I recently visited Tamassa Bel Ombre for a day package, and unfortunately, the check-in experience was not professional. Staff were chatting among themselves, and overall, they seemed to need more training. It was our first visit, and we were simply asked whether we needed information about the day package or you already read with no proper guidance was given. No one showed us the shower room or the luggage room, at first which left us wandering around and wasting time trying to find them. I had to go back to reception to ask again. We were eventually shown the luggage room which need to be clean and arranged properly.It should be improved with more lockers for day package guests. In the end, we kept our bags in the car!! We then asked a housekeeping lady for help, and she kindly showed us the shower room and the towel kiosk. That small gesture meant a lot and was truly appreciated. On a positive note, the buffet was delicious with a wide variety of options. However, the pizza corner should be covered, as birds were eating from it. Staffs at the buffet are helpful. The ladies at the burger truck were very kind and cheerful. The bar staff were also friendly and helpful with drink selections, and the towel kiosk attendant was pleasant. Unfortunately, the ice cream lady was not welcoming at all, there wasn’t even a smile, and she was not helpful. The tea break selection was very minimal, but acceptable. The weather was lovely, making it a great day for swimming. Read less

Unforgettable Birthday Celebration at Tamassa! We recently celebrated family birthday at Tamassa, and it was truly an unforgettable experience from start to finish. From the moment we arrived, the team made us feel welcome and ensured everything was smooth and well organized. The service throughout the day was exceptional — warm, attentive, and always with a smile. It really made a difference for such a special occasion. A big highlight for our group was the kids corner, which was fantastic. The children were fully engaged and happy, allowing the adults to relax and enjoy the day stress-free. This was a huge plus for us as a family event. The food was also excellent — a great variety, fresh, and delicious. Everyone in our group found something they loved, and the overall dining experience exceeded our expectations. The atmosphere at the resort is vibrant and lively, with beautiful surroundings, great pool and beach areas, and a perfect balance between relaxation and fun. Thank you to the entire Tamassa team for helping us create such a memorable celebration. We will definitely recommend this experience and look forward to coming back again!
