An Arabic Sanctuary

Although it takes a taxi ride out of the city to get to, this resort is well worth the journey. I opted for a Deluxe Room as was suitably impressed. The accommodation is divided into three main categories. Standard rooms are in the main hotel building, in the style usually found in hotel configurations. These rooms are pleasant and airy with a balcony off each. However, for a little extra, one can get a Deluxe room; these rooms are distinctive in their design. The deluxe rooms are built in traditional arabic design: terracotta mud exterior, arabesque designs inside. The rooms are spacious and have a delightful, sheltered balcony with plenty of seating. I found the service was excellent; staff were consistently friendly and well trained.
The Zara Spa offers a wide range of traditional therapeutics. The swimming pool is cleverly designed, appearing to end in space! There are the most beautiful native gardens, complete with bird life that adds so much to the peacefulness of the resort.
