The hotel

For travellers who aren’t satisfied with a simple ‘one pool, one bar, one restaurant’ kind of holiday, this island escape overflows with choice. Its private white sand beach accompanies seven fabulous swimming pools, including a pirate-themed aqua zone for children to cool off on sun-soaked Marjan Island. It has 12 places to drink and dine, from family-style Italian Vespa to the gastropub food and fun of The Anchor, and the Arabic snacks and shisha of ShoFee Rooftop Bar. And, while the beachfront setting, eforea spa, and contemporary styling of Doubletree by Hilton Resort & Spa Marjan Island attract couples and groups of friends, families get the bonus of the kids’ club’s climbing wall, Arcade Zone, and huge playground with its climbing structures, trampolines and shaded toddler area.

The entire staff was courteous and attentive, but I’d especially like to commend Anees for his outstanding service. He went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable—whether it was helping with our luggage, providing local recommendations, or ensuring all our requests were promptly taken care of. His friendly attitude and proactive approach truly made a difference. The room was clean, spacious, and well-equipped, and the overall atmosphere was peaceful and welcoming. With great service, a convenient location, and excellent hospitality, I would highly recommend this hotel and look forward to visiting again. Read less

Just come back from this wonderful hotel. The staff are so polite and welcoming. Big selection of food in the buffet. Although we went half board would recommend going all inclusive. I've done a lot of travelling in my time and this hotel is one of the best. My grandchildren loved it.
