The Rixos Gulf Hotel is absolutely magnificent. From our arrival to our departure we experienced high quality service. The staff at the reception desk are welcoming and always ready to help even when we checked in late at night. The rooms are quite spacious with tv, iron, safe and coffe/tea facilities. The bathroom is big and well stocked with hygiene products. We were lucky to get two intecommunicating rooms. Sameer looked after us and made sure that we had all we needed (and extra). We had only half board. Both meals were varied and although some dishes were available every day there was quite a variety and carered for all. Waiters were attentive and always ready to get our table ready or bring drinks. Some part of the restaurant had A/C on high so it was quite cold. The hotel is on the beach which is well kept with plenty of sunbed and free towels. The sea water was quite cold. There are water sports available, two heated swimming pools and a jacuzzi. There is even a gym with separate female room. The hotel offers locker rooms if your flight is after the check out time. We spent an unforgettable holiday! Thank you to everyone at Rixos Gulf!

The property is nice and the staff are very courteous, polite and friendly. The rooms are spacious and big enough for a family of 4. Being vegetarian, we found the breakfast spread was good with sufficient veg options. Valet parking makes it really convenient if you travel with your car. It was our wedding anniversary and the hotel gave us little treats to make our day special. All in all, would recommend this property. We had a terrible experience with access to the hotel during a football match which was not the hotel's mistake but definitely keep in mind and check with the hotel about any events in the stadium nearby.
