International
The main buffet restaurant handling breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Breakfast draws consistent praise — fresh, varied, and well-prepared. Dinner quality is more inconsistent, with guest complaints about over-spiced dishes and themed nights that don't always deliver on their concept. The default dining space for most meals.
Signature dishes: Best of national and international cuisines, Themed nights selections
Bar menu, Snacks
Bar in name — in practice serves non-alcoholic beverages and soft drinks given the dry hotel policy. Functions more as a casual lounge with sports screen access than a traditional bar experience.
Signature dishes: Refreshing snacks, Fresh fruit cocktails
Light snacks and beverages
Poolside drinks service covering the all-inclusive non-alcoholic beverage menu. Convenient for staying hydrated at the pool. Standard soft drinks, juices, and mocktails.
Mediterranean, Seafood, Middle Eastern Grills
The property's signature restaurant, also operating as a beach club venue. À la carte menu with international selections. Some charges apply here even for all-inclusive guests — confirm what's covered at check-in before ordering. The beach club setting makes it the most atmospheric dining option on property.
Signature dishes: Grilled specialties, Fresh salads, Beachfront mocktails, BBQ food, Sandwiches, Delicious desserts
Café fare, Desserts, Sandwiches
Café setting for lighter meals, snacks, and non-alcoholic drinks. Good for a midday break without committing to the full buffet. Works as a casual in-between-meal option.
Signature dishes: Coffees, Various flavors of ice cream, Cakes, Waffles, Pancakes, Sandwiches, Non-alcoholic fresh fruit cocktails
