Worst place I have ever stayed rooms were dirty the toilet had not even been flushed when we arrived.The whole place needs refurbishing stay at your own risk.We were on b & b and it was disgusting food left uncovered for the flys to get on and the same every day.Stay away and pay for something better.

Shocking Disappointment

After having driven past some fantastic looking hotels with grand pillars and stonework beautifully floodlit, what a disappointment to arrive at a dark & dingy archway made of scaffold poles with a plywood sign. Things did not improve, our rooms were not cleaned and not as described, the staff were friendly and helped us to change rooms but problems with the shower and getting toilet paper and towels took the enjoyment away. The restaurant looks nothing like the pictures, in fact the whole place looks like a dilapidated holiday camp from the 70's. Alas a walk down the road only lead us into being pestered non stop by the local shopkeepers, you really do have to be careful. Ask the price and haggle, they will take every penny they can wherever you go. Most of them will accept "La Shukran" (no thanks) with a smile, if you can manage one.

Basic

We arrived to find our room with a balcony overlooking the sea consisted of a tiny piece of concrete with just enough room for 2 chairs to fit only one way overlooking the sea if you cricked your neck and turned to the left! The chairs would not fit side by side to take advantage of the very distant sea view other view was a wall and no sun on the so called balcony. The room was vey basic and the sheets not changed all week. Electrics slightly worrying as when you plugged in hair straightners in the bathroom the 2 wall lights went out. Food was very basic, distugsting and served lukewarm. DO NOT GO ALL INCLUSIVE IT IS A RIP OFF. All inclusive guests have drinks served warm in plastic cups whether wine, beer or soft drinks. There is no Tea & Biscuits at 4.00 pm nor ice cream for the children, they use the ice cream fridge to store the plastic glasses in for the guests who are not all inclusive. The lunch and evening meals are just different variations of very tough beef in gravy and chicken which is pink close to the bone (undercooked and salmonella waiting to happen) in gravy. there is a very basic salad and then " combination salad "in the evening which consists of everything not eaten at lunchtime being mixed together in some colourfull dressing ! The deserts were a variation of sponge cake or pink custard. Any other food required during the day apart from set mealtimes, contrary to what it says in the brochure, has to be paid for. The kitchen staff have very dirty and stained clothes. The bar is very off putting and although suposed to stay open till 1.00 am closed at 10.30 to 11.00 . There is no disco and the entertainment consisted of one 15 minute performance by a belly dancer and one 30 minute performance, if you could call it that by a couple singing so out tune it was painfull to listen to in the 7 days we were there . The hotel outsources its laundry and they managed to loose ours and when we spoke to the management they suddenly did not undestand English. The management staff in reception were mostly very unhelpful except when you wanted a taxi or the hotel limousine " as they call it. DO NOT TRAVEL WITH THIS DRIVER HE RIPS YOU OFF ON PRICE AND AS A LAST RESORT SAYS HE DOES NOT HAVE ANY CHANGE . The pools are unheated and too cold to swim in. If you need to use the toilet you have to go back to your room as the only other one is in reception and you are not encouraged to use it wearing swimwear. Every night they de-bug the gardens and this gets into rooms in the vicinty which then smell revolting for about half an hour. The staff on the whole are quite friendly and I must say honest as when I left my camera on the bar by the pool the guy who runs the bar and then has to wait at tables did come up to me at dinner to return it. There is nothing to reccomend this hotel it is very, very basic and should not even have one star. One other cautionary note if you are thinking of taking the trip to Petra ignore what the Bluesky rep tells you about timing etc. you are picked up from your hotel at 3.00am and get back to it just before 2.00 am the following morning the organisation is shambolic to say the least and you only have just about 3 hours in total in Petra. Take into account it takes a good half an hour to walk down to the city you only get 2 hours to wander round and it is a rip off . Also take warm jackets . we were told to take sunscreen and a sunhat .. not much use to us as there was snow on the nountains and it was freezing, freezing cold.. However, it's good for all the hawkers selling waterproof and windproof jackets before you enter the city ! Would I go back, No !

Don't stay here unless you take your own bleach!

Bathrooms needed a good clean wouldn't have let a pet stay in them. Don't believe the photos of the hotel, if we'd have had rooms like this we would have been happy, we had a self catering room that needed to be condemmed.

What A Surprise

We were pleasantly surprised at this resort considering how cheap the holiday was. The complex is clean and tidy. Our room was cleaned daily and the entire staff could not have been friendlier. Although at this time of the year the pool and sea temperature is quite cool my husband was thrilled at the variety of fish he saw when he snorkelled over the reef. One tip, look out for the eastern Europeans at meal times, they do not believe in queuing like every other guest and the amount of food they leave on their plates would feed a small army. It was quite disgusting to see fellow humans behaving that way. I applaud the restaurant staff in the way that they treated the matter, very diplomatic.
