BRICKWOOD GANDUVARU

This place is amazing!! The villa is spacious, clean, with a kitchen, two bathrooms, and its own courtyard. To get full board for this price is simply fantastic!!! The waiters at the restaurant are polite and very pleasant guys! The tuna sandwiches are incomparable! And when we'd had enough of rice and noodles, we asked them to prepare chicken soup for us, and to our surprise, they made us delicious soups, as well as omelets, salads, and so on. Highly recommend!!

Clean and tidy, and the breakfast was great. The hotel's food and beverage credit (FB) was fantastic; we had a 300 dirham credit and could order anything we wanted. Two of us ate until we were stuffed. I highly recommend the beef sandwich – it was delicious!

The room is very basic. Nothing extra. An outdoor shower. Drinking water is readily available. A kettle is in the shared kitchen. There is none in the room. The guys met us at the pier, saw us off, arranged a transfer to the speedboat, and offered a variety of excursions. The cost is high; the average price for one excursion is $80. The simplest excursion is 10 minutes on a boat, 2 hours on a sandbar, and back for $15 per person. We didn't get any excursions; there was a lot of back-and-forth, but in reality, they didn't have enough room for a group, and they didn't even want to take us on our own for $90. The breakfasts are good, there's a selection: tuna, eggs, toast, sausages, flatbreads, pancakes, fruit (watermelon, orange). Coffee is only instant tea bags.

The hotel has been renovated and expanded. It can be a bit noisy on some days (depending on the parties at the neighboring venues). Breakfast is excellent, and the staff is incredibly friendly. It's located right on Bikini Beach, so you can walk straight from your hotel room to the beach in your swimwear. The food at the hotel is also highly recommended!
