This is definitely a beautiful hotel. But the reason I'm recommending it is because of one of their restaurants, Akira Back, which is located in this hotel. The restaurant itself is very beautiful and intimate making it a perfect place for a romantic date night. If you're sitting on the patio area, the view overlooking is stunning as you can see The Palm. The food itself is really good as well. I would recommend you try a variety of items from their menu such as, the calamari, the carpaccio, and the sushi, of course. You MUST try their tacos! This is definitely fine dining so expect to pay a hefty sum, however, you can get a discount on your bill if you have the Careem app!

I had a really great time here with my friends. It's not a hotel but more of a complex where you can rent out an apartment and each complex has a huge swimming pool. There's no staff or restaurants in the complex itself, however, the nearby beaches are a 5 - 10 min walk depending on which beach you would like to go to. The supermarket is also a 5 minute walk. Abu Tig Marina is a 5 minute TukTuk ride and downtown is about an 8 minute ride. It's definitely budget friendly as well depending on the apartment you choose.

I LOVE the aesthetics of this hotel! It's like a mix between modern and boho chic! It's an all inclusive package so we got access to all of their restaurants as well as their bar. The beach was lovely but we mostly enjoyed the connected rooms as well as our pool! We booked the swim-up suite and it was absolutely worth it! It was basically like your own private pool. The food was decent and room service was an extra charge. It's also not that far from the airport which is great. But bare in mind that you'll mostly be just in the resort.
