I believe the dining area could be more spacious, as its current capacity seems limited. The tables are not always prepared on time and may not be cleaned thoroughly. Additionally, the glasses in both the dining and pool areas often appear to be stained. The towels provided at the poolside seem worn out. On a positive note, the towels in the rooms are of good quality, and the room cleaning service is satisfactory

The property was well clean and located centrally for all tourist attractions. The spa at the hotel is expensive and the service wasn’t as good as expected from a 5* establishment. Having extensively travelled, the Hotel Spa I would rate 3* compared to the rest of the 5* services around the hotel.

The Rixos Gulf Hotel is absolutely magnificent. From our arrival to our departure we experienced high quality service. The staff at the reception desk are welcoming and always ready to help even when we checked in late at night. The rooms are quite spacious with tv, iron, safe and coffe/tea facilities. The bathroom is big and well stocked with hygiene products. We were lucky to get two intecommunicating rooms. Sameer looked after us and made sure that we had all we needed (and extra). We had only half board. Both meals were varied and although some dishes were available every day there was quite a variety and carered for all. Waiters were attentive and always ready to get our table ready or bring drinks. Some part of the restaurant had A/C on high so it was quite cold. The hotel is on the beach which is well kept with plenty of sunbed and free towels. The sea water was quite cold. There are water sports available, two heated swimming pools and a jacuzzi. There is even a gym with separate female room. The hotel offers locker rooms if your flight is after the check out time. We spent an unforgettable holiday! Thank you to everyone at Rixos Gulf!
