What our guests says about facilities

The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Delicious Food Experience

We had an really good dining experience at the resort, especially at the Lebanese restaurant. The views were stunning, and the meal was simply great. The staff went above and beyond, and I have to commend the open kitchen team for their excellent service. The liver starter was a highlight for both the kids and us. We left feeling well-fed and happy.

Amazing Kids Club

During our family vacation, the Kids Club was a true gem! The warm welcome and caring nature of the staff made my children feel right at home. They were entertained by Maria, Melanie, and Bellah, who kept the kids engaged and happy, making our stay nice and giving us some relaxation time.

Stunning Room Views

I stayed in a Classic Panoramic Sea View Room on a high floor, and the view was absolutely amazing. The room itself was immaculate, featuring a spacious layout and a fantastic rain shower. It truly felt like a luxurious escape, and the soundproofing made for a peaceful night’s rest.

Relaxing Pool Experience

The infinity pool at the resort was the perfect oasis during our stay. It was always easy to find loungers, even at peak times. The pool's temperature was just right, very relaxing, and had a great view of the beach. I even enjoyed drinks served right at my lounger, which added to the overall enjoyment.

I had a relaxing stay at this resort, enjoying the beautiful beach and the comfortable rooms. The personnel were usually polite and willing to help, which made things smoother. However, I did find some aspects like the pool access a bit frustrating since one pool was exclusively for club members. Overall, it was a decent experience, although the dining options fell short of what I expected from a resort of this caliber.
