BUT the following info may have helped our expectations on arrival; all drinks are served in very small plastic Pepsi cups... that's ALL drinks beer water spirits etc. No glasses... More

We stayed here during Christmas and had a great time. The resort was clean and well maintained. Most of the tourist were either Italian or Russian. Food was good especially in Grill Bar but sometimes got boring as they had pasta and pizza selection everyday. It was also shame that they served local food only one night.The coral reefs in... More

We went here the second time with our family. Not much changed what we saw 3 years ago, if not some stone arrangements at the beach to build a new facility. This resort is ideal for families with children, as having more pools and fantastic beach with coral reefs. Ships with divers and snorkellers anchor in this bay, probably this... More

We've checked initially for 4 night, thought will be OK. What they did not say when we checked in was that there was no room service, no available items in the minibar, so we couldn't even find a bottle of water to drink. We had half board (b-fast and dinner) so for lunch we had to call Mc Donalds delivery... More

We went twice to El Faraana Reef Resort and I would not mind to go there again. This hotel is special! If you are in a room with a sea-view it is amazing experience of the sea and the desert, with a view to the distant islands. Some sea-view rooms are in the "old part" so they are tired, but......
