Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were under refurbishment, which made them a bit moldy and damp, but they were packed with facilities, and I could access the beach at a neighboring property. The view of the pool and sea from my room was mesmerizing. The service was top-notch with friendly and helpful staff willing to go the extra mile. The location, although hit by a storm during my visit, was amazing with vast garden areas that could use some more furniture. However, the main facilities were a bit of a distance at the Danat Resort. The dining experience was lacking, especially since my last stay, with not-so-impressive grilled dishes. Overall, the facilities were decent, but improvements could be made.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. I loved being able to use the beach and facilities of the neighboring resort, but the cleanliness of the rooms left much to be desired. The newly renovated room was comfortable with a lovely bed and fast Wi-Fi, but the presence of ants near the work desk was unsettling. The staff, unfortunately, lacked courtesy with no warm greeting upon arrival.

The hotel provides very clean and comfortable rooms, but there are differences between deluxe and standard rooms. The rooms can feel strangely humid even with the AC running all day.
The hotel offers a mix of pros and cons. While the rooms seemed a little damp and had a strange smell, they were fully equipped under refurbishment, with access to beach facilities at the neighboring property.

The dining experience had room for improvement with cold food and limited variety.
My stay at the hotel was a delightful surprise! The rooms, though not large, were nice and equipped with all amenities, exceeding our expectations.
