This place is just like any Oberoi hotel. Fantastic service and the location is perfect for a quiet getaway. The rooms are surrounded by greenery and you can hear the waves from the beach if you stay in one of the large villas.
Hands down, the best part of this place is the amazing staff who go out of their way to accommodate you. If you have any dietary requirements, they always try and accommodate your requests. Have been here twice, and I do recommend staying in the villas if possible, but the rooms are great as well.

Really nice hotel, with loads of greenery. Rooms are beautiful, spacious and very calming.
The pool is nice and big.
The food however is a letdown. Both dinner and breakfast were extremely poor, we were a table of 8 and one of enjoyed either meals.

Amazing location if you want to listen to the wind and birds. The service is just extraordinary, way above the best. The 85m pool is spectacular. Great choice for a few days. My only point of improvement: A/C at max 23 degrees was too cold for me. I missed an extra 2 degrees. Also, seawater is not really clean compared to the turquoise water of Abu Dhabi but there is nothing you can do I’m afraid.

Absolutely lovely experience!
Pros:
1. We stayed at the deluxe room with garden(no need to overpay, you can stay at std room with garden, because all you get is a bonus corridor and a small terrace overlooking the green fence). Great room, plenty of space, high ceilings, bathtub and a shower, floor-to-ceiling windows, etc.
2. Dining. For breakfast you have a-la-carte menu, but the staff is able to fulfill almost any request. You can say, that the breakfast menu is not the largest , but we’ve always found something to try out. For lunch and dinner, there is also a menu, with ample options. Loved it.
3. The pool. 85m long, good temperature, plenty of space for the guests.
4. Territory. The thing is, it is very quiet. The resort was full of guests, but when you are walking around in the evening, you get a feeling, that there is almost nobody else around. If you are looking for some action, this is not the space for you.
5. The staff. Superb. No way to put it otherwise. Always smiling, always eager to help. They do everything in their power to make your stay perfect.
Cons:
1. The only thing I can say, it is the beach. Not even the beach itself, but the entry to the sea. Rocks, with abrupt descent. Not the most convenient, especially with children. But the pool compensates this. But again - if you are looking for the beach and sea, you might have some inconveniences.

Highly recommended. This resort feels very different to Dubai, it is quiet and very restful place to visit. The staff are very attentive and pleasant to be with.
Great dining options in both Aquario and Vinesse. Cocktail bar was small but good to have a quiet drink. One of the highlights is the art library where you can read their books and have a quiet coffee.
Very happy with our stay and will be heading back soon for another visit.
