The hotel is good exactly for its 4 stars, the food is acceptable and delicious. The location is convenient 1 beach line, there is a small swimming pool, not far from the hotel there are restaurants, a burger joint, KFC, at gas stations you can buy water and a small snack.
At the reception, you can exchange dollars for dirhams, the rate is not very profitable, but acceptable, unlike at the airport.
We took breakfast and dinner, if desired, you can change and refuse dinner at the hotel and replace it with lunch, which is very convenient if you have excursions.
Of the cons:
- there are no supermarkets nearby, you have to walk a kilometer to the store;
- there are not enough sun loungers if the sea is warm and all the guests go out to swim, there will not be enough sun loungers;
- the construction site nearby is not annoying in principle, but there is nowhere to fall to get aesthetic enjoyment of nature.
- the Emirate of Fujairah is very far from Dubai and Abu Dhabi, so the delivery of a car when renting in this state will cost from 700 to 1500 dirhams, keep this in mind.
And in general, an acceptable hotel, I can't say anything bad.
Excellent hotel, meets its 4*
There is everything you need for a comfortable stay: massage, sauna, gym.
There are Russian-speaking employees. The food is good, everything is very tasty.
The dishes are varied and very tasty.
There are recommendations for future visitors: if you are going on an excursion and skip dinner or any meal, then you need to come to the reception before the trip and warn that you will not be at dinner. This is necessary in order to then replace a missed meal with a meal on another day (for example, on the day of departure). We only found out about this after we went on an excursion.
Excellent location, near the new amphitheater, waterfall, as well as the embankment, which has recreation areas and toilets (with air conditioning) and a cafe. The territory of the hotel is small, the first beach line , a couple of minutes to the sea . The sea is clean , the sunset is good and the beach and the bottom are sand. You can always find a free sunbed. The water in the pool is cooling. The hotel building and rooms are old, but everything is clean, the rooms are large, there is no balcony (in this heat it is not needed). In the bathroom there is a cable on which you can perfectly dry things. The air conditioner is adjustable, you can customize it for yourself. From accessories and cosmetics : shampoo, hair balm, shower gel , body lotion , toothbrush, paste. The hair dryer is powerful, it lies in one of the drawers in the room. The staff is responsive, instantly fulfills requests and wishes. The food is for an amateur, because there are many dishes spicy and sweet and sour. I liked it, the cook perfectly combines and uses spices. There has always been a fireworks display of flavors. Breakfast is standard - eggs in several variations (boiled, omelet with regular and additives, fried eggs), sausages, toasts, porridge, jams, cereals. Lunch and dinners : there was always fish, beef and chicken, 3-4 versions of each - stewed, fried, battered, etc. Side dishes - rice, pasta, potatoes, steamed vegetables. Minimum fruits are watermelon, fruit salad, grapefruit, orange. You can choose from a variety of lemonades, coffee, tea and water. The hotel is located in the Emirate of Sharjah, it is a dry law here, take this into account when traveling. Check-in at 15-00, after multiple requests, we checked in at 13-00, as soon as the room was cleaned, thank you for that. And as we understood it , it 's not really necessary . Also, take with you adapters for sockets, the hotel does not give out.
I want to leave a positive review for this hotel: we liked everything and the variety of dishes, maintaining cleanliness in the room, a beautiful view from the window, friendly and helpful staff, an area with swimming pools, a beach and, of course, a spa.
Of what we personally wanted and lacked, this is:
1 there was no clothes dryer in the room, I had to hang it on hangers under the lamps.
2 the beach is good, but construction is underway and part of the beach is closed, but this is all temporary.
3 there is no animation in the hotel, although there are all conditions for this and there are plenty of people who want to. (While we were resting, we gathered the people ourselves for water polo and ping-pong)
This is actually my opinion on the disadvantages. Otherwise, there is nothing to complain about, the vacation was great.
Cool hotel polite staff speak English well (not all) there are 2 Russian-speaking people very good breakfasts lunches and dinners there is not much food but everything is there and chicken and beef and fish through the road there is a kfc pizza hot and gas station near the hotel waterfall and amphitheater you can walk to the mosque opposite 1 km the beach is very good clean sand and if you approach people, you can go with masks to see turtles, sharks and fish, of course not like in Egypt, but also not bad rested for 15 days very good impressions
The hotel is on a solid 4th floor, although not young, but the rooms are clean and comfortable. The windows, however, do not open, but the air conditioner saves. The rooms even have a bathroom (not just a shower). The buffet is varied, for example, there is more meat than in Turkey or Egypt, but there are fewer pastries (as well as fruits). Drinks in the dining room are more diverse, but you will not find alcohol anywhere (since the hotel is located on part of the enclave of the emirate of Sharjah, which is considered "non-alcoholic"), so anyone who wants alcohol is brought with them (either from Duty Free, upon arrival). There are a couple of attractions not far from the hotel, but, in fact, there is not much where to walk. There is no animation (and discos) in the hotel, and unobtrusive music is present in the pool area. The sound of construction equipment was a little annoying (a breakwater was reinforced with stones next to the hotel), and a new hotel complex is being built nearby (according to the guide, it has been a year), but it does not bother with sounds, only in some rooms there is a view of it. In general, the hotel is for a relaxing, unobtrusive stay.
THE PERFECT HOTEL FOR A FAMILY HOLIDAY
If you need a relaxing holiday on the shores of the Gulf of Oman, without noisy parties and hangouts - come here!
I used to read in reviews that this is a hotel for pensioners and families with children, and after a vacation there, I completely agree with this statement.
The hotel is located far from all the hype of the city of Khorfakkan, but there is somewhere nearby to go for a walk - a beautiful amphitheater (where concerts are held), a stunning illuminated waterfall, at the top of which there is a restaurant (book tables in advance, especially for Saturday and Sunday, you can't just come for coffee, only with food), a beautiful wide embankment with walking ficuses, palm trees, flowers, other plants, jogging and bike paths, a city beach with free clean public toilets (according to the experience of visiting - except Saturdays and Sundays, cleaners do not work these days), several cafes, a huge supermarket Al Safeer (20 minutes walk), a beautiful square with fountains and a huge flag UAE (further away, it's probably 40 minutes to go). There is also a football stadium nearby, where matches were held (the visiting team was at our hotel for one day, they even had a place in the restaurant fenced off for them), city government offices. To the right of the hotel, yes, there is a gas station, which has a small shop. There was a mosque next to the hotel, where prayers were held, while a street microphone was turned on. But we usually only heard when we passed by around 9 pm, in the morning it was not audible, it did not interfere with rest.
There is a construction site next to the hotel, as can be seen from the photos from the room. Yes, it is noisy (except on Sundays), but we got used to it almost immediately and did not notice it.
In the lobby of our hotel there is a mock-up of the future hotel and apartment complex (the owner of the hotel is building it). According to the hotel staff, they will soon blow up the nearest mountain, install breakwaters, make a marina and a new beach so that its territory is enough for everyone living in the future complex.
We arrived at the hotel early, around 10 a.m. We were lucky with the check-in - they were supposed to check in only after 15:00, but in the end we were sent to lunch at 12:30, and after lunch (around 13:30) we were called and given room keys. The four of us were on vacation - my parents and my sister and I. My parents got a room with a huge double bed with a view of the gas station, the city, a cafe opposite, my sister and I got a room with a view of the beach, the sea and the construction site (photo attached). To be honest, we were not particularly interested in the view from the room, because we did not come to sit in the rooms, but to swim and sunbathe. If this is important to someone, the room can be improved for an additional fee. By the way, the hotel did not take any deposit and/or tourist tax. The rooms have everything you need for a comfortable stay - daily replenished stocks of shampoos, balms, shower gels (they are of awesome quality!), tea and coffee bags, water (at first they put 2 bottles, then they even began to put 3). Cleaning every day, we didn't have time to clean up properly once, but we put everything we needed in the room, it was just a very big check-out and check-in that day, the staff had to prepare a lot of rooms for new guests, we were understanding. To change the towels, they need to be put on the floor (there is a sign in the bathroom about this), a couple of times we did not change the towels (once to our parents, once to my sister and me), but I went to the reception, a new set was immediately brought. Once, too, the parents were not given shampoo, they also asked for it, they brought it right away.
The restaurant also has excellent service, they ask how many people will be at the table, immediately pour water into the right number of glasses. We had "all inclusive", so at lunch and dinner we asked to bring juice, tea, coffee. Yes, according to this system, tea bags, instant coffee and packaged juice are here, but we did not complain. Dirty dishes are removed from the tables very quickly. They didn't start the service so early at breakfast, so I came by 6:30 for breakfast. therefore, she poured herself coffee from decanters. As for the food, there is a great choice for breakfast - you can ask the cook to cook eggs in any way (the main ones are indicated on the plate, you can point your finger if you do not know the languages), always ready scrambled eggs, chicken sausages, grilled tomatoes, pancakes, delicious French toast (I love!), cheeses (like feta), sliced ham (turkey and chicken) and cheddar cheese, milk porridge! it's the same every day, but you can add different things to it - brown sugar and cinnamon, honey, jams, breakfast cereals, vegetables, fruits (grapefruit, orange, watermelon), there was something Indian or Pakistani too, but we didn't take it. For lunch and dinner, there is a variety of Indian or Pakistani cuisine, dishes with curry, with various specific sauces and seasonings. For children, it was always just pasta or just potatoes. Various salads, hot dishes, soups (from lentils, chicken, vegetables, cream soups mostly). Of course, we got tired of food by the end of the vacation, for the last three days we ate pasta with chicken and vegetables with fruits as children. Breakfasts didn't bother me, it was always delicious and there were almost no spices) By the way, there was a very tasty bread at breakfast - not toast, but a loaf from which you had to cut off pieces yourself, as if freshly baked, and not bought in a store, was hot even in the morning.
About the beach and the pool. There is a small swimming pool on the territory, plus another small one for small toddlers, there were a lot of free sunbeds near the pool. We never swam there, but many people hung out there until the evening. There is a bar next to the pool, where, according to the all-inclusive system, we could take the same juices, water, tea and coffee. The water was given warm, but we just took it and put it in the refrigerator in the room, the water cycle was while the new one was cooling, we drank yesterday's.
The beach is small, but in principle there was enough space for everyone. The beach opened at 7 a.m. and closed after sunset. The pool was open until 9 p.m. There would be enough sun beds if our tourists did not occupy them in the morning, but came only in the evening. Beach towels are provided near the pool, where you need to write the number of towels in front of your room. There are no more towels than there are people in the room. By 7 a.m., our tourists were queuing at the entrance to the beach to run to take sun beds, then they took them and went to breakfast.
Hotel staff from the spa constantly walk along the beach, offering massages, manicures, pedicures and other various services. All these services can be obtained on the R floor - under the roof of the hotel. There is a gym and a women's/men's spa. We just went up there to see the view from above, one of the photos is just from there from the gym.
At the reception, we twice asked to order a taxi for us, went to the neighboring city of Fujairah to the Fujairah Mall, Lulu, City center shopping centers. Taxi according to the meter, the estimated cost in one direction is 60 dirhams. Tourists from the hotel suggested that there is also a bus to Fujairah, the cost is 15 dirhams per person. Just don't get caught - instead of a taxi, they offer to rent a car with a driver for crazy money.
The hotel also offers to take you to the leather and fur store for free, we went and regretted wasting our time. The store is located in Ras al Khaimah, an hour and a half drive there. The store has a very intrusive service, everyone speaks Russian there, they follow you around. There are a lot of outerwear, but the models are all for women over 60 years old, there are practically no youth clothes. Bags, purses, backpacks - similarly. In general, it is better not to agree if you are not interested in buying outerwear.
Another positive thing is that turtles swam with us in the sea, they swam to eat algae and grass from ropes and buoys. Crabs live on the rocks to the right, they are interesting to watch. There are schools of fish swimming in the sea, I saw them with glasses.
By the way, the hotel offers water entertainment services - jet skis, boats, bananas, etc. But experienced tourists told us that on the city beach of Khorfakkan, the same services are offered almost 30% cheaper.
Overall, the impression of the hotel was very pleasant, we would love to come again.
By the way, a group of tourists from Dubai came to our hotel to swim in the Gulf of Oman.
In general, everything is cool. For a relaxing holiday with children, that's the thing. The food is good, cool beach and pool. Only our tourists are infuriating.... Well, just a kick-ass. I woke up at 7 a.m. I look out the window at the beach, 2 people, but all the sunbeds are already in towels... Moreover, when people leave, no one cleans the roll. I saw yesterday how the staff goes and collects these towels in the evening... Well, don't be arrogant pigs. Please do. You are not alone here...
Nice hotel. It is small, but on the first line and with its own beach. The Family took the room - there are decent places. The cuisine is mostly local, the food is good, but by the end of the vacation it gets a little boring. The beach is a bomb! Sandy, nice calm entrance to the sea. The sea is very warm, like milk. We swam with a mask along the reefs, but it seems that there will no longer be such an opportunity, a huge apartment complex is being built nearby. At the other end of the village there is a port with amazing fresh fish.
The hotel is a little tired, but there is no critical old age)). A nice place, pleasant. If you want a sandy beach, a warm sea and just lie like a star, then this place is perfect!
The card works with the Union Pay system
The hotel will change the currency at the reception at a completely normal exchange rate
This is a great hotel!!! I really liked everything! The hotel has a wide beautiful beach, a warm clean bay, a large swimming pool, a children's club, a small shop at the entrance to the territory, a pool bar, 3 villas and 177 magnificent rooms, a restaurant with super food, a Lounge area, a Lobby Lounge at the reception, a Spa area and a fitness room on the top floor. The hotel can be recommended to absolutely anyone, because it is really worthy. Next to the hotel there is a pizzeria, a burger joint, a KFC, a gas station, which has a store where almost all the most necessary edible and household products are sold, as well as those working here can cook very tasty freshly squeezed juices and a bunch more (there is a menu there), besides, not too expensive, the Lobby Bar will 2 times more expensive. In the vicinity there is the Korfakkan amphitheater and an artificial waterfall, where it is great to walk and take photos, not far from them stretches the promenade of Korfakkan Bay, where you can also walk in the evening. There are also many restaurants and establishments on the embankment, the so-called "cold rooms", where you can go and really cool off. I want to go back there again!!! Currently, the 2nd building is being built next to the hotel, which will no longer have 4, but 5 stars🔥🔥🔥
The hotel is not new, but it keeps the brand, very good! Clean, beautiful, calm. The staff is polite and unobtrusive, everything you ask is quickly done. The room is cleaned daily and well. The food is varied and delicious. In the photo there is a waterfall not far from the hotel, but not everyone knows that there is a restaurant upstairs! We visited. The beach is sandy, the entrance is gentle, the sea is gorgeous!
I really liked the place and the beach. The hotel is also nice, clean, the location is in the form of a Trefoil. The disadvantage of the hotel is the lack of a balcony, and the windows do not open. The views from the window from either side are beautiful. The food is quite satisfactory. The location among the mountains, near an artificial waterfall, is beautiful.
Overall, I liked the hotel. Another disadvantage is the location of the hotel is very far from the airport.
The staff is very friendly, the cuisine is delicious, the beach is nearby, sandy with a gentle approach. The hotel has a swimming pool in which the water is always warm at about 29 degrees. The rooms are in good condition, there are kettles, bags of coffee, tea, sugar are updated every day. There is an iron and an ironing board... and even scales ! On the last- 7th floor there is a free fitness room, where I enjoyed running on the treadmill in the morning. I recommend taking the all-inclusive service, it's just that eating in a cafe is too expensive for two 2000-3000 rubles. For example, a small pizza cost about 850 rubles (32 dirhams × 25 rubles), and drinks 200-300 rubles (pepsi, coffee, cocktails). There is a KFC, a pizzeria, a burger bar near the hotel. I recommend a snack with sandwiches (sooooo delicious) at the gas station on the left side of the hotel. There was a temperature of 26-28 in the afternoon at the end of January, the sea is a little cool 24 degrees, but you can swim!
The hotel is pleased with its delicious cuisine and close location to the Gulf of Oman. The beach is clean, there is also a city beach near the hotel. Dubai Airport is 1.5-2 hours away by car. The hotel changes towels and cleans the room daily, and there is excellent Wi-Fi in the lobby. The hotel has its own swimming pool where you can choose drinks: juice, coffee, tea. In general, I liked everything very much.
The hotel is clean, the staff is helpful. There were several problems in the process of living with a bathroom and a TV, they called the reception - the repairmen came very quickly and fixed the problems. The room is clean, comfortable, the air conditioner is conveniently located (directed into the aisle, not on the bed). The food is good, there is everything to eat in a varied and delicious way. Of course, there are not as many dishes as in Turkey and Egypt, but they were not hungry. There are not many fruits, there is always watermelon and melon. Towels in the room are changed on request, on the beach daily. The beach is equipped with sun beds and umbrellas, there was always enough, at any time. The pools are clean and comfortable. A small pool with cooling. The location of the hotel is excellent. Near the embankment, amphitheater, 15-20 minutes walk - fountains and shopping center. The hotel has a gas station with a minimarket, which has excellent prices for drinks, ice cream, snacks. The beach is cleaned, there are always two lifeguards. The minus is a construction site near the beach, noise in the morning, near the port - you can also hear it. It's not critical, but if it's not particularly pleasant to find fault, especially when dump trucks arrived at 5 o'clock every evening and dumped stones into the sea - a very dusty moment. At this time, I had to go to the pool. The overall impression is good. 👍
I stayed at this hotel in July 2022.
First, about the advantages:
1) almost all the staff at the hotel are pleasant, polite and ready to help. They helped with any question very quickly and with a smile.
2) The buffet is varied and very tasty
3) the cleaning is high-quality and fast, especially if you know English, then you can always explain exactly what needs to be cleaned
4) the internet is good
5) the restaurant and reception are quite beautiful, the music is pleasant...
6) the masseuses are professional, they work with Phillipine (50% discount for guests)
Despite all the advantages, I probably didn't come here a second time. First of all, it's boring. The rooms are tired and in need of repair. The sound insulation also leaves much to be desired. It's not okay to sleep in the room during the day. Secondly, the sea/ocean is polluted with oil and other debris. And swimming among the garbage and cleaning your heels after every swim is not the most pleasant activity.
It is not clear why lifeguards are sitting on the beach at all. When there were strong waves and people still got into the water, they were thrown / thrown from side to side, and then our heroes came out of the sea with bruises, abrasions and bruises and none of the rescuers even moved to help, or at least to show some kind of participation. But what about the safety of the guests?!
I am generally silent about small sharks and sea urchins, which are found near rocks. Don't swim to the wild beach. There is absolutely nothing to do there. Take care of yourself and your loved ones!
In October 2024, we were vacationing with a friend at this hotel, the pros are a small cozy hotel, the food is normal, you won't stay hungry, if it weren't for the construction site, then the beach and the sea would be cool, but....loaders and an excavator work all day from morning to late evening, they expand the beach, we just can't stand this noise, one day the whole sea was in fuel oil, it was not possible to go into the water, respectively, we lost the day of vacation, we also did not go into the pool, because they brought children from some school to two days, noise, hubbub, bad manners, on top of each other, and the administration says be patient, 2 more days in the minus, and we have a 7-day ticket, towels have never been changed in the room for 7 days, and you can forget about cleaning at all, they went begging for water and all accessories, shampoo, cream, etc., if anyone does not care about it, you can relax, but I do not advise
We are leaving the Oshanik Karfakan Hotel. 4 stars and no more. The location of the hotel is excellent, near the amphitheater, waterfall and Berezhno 9 km away. Rooms with outdated furniture, windows do not open, so humidity, things do not dry, cleaning every day, but if you are 3rd in the room, you have to ask for an extra set all the time. The buffet is not bad, which you can always find here, pasta and potatoes for children are also always there, meat: lamb, chicken, a very good sweet table with dessert, always fruit salad and watermelon separately sliced, oranges and grapefruit. The beach is also very nice, clean, sun beds. We had a rest in early June, it was very hot for us, the water is of course magically warm. I would have returned, most likely yes, since the location is excellent. Either a building or an apartment is being built nearby and the beach is being expanded. The construction site does not interfere, the port, which is also visible, does not interfere either, but it is interesting to observe the ships. It was a birthday, they reminded me at the reception, but they didn't wait for a gift.
I had a vacation in February. Everything is gorgeous and very budget friendly. I took only breakfast and did not regret it. You can get acquainted with the local cuisine in the city.
The sea is perfect, slightly cool, but it's still not the season. Sooo few people swam, which is strange. Basically, the children were sitting in the pool, which, to me, is even hot.
It was very warm, and it was cloudy and raining for a couple of days, but this is not a minus at all. I've never worn a sweater.
Nearby there is a gas station with cheap fast food and a cafe.
It is better to change money at the airport, at the hotel it is not the most profitable course, but if a little, it will go.
I advise you to go to the port - there they will cook freshly caught fish with you.
A small hotel, spacious rooms.
The windows do not open and there is no balcony, and therefore things dry for a long time - this is perhaps the only minus for the entire trip.
Free sauna, sauna, gym with sea view.
"Soap and soap" accessories, mini-bar (tea, coffee, dry cream, sugar, water) are included in the price and replenished daily
A wonderful hotel for a beach holiday. Everything is compact and nearby.
The beach is sandy, you can swim with a mask, watching fish and turtles, exploring the underwater world.
The room has everything you need: an iron, a hairdryer, a kettle and cups, tea accessories, a refrigerator, slippers. There are personal hygiene kits in the bathroom.
The breakfasts are simple, but tasty enough: porridge, soup, pastries, potatoes, sausages, cheeses, fruits, vegetables, olives, etc
. The heated pool is open until 9 pm. there is a hammam, sauna and gym with a gorgeous view of the bay.
In the evening, you can walk along the embankment, near the amphitheater with places for shopping, relaxing and socializing.
A great hotel for a quiet family holiday. Delicious food, sandy beach, polite staff. We just got back from there. For entertainment lovers, you need to go to Dubai, and here the silence, the sea, the sun, is what we wanted. Mostly families with children had a rest. There is a separate swimming pool for children.
We had a family vacation with a child of 7 years old.
Among the advantages: delicious food, no French fries, but real fried and baked potatoes 👍🏻
The sea is clear, emerald transparent, a lot of crabs, which confirms the purity of the sea.
An amazing kids' club, from 10-17 you can safely give the children away.
There is only one minus - a construction site nearby that does not look very aesthetically pleasing and makes noise! I took off the star because of this!
I really liked my vacation in the Oceanika Khorfahan, despite the fact that there is a construction site around. There are no frills in nutrition, but there is always something to please your stomach and mood. The room is clean, but do not hesitate to ask for what you have not been informed (tea, coffee, sugar, water, soap and soap ...) Go to the right of the hotel, you will find a small supermarket near the gas station. If you go left, you will get to a long embankment along which you can walk wonderfully in the evenings and on the way go to a large supermarket Safir, and if you try to walk to the fish market. Although if you are not strapped for money, you can take a taxi (prices are almost like ours), it is better to change dollars for dirhams at the Airport (the exchange rate is more profitable). To all those who gathered in the UAE, have a wonderful holiday!!!
It was in September 2024. The hotel is average, there are no complaints about the food, it is quite diverse, I took breakfasts, cereals, muesli, vegetables, fruits, and many other food. Cleaning every day, tea and coffee set, water, linen change every two days, the staff is very friendly and attentive. There are two Russian-speaking employees at the reception. The hotel does not take a deposit, and the tourist fee. The building itself and the interiors are tired, the plumbing too, could have been better. Minus the poor cleaning of the hall and the worn carpet in the room and lobby. Next!!!! There is a construction site nearby, long-term!!!!apartments are being built. Because of what the constant noise from the construction site is sawing iron, something is being thrown off, and the most disgusting thing is that a watershed is being built on both sides, excavators and tractors rattle and smoke all day, from morning to evening boom boom in the ears!!!! Due to the construction, the beach line was reduced by half, so the concentration of people is very high, as on the beaches of Krasnodar!!!! The beach is fenced with long buoys that are covered with a thick thick layer of bird poop, if you swim closer, there is a stink of bird droppings!!! You can go to the city beach, it is less populated by people, but sometimes you can also hear the hum from the port and the smell of diesel fuel or fuel oil from ships. In my opinion, the place is disposable, the walking area is gorgeous, but there is nothing else to do there. It is suitable for seal recreation, but taking into account the construction site for five years there is nothing to do there!!!!
Great hotel. The price is great. The staff is friendly, everyone is trying their best. The food is delicious. The beach is nice. The construction site nearby is not annoying, sometimes it is interesting to see when you swim in the sea. At the hotel, they change only new dollars at 3.5, at the supermarket they change any dollars at 3.5 at the checkout when calculating.
I recommend it for a relaxing holiday, Sesto is super, we rested with a child, it's quite normal, the only thing that is far from Dubai, 1.20 hours to go. The food is adequate, the beach is gorgeous. Take the desert from the excursions, you will not regret it) cleanliness is normal, the staff is in English except for a couple of people at the reception, rooms like Turkey in size and decor, there are no Russian channels, Wi-Fi is tight. The pool is good, from 1.20. I recommend fishing, we caught it perfectly, the fish are notable. A large grocery store and all sorts of nonsense is 2 km to the left of the hotel, go behind the waterfall, the prices are very good
Clean beach, fine sand, smooth entry into the sea. Sun beds can be found at any time.
A small area, but there is everything for comfort: spa, gym, Wi-Fi, ATM, taxi service, pool bar, mini club, free trips to leather and fur shops.
The pool for adults and children is open until 21:00. Beach towels are provided and changed throughout the day.
The all-inclusive restaurant offers delicious breakfast, lunch and dinner. There is always a variety of dishes, including fish, meat, poultry, several types of side dishes. Of the disadvantages, tea, coffee and other drinks should be asked from the waiters and then wait for them to be brought. Desserts are not varied, but I couldn't refuse puddings. Of the fruits, there was only fruit salad and watermelon - it was clearly out of season.
Drinks and snacks are always available at the bar for an additional fee. According to the all-inclusive system, there are drinks too, you have to ask and ask.
The staff speaks both Russian and English.
The room stock is not new, but the furniture is all in good condition. The room has a flat-screen TV, 4 Russian channels, an iron, an ironing board, a refrigerator, a kettle and a tea and coffee making set, water is provided free of charge when cleaning the room. There are no slippers or bathrobes. There are few hangers in the closet. A big minus is there is no balcony and panoramic windows that do not open. Because of this, there was a humid, stale air in our room, which was very unpleasant. Cleaning of the room is not clear on what schedule, it is definitely not every day. Because of this, we were afraid to throw towels on the floor, and suddenly there would be no cleaning, and we would have to wipe ourselves off the floor. As a result, the towels were never changed for us.
Territory: on the one hand there is a construction site, active 24/7, an apartment building is under construction, on the other hand there is a port. Let's say the views are for an amateur. Important: the hotel is located in Sharjah, where prohibition applies. Alcohol cannot be sold or consumed on the territory of the emirate, including on the territory of the hotel.
A big plus is that next to the hotel there is a beautiful park and a picturesque promenade with jogging and bike paths. There are many shops, restaurants and a shopping mall in the surrounding area. You can buy everything you need at the gas station near the hotel: fruits, an adapter, juice, and basic necessities.
An excellent hotel for a relaxing family holiday, beautiful well-groomed territory, white sand, calm entry into the bay, turtles and beautiful fish swim close to the shore! There is a waterfall and an amphitheater near the hotel! There is a construction site nearby at the moment.
Overall, a comfortable good hotel. The buffet is not very varied, but everything is fresh and delicious. The pool is great. There is one important minus - construction is underway in the area around. And there is also a problem with cleaning. Rarely and poorly cleaned.
It's a good place. If you just exhale. No animations. No complaints. Just to relax. The food is simple, but delicious. Take a dip in the sea. To lie in the sun. To lie down in the room. The staff is excellent. Overall, a solid four. Not in the sense of stardom. In fact.
Great vacation at the end of April. Staff, service, service, food, clean - everything is fine. There is a promenade nearby. You can swim with a mask. Turtles. They clean it every day. A Russian-speaking guy works at the reception.
The hotel is nice and lovely, the food is just fine, not spicy, not salty. Clean apartment. Cleaning every day. Everything is fresh and pleasant. The beach is sand. The sea is gentle and warm. The gentle sun. I liked everything. I'm putting a big plus.
A good hotel, clean rooms, friendly staff, good food, live music in the evenings in the restaurant. Within walking distance of the sea and the pool, there are always free sun beds, a sandy beach, towels for sun beds are available. There is a pleasant promenade next to the hotel, where you can walk and walk to the supermarket. Everything is fine! The only drawback is the construction site next to the hotel. A Euro plug is required to charge the phones. Thanks Anex tour, great professional job!
A family-friendly hotel. Children are bored because there are no aquagorks and animators. It's a pity that there is only one pool. When playing ball in the pool, it often flies into the head of sunbathers nearby. And in general, there are a lot of people in the pool at the same time, it's uncomfortable. The beach is small, but there were enough sunbeds. The entrance to the sea is difficult due to strong waves. Therefore, vacationers prefer to relax by the pool. The food was monotonous, but delicious. There is no comparison with Turkey. It was much better in Turkey. There were no complaints about the maintenance staff. It is written in detail, and everyone will decide whether to go or not
The hotel fully justifies its 4 stars. The staff is friendly, there is a Russian-speaking administrator. The food at the hotel is good, everything is served, we did not go hungry, the only minus for dinner is only water, if you want tea or coffee-for a fee, or in the room. The rooms at the hotel are trying to maintain, everything was functioning, there were no problems. The room has an ironing board, iron and scales)
The hotel offers a free fitness room and a sauna with a hammam. You can use it daily, which is what we did.
Since the hotel is located on the first line of access to the beach immediately from the hotel, you do not need to go anywhere or cross the road. The pool at the hotel is heated to 28-29 degrees, the water is very warm, the children do not get out of there.
The sea is a little cool, it's spring after all, the wind is cool in the evening, it gets dark early. There are animals in the sea to the left of the beach: fish, hedgehogs, turtles. Take the mask.
But there is one big disadvantage associated with our tourists, to occupy sun beds from 7 a.m. and not to appear on the beach for half a day /day is our way. Therefore, now, after breakfast, there are not enough sun beds, the beach is half empty, but towels proudly flaunt on the sun beds. I have not seen this for a long time. There are always free sun beds by the pool.
Outside the hotel there is a long embankment, shops, a waterfall, an amphitheater is being built, there is a place to walk.
In general, I liked the rest.
Great hotel! Good location, warm sea and swimming pool! They cook delicious food! Few people! A relaxing holiday without alcohol and animation! For families with children and those who do not need any movement! Just relax on the beach!
The food is excellent, the beach is good, but the garbage is in the water,the service is 5 points,the location is good, but large barges are unloading in the ocean nearby,the territory is currently all under construction, the rumble,dust flies straight into the pool,one day the ocean was covered with a film of cyrosine,the staff is very nice and courteous,in the rooms It smells musty, the windows don 't open
I liked this hotel, rested in it with children, clean, modern hotel, polite staff. The variety of food is certainly not very large, but we did not stay hungry. Among the entertainment for children there is a children's room with an animator, a trampoline and a playground.
The hotel, the rooms have no complaints at all. The ocean is just magical. The entry into the water is good. Sand. Sweden's strange table. The food is delicious, there is a choice. But at the entrance, each room is marked and how many people came in. We didn't go the second time, but maybe you won't be allowed to eat again. All inclusive except three meals a day, only drinks at the pool bar. The hotel itself is in a pretty town. There is an embankment, shops, catering.
Our unforgettable vacation at @oceanichotel
I really liked everything about the hotel:
🥘 food (always a few types of fish, chicken, beef, each dish distinct taste, awesome desserts, puddings 🤤)
🛏️ room (freshly renovated, private bath 🛁 buzz, and as always, we were on the sea 🌊)
🍭 kids club (the best counselors Julia and Anya - always interesting crafts and tasks, the children enjoyed walking 2 times a day at 11.00 and 15.30 and were 1.5-2 hours! Thanks! It's time for parents to relax, and the children are happy @kidsclub_oceanic )
🏊🏻♀️ swimming pool (open from 7 to 21, there is a ball, a water polo gate)
🏖️ your own private beach (you will always find free sun beds)
🤿 snorkeling (turtles, various fish, sea urchins, cucumbers, crabs), there is also diving at the hotel (45 min 100 dirhams - 2500₽), and also kayaks, jet skis, catamarans 👍🏻
There is something to see in the evening -
across the street from the hotel there is an amphitheater and a waterfall.
There is a long embankment with playgrounds, fountains and beauties nearby.
The only negative is the construction site next to the beach of the hotel 🏗️
Soon there will be an elite residential complex here (scroll through the carousel)
We were not confused by the sound of construction work on the beach, on the contrary, it added a touch of urbanism to a wild vacation.
🇦🇪 The UAE has opened up for us from a completely new perspective: a family vacation in a hotel on the ocean, without the hustle and bustle of the metropolis and attractions listed in the book of records. A kind of paradise on the coast, where winter is like our summer.
We stayed at this hotel in February. It turned out to be a wonderful vacation! We stopped by at night, they offered us dinner for free, treated us to delicious tea and also changed our room with a mountain view overlooking the sea. It's just great! The rest is as relaxing as possible, the sea is excellent, maybe a little cool, but then it's nice to bask in the sun. The massage (190 dirhams) is simply gorgeous, very relaxing. You can change the currency at the hotel, the exchange rate is not very profitable, but also not completely bad. We cleaned the room every day and added bottles of water.
The beach is very clean, cleaned several times a day. It is closed as the sunset begins, so you will not be able to sit enjoying the sunsets. The pool also closes before 21:00. Of the disadvantages, breakfasts and dinners are not at all diverse, they are the same every day. And wifi does not work well in the room, the sea has its own wifi with a password.
KFC and Hardee's are across the street (you can eat burgers). Everything you need is in the store at the gas station (2 minutes from the hotel), but there is not enough fruit, we saw only apples and mangoes. The nearest cafes (Starbucks) are about a 30-minute walk from the hotel along the beautiful promenade. Lebanese and Thai cuisine can also be enjoyed there.
If you want to relax and enjoy the sound of the waves, you are definitely here.
A great place for a beach holiday. The cuisine is excellent and varied. We took everything inclusive, because only KFC and fast food are nearby. The construction of a new hotel in the immediate vicinity does not spoil the impression of a holiday. The entrance to the sea is sandy. The bottom is flat and comfortable. The bottom is rocky near the mountains. Not only fish swim there, but also turtles. Now at 18.12 the temperature is comfortable 25-30, the wind is only warm. It's warm in the evening, we walk in T-shirts. A very pleasant promenade along the shore starts from the hotel. There is a very beautiful amphitheater and waterfall not far from the hotel. At the top of the mountain is the palace of the local emir. There is a separate bike path and a jogging track on the embankment. After 10-15 minutes of walking, shops and cafes begin, but they are located across the road, which can be crossed by rare pedestrian crossings. Just across the street, in the courtyards, opposite the fast food trailers behind the building with bank offices, there is a good supermarket with clothes, shoes, electronics, toys, dishes, cosmetics, suitcases and food. Further along the embankment there are football boxes, tennis boxes and playgrounds for kids. Every 200-300 meters there are toilets, very decent for street people. On the right, again across the street, there is the Karfokan Museum of Local Lore. At the end of the embankment there is a wooden ship and small vegetable and fish markets
A great hotel for a relaxing holiday. Delicious food. The sea is nearby, warm and calm. The only thing missing was the dryers. There are no balconies, and the bathroom dries for a long time. What surprised me was the presence of an ironing board and an iron in the room. There is Internet both near the building and in the room, but it is slow. We were satisfied with the rest.
We had a vacation in July 2024 with my mother. We liked the hotel. We were given a room on the top floor with a beautiful view of the sea . The gym is also an amazing view , it 's a pleasure to practice . The food is not bad, you can always choose something. The only trouble with cleaning is that you have to constantly pull the reception desk- ask
Great. It's a great hotel, the rooms are spacious. The staff is also nice and friendly - it is clear that this is a regulation, but kindness comes from them. The beach is great. The food is certainly not Egypt and Turkey, but there is enough of everything.
