Fantastic Adult-Only Getaway

immaculate rooms friendly staff dining options

The hotel rooms were immaculate and well kept. The staff was consistently great to our needs. I liked the variety of dining options available. The food was fresh and delicious, with options for everyone.

The Uber app seemed intentionally blocked by the hotel. This forced us to use the hotel taxi service. A round trip to the market cost significantly more than it would have with Uber.

Rooms

9/10

The rooms included comfortable beds and provided ample space. The air conditioning worked efficiently and kept the temperature comfortable. I noticed the bathroom had two separate sinks. A rainfall shower added a luxurious touch.

I found the heated pools to be a great feature, especially during the cooler evenings. The beach area was well-kept. I liked the spacious rooms and the bakery shop (the croissants were delicious!). The design of the place impressed me, especially the Red Sea view.

The cocktail selection at the bars was somewhat limited.
