Merci, ne changez rien
Pros:

Un bel accueil, des professionnels sympathiques, compétents. Nous avons bénéficié d'un accompagnement tout au long du séjour si nous avions des besoins. L'emplacement est formidable au bord de la mer, l'hotel est bien entouré de verdure, des taxis possibles à partir de l'établissement. De plus, un service de petit déjeuner et restauration au top avec de très bons plats

Well located on Atlantic Blvd just around where Fajara turns into Bakau - great value for such a prime location.
Nice large pools and decent restaurant with reasonable prices all things considered. Large circular room with fan and aircon, good shower.
