We had one of the best stays at this resort! We spent 2 days and 2 nights, but it honestly felt like it wasn’t enough time to fully enjoy everything. The entire property is brand new, and the room we stayed in was incredibly spacious, with luxurious touches that made it feel extra special. The massive pool was a highlight, and with the beach just steps away, it felt like we had the best of both worlds. The resort also has top-notch amenities, from a fully equipped gym to a relaxing sauna and steam room, perfect for unwinding after a day by the pool or beach. One of our favorite surprises was discovering the hidden bars tucked away on the property, which gave the experience an exclusive and unique vibe. Overall, it was an incredible stay, and we couldn’t have asked for more. We’re already planning our return because 2 days just wasn’t enough to take it all in! Read less

Amazing new hotel. The rooms and the whole hotel is furnished with beautiful furniture. The rooms are large enough with comfortable beds. The food is of a high standard using quality ingredients. Everything is very tasty. The beach is clean and quite long. Four pools are great for relaxing. But what is absolutely the best - is the service and human approach. All of staff are friendly, smiling and create such a total relaxation. We felt like in paradise. We would love to return and hope to see everyone again. We already miss you very much. Thank you all so much for a wonderful holiday and we are looking forward to the next one. Read less

We stayed for two weeks, with a week in between and chose to return there because of the high quality of the hotel and particularly the excellent service which is really first class. Special thanks to Mr Rashid and all of his team in the extremely well managed East Restaurant including Thin, Joel, Pornima, Mazen, Mostafa and everyone else who made our meals there so enjoyable. The kitchen must also receive special praise for the variety and quality of meals and it's jovial Chef whose fabulous desserts were impossible to refuse. We've tried other resorts in RAK but this is by far our favourite. Read less

Property is nice and huge… However, STAFF!??? Where did they get them from?? Bare comprehension… I had to fight verbally to be explained to the day pass redemption..Which also does not make sense… It’s a rip off. Positive aspect is the rooms look really nice and the views!!! Good Lord!!!
