Reviews and Ratings
I absolutely loved the hotel for its fantastic and huge terrace, providing an awesome view. The spacious rooms were a big plus, but they could use an update. Despite that, waking up to the beautiful views every day was a real treat.
The hotel offers a mix of good and not-so-great aspects. The rooms are spacious and suitable for families but fall short of a 5-star standard with issues like lukewarm shower water and dirty towels. The location is convenient for those looking to explore Gumbet town and the beach, overlooking the sea, but cleanliness could be improved in some areas.
I found the hotel to be in a great location, perfect for walking around with amazing surroundings. The rooms, however, were a bit disappointing as they lacked a view of the sea and were in desperate need of an update. The service was really friendly and helpful, though there were some issues with management being a bit rude. As for the dining options, they were a bit limited, especially in terms of sweet products. Despite some drawbacks, the facilities were well-maintained and satisfactory.
The hotel had clean and modern rooms, but the service was initially lacking until I raised my concerns. The location was pleasant with an overlook of the sea, and the inclusive package provided good value. The dining options were limited, especially in the winter, offering basic choices like bread and cheese.
Staying at this hotel was a fantastic experience with some great highlights, like the huge terrace in the rooms. The service was incredibly friendly and helpful, though in need of a little update. The location offered a beautiful view but had some minor inconveniences. The dining options were satisfactory but could have been better. Overall, a good value for money stay with a lot of positives to enjoy.
The hotel offers spacious rooms with a fantastic and huge terrace, ideal for families with children. However, some promised amenities were missing. The service is helpful and accommodating, but might need some refreshing. The location provides a nice view but feels like a jail at times.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were fantastic with a huge terrace, perfect for families with children, but the service was unprofessional and poorly managed. The location was great for shopping but felt a bit like a prison. The dining was basic, and the facilities were decent but not outstanding.
Upon my late evening check-in, the room was a disgrace and the overall experience was disappointing with lukewarm shower water and dirty bath towels. The rooms are tired and desperately in need of an update; the bed was really uncomfortable. However, the location is nice to hang out and there's a friendly bar across the road. Despite the fantastic views, the sea view is preferred over a side sea view.
The hotel is spacious and suitable for families with children, but the rooms are tired and urgently need an update. The service is friendly and cooperative, although some senior staff can come off as rude. The location is fantastic for walking and being close to shopping, bars, and beaches, but avoid it if you seek beachfront views. Dining options are limited, especially in the off-season. However, the facilities are well-maintained and convenient.
The hotel had a gorgeous view and the room was exactly like the one in the photo. However, the walls and hair were not properly cleaned, and the bed was very uncomfortable.
The hotel offers spacious rooms that are great for families, but the quality is more in line with a 1-star standard in Dubai with really uncomfortable beds. The service is lacking professionalism and attentiveness. The location, however, provides a fantastic view facing the sea, yet there are subtle drawbacks like limited dining options. The facilities are satisfactory despite the room for improvement.
The hotel's rooms are in desperate need of an update, but the staff offers friendly and helpful service. The location is fantastic for walking and offers a nice view, but it may not be recommended for everyone.
The hotel had some drawbacks like smoking odor throughout the corridors and cleanliness issues with visible flies and hair, making it unsuitable for a comfortable stay. However, the service was pleasant and efficient despite a small hiccup with a staff member. The location was not recommended due to cleanliness concerns but had a bright spot with the friendly bar/restaurant owner 'George' nearby. The dining experience was mediocre with limited options, and the facility ratings reflect the average overall experience.
The hotel is very big and good for people with children. The rooms had none of the amenities that were promised in the reservation advertised. The service was friendly and warm, but some management staff were rude. The location is perfect to walk around, but cleanliness could be improved. The dining options were limited, and the facilities are satisfactory.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were clean and modern, but the lingering smell of smoke was a downside for a non-smoker like me.
