    signature outdoor pool
    4-course menu
    rushed check-in process

    We loved lounging by the stunning 1,600 m2 signature outdoor pool and enjoying the adults-only pool for a more peaceful vibe. The 4-course menu was delicious and showcased some amazing flavors. Staff was super friendly and accommodating, making our stay memorable.

    The only downside was that the check-in process felt a bit rushed, which left us a little anxious initially. A bit more attention here would go a long way for first impressions.

    delicious breakfast
    amazing pool
    serene spa
    declining village

    The stay was fantastic, especially enjoying the delicious breakfast spread and relaxing by the amazing pool. There are plenty of wellness options, including a serene spa lounge and refreshing steam room. Just a heads up, the Venetian village nearby isn’t what it used to be, but the overall experience was still top-notch! 😊

    great experience but room lacked some amenities

    The breakfast selection featured impressive and diverse delicacies that truly enhanced our mornings. The staff provided exceptional service and contributed to a wonderful atmosphere throughout our stay.

    outstanding service

    Perfect for couples seeking luxury

    Had an amazing time at this fantastic hotel, truly. The service was phenomenal, especially with the staff throwing a surprise romantic dinner for us in the Lebanese restaurant, made our time way more special. Also, the pool area was just breathtaking and so relaxing, perfect for unwinding after a long day.

    It wasn’t inexpensive but honestly worth every penny for the experience.

    spacious room
    comfortable beds
    great amenities
    dated furnishings
    only one chair

    The room was spacious and elegant, with comfortable beds and great amenities. The view of the pool was nice, and the bathrooms were clean and well-equipped. Just a couple of minor things. the furnishings looked a bit dated and the balcony only had one chair. But overall, it was a pleasant stay!

    cleanliness issues

    No entertainment options exist for teenagers, and the absence of a shuttle to the nearby mosque is a noticeable gap. The villas suffer from cleanliness issues, with dirty pools and insects. While the rooms are decent, they fall short of the exceptional experience one expects from this brand, especially considering the need to book multiple rooms for a family of four. Dining can quickly become expensive when traveling with kids, as their meals aren't adequately priced for their smaller appetites.
