Family visit end of October for a week - had an absolutely fantastic time. Transfers from Dubai very straightforward and no drama crossing the border. The drive over the mountains is very dramatic! The resort itself is pristine, public areas are very well maintained. Very family friendly, most people were there with kids from what we saw. We had a pool villa, I think just the standard room, but it's very spacious with a large outdoor space and lovely pool. We were asked if we wanted to upgrade to a beachfront villa but I really didn't think it was worth it. The room itself was spotless and well looked after, most morning it was tidied before we were even back from breakfast. I've seen some criticism that the rooms are a bit dated and it's true that some minor things like electrical fittings might be in need of updating (there are no USB ports for example) but I really think that's secondary. The room (indeed the whole resort) is meant to have a rustic feel - this isn't Dubai. Service was consistently excellent. People are always offering to help or asking if you need anything. Sanjana our guest experience manager was super helpful and always available to answer queries and make bookings etc. Great kids club which my son loved - you can just come and go whenever, no need to book or anything like that. The food is really good, especially breakfast, where there is a great choice. As many people have mentioned here, the food and drink (especially alcohol) is very expensive, so I think half board is a must. Also, annoyingly they add tax and service on to everything at the end, so you end up paying 22% more than the prices shown. Some of the 'event' dinners on the beach carry hefty surcharges even if you're on half board, and while the food and choice is great, it can be eye-watering. My advice is to go mentally prepared for a chunky bill at the end and factor it in to your budget. Final tip - do the sustainability tour if you're interested to see 'behind the scenes' of a place like this - how it's run etc. We thought it was fascinating.

Wow wow wow what a remarkable stay. We don’t know where to start with how spectacular our stay was. This is our third time here and my mums second time and we left with happy tears. We wish we could mention every single member from the Zighy Bay team for making our stay so special. However, our review would then just be a long list of names. As returning guests we noticed changes, in the food and beverage and care that we received. The staff were insightful and were able to heighten our experience. Chef Hassan and Faseeh and their team were exceptional. Their manner and their affable approach is something magical. This is reflective in the whole team throughout all the service we experienced. The breakfast team. Lorna, Fell, and the three sisters (they know who we mean) were superstars! Mohan - a truly wonderful man. Thank you for looking after us. Our gem Sherif - the most delightful man with a beautiful smile. You are truly amazing 🙏🏽 Our house keeping ‘Suomid’ the most clean and gorgeous room servicing. We wish we could take you home with us. Your sweet smile. Thank you to Promod, Nitesh, all the staff at front of house. Julia…your smile and grace and made us super happy from check-in. Daniela and your team at summer house. Massages in the spa were the best ever. Thank you to Natalie, Nikolas, wow the trigger therapy and knowledge of anatomy was second to none. My husband loved it! Special thanks to Arun, Khalid, Stephanie, Malith and Chamouli. Finally we would like to thank the most beautiful Diletta - who keeps all the staff so happy and smiling. You are a superstar! Thank you and see you all soon at your paradise. Sorry if we have missed anyone out. Neda, Yas & Dinka ❤️
