Honest review
What could be better
- —The hotel should diversify its dining menus, particularly at Musandam, to provide more creative and substantial plant-based dishes for long-stay guests and vegetarians.
- —Management needs to ensure consistent service training so that all guests—regardless of membership tier—receive a warm greeting and attentive care at every restaurant.
- —The property should refine its room assignment process for Elite members to ensure they are prioritized for better views rather than being placed in rooms overlooking service areas or construction.
