Beach Hotels & Resorts in Aqaba from NZ$99

"The food was excellent, and the staff were exceptionally warm, friendly, and professional — especially Ega from the restaurant and Maryam at reception. I would also like to highlight Star Tabarak, who works in the PlayStation area. My kids absolutely fell in love with her — she is truly magnificent, knowledgeable, and caring."

"The breakfast buffet was rich and varied, with options for all. Bed comfort was exceptional; mattress and pillows were tip-top. Noise levels for the beach parties were at times too high, and ran late, so a minor inconvenience if children are present. "

"The hotel is really fabulous. Second time there and we’ll return. The room is spacious and magnificent all white clean design. The food vey extremely good and tasty - We had half board deal and the service is beyond percept. We were upgraded to Panoramic rooms - highly Recommend - just 50 meters for the water line. Can hear the sound of the waves all night long. Pros: Everything: rooms, beach, pools, food, location and especially service and hospitality. They really interested and taking care of you"

"Whilst this property has a few things that would benefit from tidying up, or modernising, and the dining options are limited, it is the team themselves who make this a great stay and a really good, reasonably priced, conveniently situated hotel in Aqaba. The team at this hotel, and especially the management, are well spoken, polite, supportive, and prepared to go every extra mile that they can to support their guests. There is a good level of English language spoken for non-Arabic speakers, and every action is focused on providing comfort and support wherever possible. For higher prices, there are invariably more glamorous choices in Aqaba, but these are often noisy, and hectic, with little time for individual focus. At the Oryx, every guest was the focus, treated like friends visiting rather than people passing through. Nothing was too much trouble, and I would happily recommend it as a terrific reasonably priced option for a stay in the area."

"Breakfast was great. No complaints"

"This was one of the best resorts we have ever stayed at. The facilities are clean, outdoor pools are large and the private beach makes all the difference. Breakfast was also delicious and the staff make sure you are looked after well. Specific mention to Saddad at the front desk who looked after us and gave us a really high level of service. I don’t have any criticism only that there isn’t an indoor pool, and the gym is slightly more dated but still runs well. "
