The property has great location a great beach with beds and shade. The pool was nice and the service was great. The only thing I wasn’t expecting is to find the rooms very old and in bad conditions, the web page shows a very modern hotel but it’s not like that. I’m reality it’s old but well kept in common areas but my room was damage, old and very small (and I get the family room )

I stayed here for two night to visit Petra. As we arrived here in the morning, I think we had better go to the city centre before check-in. But the reception let us check in earlier so we took a rest instead of wandering under the hot sun. Breakfast was good. On the last day, we could stay in the swimming pool until our taxi arrived after check-out. I feel this hotel cared about visitor’s convenience and satisfaction. I will visit here again with my kids!

I had a fantastic stay at this hotel and wanted to express my deep appreciation for the incredibly kind and helpful staff. The spa and animation teams, in particular, went above and beyond to make my visit truly memorable. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with warm smiles and exceptional service. The animation team's enthusiasm and creativity added so much fun to my stay, making sure my kids were having the most fun possible, there was never a dull moment. Their dedication to guest satisfaction was evident in everything they did. I can't thank them enough for their outstanding service. This hotel truly shines because of its wonderful staff, and I'll definitely be returning for another delightful experience.

Very accommodating hotel who were able to offer early check in and allowed use of facilities after check out. We had to ask for bed to be made up and more towels, teabags, cups etc as there was two adults and two kids in room, but they responded promptly.

Bad experience during check in! The receiption staff didn't give me the room key because I have an extra guest (one baby less than one year). He told me we will cancel your nonrefundable reservation accoording to the hotel policy, or you have to kick your baby out of the hotel to receive the room, or you have to upgrade your reservation for seaview suit. So, I upgraded my reservation, then I received the suit at 3:40 pm.
Everything else is excellent.
