Nice Hotel with very friendly staff. Parking lot for rental cars, clean rooms, very delicious breakfast and stunning sunset at the private beach! Highlight was the snorkeling at the private riff in front of the hotel.

Excellent resort with all the facilities you need. Extremely friendly and helpful staff. Especially Ibrahim went out of his way to help us with gluten free options for breakfast. Thank you so much!

We got dinner and we thought that we would have charged at the end and we didn't know that we were supposed to pay straight away, so we left and knocked our room with the card machine to ask you to pay.I found it a bit rude as of course we wanted to pay but I was expecting another way to communicate it in an hotel of that level.

The only comment we had is that meals are somehow overpriced. But understandably those are private resort rates. The resort is also quite a drive from downtown Aqaba (around 30 minutes) and with no Ubers and quite pricey taxi costs, staying in and enjoying all the facilities in the resort is the best option.

Everything you need for a relaxing and calm break is in Luxotel. My husband and I stayed for 3 nights, we did not leave the resort once. The room was spacious and comfy. Breakfast was rich and diverse and has heathy options. Staff was really nice, they even upgraded us for free to a garden & seaview room and provided hot drinks on the house more than once. The Red Sea is just mesmerizing and you have excellent access to it. We did the couple massage full package and Shahd (the masseuse) was amazing, her hands are magic. Everything was great!

The friendlyness and helpfullness of all people here at the hotel. From the moment we walked in, and I was sick, they arranged everything for us. Special thanks to Svetlana and here team. They made a room ready for us, so we could check in directly. A beautiful room with seaview. Also the staff of the restaurant was amazing. They brought toast and tea to our room. The hotel is not too big and it is adults only, what is also an advantage. The food in the restaurant is also very good, a wide variety of dishes. Also a la carte eating is possible. The pool area is very comfortable and also the beds near the sea looks nice. You can snorkel here, surprised to see so many fish and beautiful coral, and there is also a diving center at the hotel: Royal Diving Club So, even when you are not sick, this hotel is paradise!

The restaurant for breakfast and evening buffet was excellent. Very fresh and delicious vegetables and beautiful cooked meats. The staff are attentive and really friendly. The swimming in the sea on the private beach with corals and lots of species of colourful fish was wonderful. There is also a scuba club and a nice fresh swimming pool. The sea view from our room on the second floor was beautiful. We enjoyed the company of the resident cats at breakfast!

Wish food better... plentiful, but would be nicer with upscale restaurant.

Great friendly staff. Snorkeling right at beach. Rated 4 but 4.5 more accurate.

The staff were amazing, always smiling and welcoming, professional and friendly at the same time. The room was really clean, the beds sooooo comfy, everything needed was in the bathroom from towels to toiletries, to hair dryer... It's lovely to have that easy access to the beach, the pool, the jacuzzi. The breakfast is wonderful and generous, a delight for the eyes and mouth! You can even pay for a great buffet dinner with a wide variety of national and international dishes. And if you're a fan of spa or would like to try it, don't miss it! Shahed the masseuse is a real pro!

Unfortunately we were constantly asked whether we had lodged a credit card at reception when we ordered anything. For a place we were paying a lot of money to stay in, this was a bit annoying.

We loved the relaxed atmosphere and open policy on bringing your own drinks while maintaining their dry hotel policy. The place was well maintained, clean and the staff were great.

Perfect size for a few days of relaxing post road trip The beach is a good size and the reef just off the beach is in excellent condition. Plenty of loungers. Buffets excellent. Staff attentive and always cheerful. We liked the fact it was not in Aqaba. Great sunsets. Pool or beach areas to relax by and good swimming. We didn’t leave for 5 nights and felt totally relaxed by the end. If you are an independent traveller/self driving as we were this was an oasis of calm at the end of a hectic 6 days sightseeing. The private beach made all the difference. Compared to the large, faceless resort hotels in Aqaba this sort of place gets our vote every time. Bring your own snorkels. Flippers not needed. Reef shoes not needed.

This resort is absolutely perfect and everything you are looking for. It is so clean, quiet and welcoming. The staff is so kind and helpful. The rooms were very very comfortable and clean, and perfect to relax. There even was a free minibar. The facilities were great too. The pool was beautiful, big and clean. The beds near the pool and at the (private) beach were so comfortable and it wasn't too crowded even though the resort was fully booked while we were staying there. We absolutely loved the private beach at the resort with the possibility to go diving and/or snorkling, with a beautiful piece of coral with so many tropical fishes. That was a highlight for us. The resort is situated a bit away from Aqaba centre (20 min ride), which was actually a plus for us. That made the resort very calm and quiet, with enough to do (there is also a spa where they offer great massages). Also, you don't need to leave the resort since you can eat/drink everything there. You can't order alcoholic drinks, which we now and also wasn't a problem since you can bring your own drinks. Overall, it was the most calm and perfect stay for us!

Honestly, there is nothing I didn't like about my stay. The only advice or warning I could tell you is to bring you own snorkeling equipment for they charge a efty price (10jd for 3hrs) for rental at the diving center. Also, the hotel is 20 min drive from Aqaba, so if you don't have you own car, you will have to wait about 30 min for a cab (7jd) to go to town.

Fantastic hotel: the staff is very attentive and helpful. The room and facilities are modern and clean. The food at the buffet is very good and varied, lots of tasty choices for vegetarians and non vegetarians alike.The location is awesome : we really enjoyed the beach and its coral reef with a wide variety of fishes 🐟 , the corals are not as colorful as we would hope for but given it's a few feet from the shore, it's not surprising, it is nonetheless quite enjoyable for the sheer sizes of the corals ( large and numerous) and the number of fishes who inhabit it... every time we went in with our snorkeling equipment, we discovered new things. There is also the Royal diving center in the hotel which offers a variety of outings and lessons for those who like diving. We only did snorkeling and it was a really fun and satisfying experience. We stayed 3 nights during high season and there was plenty of space for everyone (full hotel) at the pool or on the beach. We will definitely come back here.

There was nothing g to dislike.

Extremely friendly staff, beautiful and very clean resort, lots of facilities, spacious and modern room and good food. The resort is not too big, giving a lively yet quiet/relaxed vibe. Definitely recommend for a few days of relaxing along the coast.

The location is remote and needs 20 mins ride to town if we wish to have meals outside the Hotel. There is nothing much we can do except chill at the beach or poolside. The Property is quite small, and the occupancy is quite high during our stay, so the poolside is packed. The beach is very rocky and there are not many corals, just some fishes, we got bored after a short snorkel.

The facilities (especially swimming pool) is great. The staff are friendly and ever ready to help. Our rooms faced the sea, and the view is beautiful.
