Our opinion
The resort is located in the Abu Dabbab area, right in front of the famous Elphistone coral reef. The beach is about 300 meters long and allows an easy access to water, even on the windiest days. The property offers large and functional accommodations all arranged in a semicircle towards the central swimming pool and the beach in front. The resort is very well known and, with the new Blend management, it is suitable especially to those looking for excellent value for money and a beach with easy access to the sea.
