We had a wonderful stay at Tamassa Bel Ombre! ❤️ From the moment we arrived, we felt so welcomed. A special thank you to Mr Krishen for personally welcoming my mum and me. Such a lovely gesture that really set the tone for our stay! What we loved most was the atmosphere at Tamassa, the amazing hospitality. There’s such a lovely, joyful vibe, but at the same time, it’s peaceful and serene — the perfect place to unwind, relax and enjoy some quality time. The staff really deserve a special mention. Everyone was always smiling, friendly and so welcoming! Whenever we needed anything extra for our room, the team was more than happy to help, and everything was taken care of so promptly. We never felt that anything was too much trouble, and we really appreciated that. A big thank you to Mr Nishad for being so attentive to our needs, and to Mr Yaseen, Mr Parvesh, Mr Meven, Melison, Analie, Aurelina, Kavish at the bar, Sid from the entertainment team, Mme Doris, Mme Karoona, Mme Dilshad, the Playa team, the chef and Vinod, the manager. Thank you all for your kindness, your smiles and for making us feel so welcomed throughout our stay. ❤️ Also really appreciated how the team handled the cancellation of our nautical activities due to the weather. Everything was explained to us clearly, and it was reassuring to see that our safety came first. The activities were rescheduled for when the weather improved, which we completely understood. It’s always nice to see that this kind of care and attention goes beyond just providing a service. We left with beautiful memories and look forward to returning soon. Thank you, Tamassa, for making our stay such a lovely one! 🌴☀️❤️ Read less

Yo! I would like to say a big big thanks to MRS BABITA and MRS ANNIVERR for this excellent service they gave us, me and my husband. We actually just checked in at outrigger resort thus decided to take a burger at Tamassa after 3 years . #Throwback when we stayed at Tamassa resort for 2 nights year 2023 june for our honeymOon 3years back , we really liked the service and hotel itself at that time.. Surprisingly when we came back this year as non resident for a burger, the service was still outstanding.. it felt like home again! Along with the same ambiance .we also had the famous tam tam drink which i really liked the last time we came .. well its still the same!.. quality service… friendly Mrs babita n Mrs anniverr who made us at ease.. no regrets that we took the decision to have lunch at Tamassa despite staying at outrigger.. Thanks for this amazing service once again. we”ll be back! Read less
