Vi hade fantastiska dagar. Men! Det finns ingen strand och att bada i havet är inte ett alternativ. Så trots det exklusiva och härliga så saknade vi möjligheten till promenader och fysisk aktivitet. Inget gym. Ett gym hade gjort hela skillnaden. Två tre dagar hade varit perfekt. Tips är: börja semestern här, varva ner och mys, men åk sedan till ett annat hotell där ni kan röra er mer

Great hotel in forrest surrounding

Very friendly staff settled in a beautiful surrounding. Great pool, and everything is so clean. We felt really looked after. How ever, it said in various sites that there is a beach here, it is, maybe 25 sq meter in total, but with no acces to the sea, there is a very large ref.

nice spot for quiet holiday

The stay was amazing, great spot to chill out and really get a quiet holiday. The villas are so beautiful 😍 Couple of things that could have elevated the trip. The pool to be regularly cleaned would have been nice. Everyday it was full of bugs no matter what the time of day! Would also be great for there to be a better bar service from the sun loungers plus all day snack menu! Staff over all were absolutely excellent and super friendl.

At Tikitam, we felt at home from the very first minute. All members of staff as well as the manager were absolutely friendly and helpful at all times. Everyone was eager to make our stay as comfortable as can be. Besides, the food and drinks were remarkably delicious and prepared with passion. The room was decorated nicely according to its theme and the interior was well-chosen. Moreover, everything was perfectly clean. Tikitam is located within a wonderful piece of nature and for those who want to spent some relaxing days, it is the perfect place. We are absolutely happy to have spent one week here and would definitely recommend it!

Les extérieurs sont jolis et bien entretenus, jardins, allées..) Par contre, je n’ai pas du tout apprécié ma chambre, avec un revêtement au sol en synthétique ( imitation parquet) ainsi que dans la sdb ( imitation marbre ) mais chaud qd on marche..) La literie est de mauvaise qualité ( matelas mousse ordinaire) draps en coton mélangé, la climatisation est bruyante et peu efficace, il n’y en a pas ds la sdb. Ce n’est pas digne d’un 5 étoiles D’autant que j’ai pu comparer avec l’hôtel précédent où j’ai passé le début de mon séjour ( parquet, plafond cathédrale, Clim dans toutes les pièces, literie de qualité..) Le personnel est agréable ( Merci à Zena, Zaina, Amiri ..) Par contre, honte au manager Gertrude, qui vous promet de gérer, et vous rappeler et ne rappelle jamais.D’ailleurs , je n’ai pas vu 1 seul manager venir voir ses clients au cours de la journée ou de la soirée,..étonnant !!
