What our guests says about facilities

The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Really good Dining Experience

During my stay, I particularly enjoyed the food at the Cinnamon restaurant. The staff went above and beyond to accommodate my family's strict dietary requirements. The Chef personally came to our table to discuss ingredients, which made us feel valued and cared for. We also had pancakes made with our own mix, showcasing their flexibility and attention to detail.

We practically spent our entire time enjoying the pool area, with one being an infinity pool that offered amazing views. It was well-maintained and temperature-controlled, ensuring a pleasant experience for the kids.

The resort offers stunning sea views and has a charming vibe, perfect for a relaxing getaway. My experience included a warm celebration of our anniversary, which was enhanced by attentive decor and a peaceful atmosphere. However, I did encounter issues with the dining experience in the restaurant, which lacked flavor and felt rushed due to the staff's demanding schedule. Overall, while the views and ambiance are exceptional, the food service could use some significant improvement.

I had a wonderful time at The Cove Rotana! The resort has lovely updated amenities, and the pool areas are perfect for families. However, the dining quality could use improvement, especially for a five-star resort. Although the check-in experience was a bit bumpy, the staff made up for it with great service once we were settled in.

Overall, I can see the potential, but the inconsistencies in service and value made for a less than ideal stay.
