Our experience in the pools was really great. Big thanks for Ibrahim ghnaimat who provided me with tips and exercises when I hurt my shoulder while swimming. He kept asking about my situation to make sure that I am getting good time, to not lose my vacation and relaxing opportunity. Nawasra as well who treated us in a good manner. Mohammad on the receiption who facilitated our check out and other requirements. For the room cleaning, unfortunately they didn't fill the hiegyne and vanity material the second day. In all our experience was great.

We had a fantastic stay. Originally booked a different hotel but the staff was so awful that we decided to look for a different place. This resort turned out to be within our budget that night. From the minute we stepped in we were in love. The valet service, the check in, restaurant staff, even the sindbad staff (water excursions) were absolutely top notch. Hudson is the kindest person we came across while traveling thru Jordan. She made our stay unforgettable. Kind, professional, thoughtful and great with kids - my son is in love with her! Our valet - Balal was the best. He helped us with luggage, made sure we had water for the road and gave us great suggestions for Wadi Rum excursion. We felt so welcomed, it was difficult to leave!

Sheer luxury and so relaxing . We had three nights here after a very busy organised tour of Jordan by coach. The hotel was just what we needed to relax and unwind , the pool and private beach are both clean and comfortable. Really appreciated the little extras, like bringing round a tray of fruit skewers one day, another day little vanilla ice creams. The hotel staff were so attentive and the breakfast buffet amazing. Have to say I for one couldn’t face champagne at that time of day, but appreciate the offer ! Treat yourself to a little luxury …

This has to be one of the best, if not the best, hotels I have ever stayed at in the world. The level of service is superior in every aspect from security, check in, concierge, house keeping, pool, bar, etc. We felt welcomed, appreciated and taken care of for the entire stay. The room was fantastic with incredible views. Bathroom amenities were of very high quality. The pool is amazing and the beach is as well. There are towels and chairs/umbrellas provided. We ate at the restaurant twice and it was very good and we went into town for some shopping. Out stay in Aqaba was excellent.

We have just returned from our trip to Jordan which we ended up staying at the Kempinski. We were wonderfully received. Already at the reception we were warmly welcomed by Mrs. Huda. In the evening we were served perfectly by Justine in the roof bar with a great city view. All organizational matters were taken care of by Sham.
