“Relaxing and worth the trip”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

Beautifully kept grounds and excellent staff. My family and I absolutely loved our stay here. From the moment we arrived we were treated with a level of sincere hospitality that is hard to find. Cheers to Robert at the bar. Hope your sweet dreams continue to come true. Also, a huge hug and kisses from our children to Margerie for her babysitting service. We will, without hesitation return and advise anyone looking for a pristine beach, excellent food and service with a smile try this resort. For the ladies, try Moods Salon and ask for Johnny. He and his staff made the experience wonderful for my wife.

Room Tip: get a junior suite. Worth the upgrade. Also, look for a seaside view

“Not your usual Novotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

I booked this hotel through a travel agent and initially considered it quite expensive. But, after arriving on the spot, I realized that this is not your usual Novotel, not even by far. This place is a mix of arabic arhitecture and cuisine with resort-like facilities, including beach, large pool and pool bar. Rooms are large and good-looking, nothing really special. Excellent breakfast, nice morocco restaurant, good beach. Location could be an issue, but Manama is relatively small, so you can reach downtown easily.

Room Tip: You may opt between a view towards the beach or the Gulf. Anyone is good!

“Nice options for a relaxing stay in Manama”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 January 2012
2
people found this review helpful

After the negative reviews about this hotel, I was a little bit scared.
Once I arrived, I was totally happy about my choice.
this hotel, looks much more like a resort.
it has a main gateway, with the reception, and then a beautiful yard with a big pool, and a smaller pool for kids. Then, another great feature is the sandy beach with a nice restaurant by the sea. The rooms have all a little terrace facing the pool or the beach. The decor inside is basic but nice and the rooms seem all new.
In the morning there is a great breakfast buffet which is very rich..
one day we run late and the waiters were very nice and served us breakfast by thye pool.
Inside you find also a hair salon in case you need, and can also leave your car in the hotel car park.
On average a nice stay. With a perfect unique position (pool and beach are not very often available in the hotels there), a nice atmosphere, and the option also to stay in enjoying a sunny day by the pool or to the beach.
I didn't try the restaurants inside the resort, but there are 2 or 3 options which i think could be nice to try...
servicewise, they forgot a couple of time to refill the complimentary water in the room, but after a call, I immediately received them in room...

“Only in spring!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 January 2012

It's a resort in a gulf country , so in summer it will be extremely hot and in winter too cold.

The noise isolation is very very bad , but the room furniture is ok.
