn't impressed with the room's outdated appearance and maintenance issues. Overall, the service was good thanks to a few dedicated staff members, but the dining experience wasn't great.

6.6/10

While the hotel has some redeeming features such as a beautiful view and a decent dining experience, the overall impression is marred by the staff's aggressive sales tactics and the subpar room conditions. I found myself longing for a more relaxing holiday rather than feeling overwhelmed and pressured. It's a mixed bag, really - great location and some friendly staff, but overall, not quite the getaway I was hoping for.

The pool and beach facilities are nice but can get crowded and loud due to the constant marketing from staff.
