The hotel itself is luxurious but it’s rather remote. In the summer, I imagine it would be okay to just hang out at the beach or play golf. For winter, both those options were out, and there wasn’t much to do there. But the main reason I am rating the hotel a 4 rather than a 5 is because of their spa. It was the worst spa at a luxury hotel that I had ever been to. The staff was inattentive, the quality of their services was mediocre, and they had no amenities at all for their clients. No towels in the locker room, nor anywhere in the sauna or pool areas. No hair brushes or combs for after you receive your services, so I went to the airport from the spa with greasy hair for the rest of the day from the facial and massages. Food at restaurants were likewise mediocre, but the saving grace for all this was our server, Mohamed. He was attentive, thoughtful, and was always trying to do more for our dinner experience.

Excellent service

A very nice hotel which benefits from an excellent team who provide a high level of service all round. Enjoyed the large outdoor heated pool and indoor spa, the hotel also has it's own private beach area and a nearby golf course. We ate in the Chinese and Tunisian restaurants which were both excellent and good value. There was also live music every night at the bar which was very comfortable and again the service excellent. If there is any criticism, the rooms would benefit from an upgrade. Doesn't need anything drastic, the shower blocked while we were there (quickly fixed) and a fresh coat of paint, re grouting and a new mirror in the bathroom would make a big difference. Only a £10 taxi ride from the airport and most of the tourist attractions are within 15-20 minutes by taxi. Would we go back, definitely.
