Really good Culinary Experience

“During my stay, I had the pleasure of enjoying the diverse dining options available at the resort. The food at Al Tanoor and Chow Mee was really good, with a high quality that truly elevated our dining experience. I was especially enamored with the breakfast offerings, particularly the Indian station where the chefs prepared good dosas. Every meal felt like a feast, and I appreciate the effort made to cater to different tastes.” view full review
