We stayed at this hotel from May 2 to May 9 2023 Family of 3 adults and 2 children. ROOOMS We arrived at around 8pm. Check in was quick and we were taken to our 2 rooms in block I. As shown in attached pictures, the rooms are spacious but old - curtains dirty and falling off, window joints falling off, old and dirty AC units. One of our rooms had no towels but this was quickly rectified after calling reception. In the same room AC was not working well but also fixed rather quickly after reporting the issue. I feel like we did not get what we had booked: - one room was had booked for 3 (adult and 2 kids this was clearly indicated in our booking voucher) and it only had 2 beds, we had to request additional bed which was brought in but on the floor. - the other room we had paid for sea view but the one we had clearly wasn't. When my husband brought this up with reception at first they said we hadn't booked sea view but after checking our booking voucher and realising their mistake what we were offered in compensation was a late checkout (2 hours, 2pm instead of 12pm) in one room only on our last day plus possiblility to have lunch on our last day... I don't feel that this compensates the extra cost for a week's worth of sea view room. One room had bedsheets and light blankets, the other just a bedsheet. Supplies are very basic - blue soap in dispenser (we used our own as this soap is quite harsh on skin) - plastic shower cap - small box with cotton pad and cotton tips Cleaning is OK. Lots of mosquitos. In late afternoon, when showering after a day at the pool/beach sometime no hot water or no water at all in shower. Quality of TV is a disaster. Air conditioning old and noisy. FOOD AND BEVERAGE The food in the main restaurant is good, the chef and his team really work hard to propose a varied and tasty menu. However service needs to be improved. Feels like a canteen/military mess, service is rushed, as soon as your plate is empty it's taken away with cutlery. Drinks served in tiny plastic cups for main meals. Wine served in soda glasses instead of wine glasses except one day, our last lunch on May 9th 2023, where we were pleasantly surprised and served wine in wine glasses and there were no plastic cups but actual glass glasses (but on this specific day there were tour operators representatives on site so I suspect they were trying to give a good impression) We did not try the à la carte restaurants so can't give a review. Drinks at pool and beach are served in tiny plastic cups with plastic straws . I can't imagine the amount of trash this generates and plastic straws have been banned in many countries. Seems ironic to be using that much plastic next to a coral reef. Basic/limited choices of very sugary drinks or water. Cokcktails are average. Snacks at beach bar only 2 choices: fries or slices of pizza. POOL AND BEACH Pools are OK, relatively clean. The furniture wooden lounge beds: old, some of them are broken and need to be replaced. Beach towels can be picked up at a counter, they do not look very clean, several times we got new/fresh beach towels with stains on them. Music at main pool is a bit loud, would be nice to turn it down a bit. SPA The spa is really good. Each of us (3 adults) booked 2 massages, at first they quote price of 70 to 90 euros per massage depending on what you chose but immediately offer a "2 for the price of 1" deal so I suspect the real price is actually half of what initially quoted. The quality of massages was good. OTHER Could not use the gym, the room was being renovated/painted and gym equipment was stacked in a corner of kids play area. WiFi only in lobby area, we knew about this before booking. There is a Vodafone counter selling 4G sim cards (suspect it's a bit of a bootleg operation) we got 9GB for 20 euros and it worked well. People selling extra sevices/activities/excursions can be a bit intrusive and annoying. If you arethe type that likes animation, animation is below average. Bottom line: if you go there expecting 4 star service and facilities, you will be disappointed.…

I would rate my stay at the Blend Elphistone Hotel as excellent. I spent a very good time there with my fiancée. Our room was well maintained, it was cleaned every day, water in bottles was refilled as soon as it was missing. The food in the hotel was delicious and varied. We could count on a variety of meals every day, with everything tasting very good, from main courses to desserts. The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful to us. Their diligence and kindness to each guest cannot be denied. A big plus for Sabry, who helped us to organise a trip to the neighbouring beach. He is a good-hearted man with whom guests have a very good contact. The right man in the right place who cares about the different needs of guests and always tries to help. Another praise for the waiters, including Mohamed, visible in the photo, who always smilingly greeted us at breakfast and said goodbye at dinner. A very friendly waiter, high praise for his approach to guests. The other waiters were also up to standard. Everyone was friendly to us, we could not really complain about anything. There was also a waiter whose name I unfortunately did not know, but he showed various 'magic' tricks at the table that entertained us and other guests. The hotel has swimming pools, at which there is a bar. In this bar we can count on good drinks. The hotel also has a private beach, which was always well maintained. There is a bar by the beach where the bartender made delicious drinks that were impressive. There is also a snack bar by the beach, such as pizza, fries or sandwiches. These were tasty, a good meal between lunch and dinner. Mr. Rady, the cook who served at the snack bar, also ran a burger restaurant in the evenings. He and waiter Mohamed took good care of me and my fiancée, so we ate delicious burgers and were well served. The hotel also has a pier by the beach that leads to a wonderful coral reef. I would recommend this hotel to anyone, we would love to go there again.…
