One of the best Lebanese dining experiences in Aqaba. The food was authentic and full of flavor, especially the mezze and grilled dishes. The atmosphere is elegant and perfect for a relaxed dinner or special occasion. The service was attentive and professional, especially mohammad banat , the overall experience felt luxurious. Definitely a place I would visit again.

A nice choice for family vacation
Pros:

The staff is very friendly, offer to upgrade our room to a room with sea view. The shower is with good pressure. The room is very quiet. The breakfast is fantastic with a lot of choice. The swimming pool looks nice. But we didn’t try since it’s winter.

An amazing 3 day experience
Pros:

The hotel was so nice and the staff are super friendly and helpful. Receptionists were always kind and welcoming. And the waiter Afifi at the beach bar was helpful and caring making sure my sister who wasn’t feeling so well could recover quickly. The bartender and waiter Annaliza in the hotel always came with a smile and made perfect drinks. While I was at the cafe I was impressed by the waiter Abed Alwneh who really showed top tier service and professionalism. Really had to remember these names as they made my experience here even better. Really clean and nice gym. Would definitely come back here.

Great restaurant experience
Pros:

We had a wonderful diner at the beach restaurant. The food was cooked on an open fire and was very tasty. The staff, Bader, Mohamed and Amer did a great job with their friendliness and knowledge in explaining food ingredients etc. The be beautiful sunset on the beach made a perfect dinner.
