Excellent shelling

Outside looks a bit rundown but interior is nice, spacious clean room nice balcony with ocean view, decent pub and breakfast buffet, service is excellent. Loved snorkeling and shelling on beach to the side of the property, beach out front is too rocky to walk on . Slightly disappointed there was no gym but pool is nice. Liked the geese ducks and peacocks in front garden. Bring food for the stray cats !! Very friendly service from raooon? Not sure how to spell her name ( she used to work in grapevine Texas.

Not as good as usual!!

Check in was appalling. I was told to wait as receptionist on lunch, then after my lunch, there was a lot of confusion about whether I had paid for the stay or not.my room was lovely, but the bathroom had not been renovated. There was mould on tiles and up door frame.next morning I was awoken by member of staff delivering toiletries I hadn't ordered, even though do not disturb sign left on door. On checkout I was asked if had good stay, I said not really. I have stayed on numerous occasions. Receptionist very understanding. I will stay again but hopefully with better service!

Sheer luxury

As usual I had a fantastic stay. The room was a standard room, but there was nothing standard about it! It was extremely modern, and I particularly enjoyed the balcony. The bed was extremely comfortable too. I hope to stay again soon

Perfect for quiet getaway

My wife and I loved the peace and quiet of the hotel, the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff. If you are after a place to rest, then it is perfect. But you should know that there is basically nothing else to do in Mirfa (except during the water sports festival). It is a very small town: there are basically no other restaurants, no shops, no real sights (other than the Corniche/harbor). Definitely would recommend it for a relaxing vacation.

Cozy place to spend time and relax

Overall is a good hotel, and definitely can get better to take care of a few minor stuff, such as shower door (at least in the room I stayed in). the exterior of the building needs a good touch up. Moreover, the signage for getting to the hotel from the highway E11 is not very clear and a bit confusing.

we have visited the hotel 4 times and always the best person there who is very active and caring is the life guard at the pool (Indian) i apologies for never asking about the name. funny when we go now we always look forward that he will be there at the pool.
