The property is stunning — peaceful, luxurious, and beautifully maintained.

So I really enjoyed my short week stay at this hotel in RAK . It’s roughly an hour drive from Dxb . Very serene, very peaceful. You re greeted at the small check in reception in a small house . Perfect for hassle free check in , the process is very convenient and fast . Then you re driven to one of 34 villas along a sandy coast with fine mangrove like vegetation surrounding your villas . The villas are wonderful, perfect size for 2-3 occupants. Small but lovely private pool , bathtub , outdoor shower , sunbeds and private access to the sea . Which is a few minutes walk from your villa . Great mini bar , wonderful menu breakfast and restaurant. Very very peaceful resort . Small but comfortable gym . Everything was wonderful . Some minor improvements could be made but I ll take it privately with admins . Lovely stay !) will come back
