Reviews for Lagoon Hotel & Resort
Review 1:Please note that we visited the property in Jan/2016, in the Winter, and there were only few people in the Hotel. - There is no water hose in the bathroom (Shattaf) - The AC was locked on heating mode only and can't be changed even when asked the room service to. - There is an inner laws that are not written in Booking.com such as ( you can not take with you any kind of food or drink to the inside of the hotel, even if it's in your luggage, and YES there is a security checkpoint in the entrance where they check your luggage for illegal stuff and apparently FOOD o.o ) BUT we took some water bottles and snacks and they say nothing. - In the room there is no (paper tissue, glasses, Nescafe, Tea or Kettle (for boiling water) ) - The Staff is really friendly BUT still need a lot of training to be professional and the hotel need to increase the number of the staff. - The "Don't Disturb - Clean my room" buttons were broken and not working, therefore they are meaningless, I pressed the Don't Disturb, but I was surprised by the Housekeeping trying to enter the room. - The bed was in terrible shape it need to be replaced - There were a lot of flies and a bad smell of sheep!! - The breakfast is BAD, few items, the cheese was old, the hummus is not hummus ! the containers of juice needs to be cleaned... I don't give me it more than 2 Stars at Best (For Arab People,I uploaded 2 picture with positive and Negative points للأخوة العرب أرفقت صورتين فيهم النقاط الايجابية والسلبية )

Review 10:Family atmosphere no push of drunk geeks
Review 11:The place is perfect for family tourism. The kids will love it. You expect a gang of kids running around but this should be expected in a family entertainment place. Breakfast is perfect. Lunch is fine. I only one unfortunate thing happened is that my little kid . . broke a plate of glass on the Como
Review 12:Separation of families. Families can NOT stay together to enjoy vacation together !!!!! Never seen anything like this in my life. How can you enjoy vacation as a family if separated from your wife and children??
Review 13:Nothing
Review 14:Services are not good enought Facilities not maintained well Most of Employees are not friendly, they do not smile. Rooms are not equipped with some standard staff This is the first time ever during my stay in hotels in many countries that security and supervisors disallow any kind of food orders from outside. Mixing room's guest with others who come only during the day in all areas make some guests feel uncomfortable, specially areas next to rooms
Review 15:1- Open buffet should include drinks, coffee, and juice. 2- Room should include daily self service tea and coffee bags. 3- Room should include daily drinking bottled water.
Review 16:Lots of things
Review 17:Everything is very horrible , the staff are unproffesional , the place is a religious place and the pool for women is very dirty , i bought and icecream that was expired , the breakfast is a 2 hotel breakfast its awful there is no hot water in the showers or a water kettle in the room or tissues , i do not recommend it at all .
Review 18:The place is big
Review 19:Everything. It should be listed that the hotel is a religious hotel and kids above the age of 8 are not allowed to swim with heir mom's. Food was really bad and the service was worse. It's written in the hotel rules but seriously whi is going to check hotel rules of 5 stars hotel. I barely give it 2 stars.
Review 20:The food had no taste at all excellent variation but no taste at all. Pls I love the place but these small touches makes a big difference . Thanks again for management .
Review 21:I liked the separation ideas as it great men's alone and women alone . But smoking habits where the majority littering on floor & and the kids peeing in pool. Very disscusting .
Review 22:No proper maintenance for locker and changing rooms as most door locks are broken. Water in swimming pools not well filtered/treated.
Review 23:Overall cleanliness is good. Restaurant is good but too expensive. Rooms good but beds and curtains need some maintenance. AC is not cool enough.
Review 24:1-The room was Rubbish.There was NO towels and the mini bar was empty.They threw 2 bottles of water to us like a refugee. 2- The idea of not leting your kids to use the mans pool was horrible.Keep arguing with the staff to swim with my young daughter as I couldn't let her swim by her own in ladies pool 3-The food was expensive.
Review 25:Pools are nice and the entertainments.
Review 26:Would be great to have more activities for evenings. The food was not as expected wider choice needed. Hope to have more choices of beverages as herbal teas and american coffee. I would like to see price menues in the rooms it self for room orders will be great
Review 27:Loved the resort, clean the staff very friendly, rooms very comfy, the pools are very clean. Will go again and again for sure.
Review 28:- Support from the staff, I had to call the reception five times (including a visit) asking them to provide me with sheets and pillows. Eventually and after more than one hour the guy showed up with the sheets without the pillows (I booked two rooms). - The prices to have lunch/dinner at the restaurant don't worth the quality of food. Some dishes were left empty.

Review 56:The breakfast was nice and the restaurant was clean , the staff there friendly, the receptionists very friendly
Review 57:there was many contractions going on when we were there and some facilities that was closed
Review 58:i loved the privacy for family and the good treatment by the staff
Review 59:I have never got ground floor . The water was cold in the little kids' pool.You can add more games for both males females. Though I left your place happy. Thanks to every person there.Wish to see you soon.
Review 60:I like the way the staff dealt with my family and my kids.Also the breakfast .I was happy to see my kids eating "which is a big problem to me" your food variety suited adults and kids.
Review 61:Hotel farnature is old, hotel is not more than 3+ stars
Review 62:Very good place for families , the best swimming pool for women in country,breakfast is 5 stars level .
Review 63:Having electronic devices confiscated, attitude of Ladies Kingdom staff, value for money.
Review 64:The view from the hotel, the attitude of management, the food.
Review 65:breakfast needs to be earlier, 7.30 a bit last for me loud music on Friday nights
Review 66:Pool and swimming/ activities for children, breakfast good, pool snack bar good prices, staff fantastic
Review 67:very poor choices of food at breakfast buffet and only one table for a lot of people. when we saw the clowns we thought that they really care for kids but they are not serving any corn flex or even a little pancakes for them. no more omlet chefs for 3 visits.very crowded at weekends and all gather at water slides area. there must be more water slides on other sides of the hotel. very pricey hotel for its value, but the crowds makes it that expensive. lagoon is useless.so I think a better hotel or resort with more water slides can take over these crowds. then that would make the lagoon hotel only good for one thing (the woman private area).
Review 68:nice and helpful reception staff especially the girls, the day I arrived they had clowns gifting balloons at the reception for kids. kids areas are nice. water slides are good. excellent view of the lagoon. woman private side. tent mosque.
Review 69:They have no idea about quality control and this I beleive because ofbad management and not following the restricted international standards.In direct words its agood example for arabic bad management. Why,because th new nice buildings with this lack of service and bad staffwill be concerted to bad place very soon
Review 70:Its nice new buildings and facilities
Review 71:the pool was dirty there should be more control on what should the children wear while swimming and the ladies too
Review 72:it's a place where ladies can swim and be comfortable
Review 73:Hot and humide. The resort management needs to take care of cleaning a bit more, the towels smelled bad sometimes. Also for people who are reserving rooms they should allow for some snacks and juice espcially for kids.
Review 74:Lovely place with a big artificial lake, family-friendly place, culturally acceptable and a place of joy. Children play areas and special ladies area. Water games. I spent there three days and I enjoyed it so much.
Review 75:It's was supposed to be a five star hotel !!! In my opinion it's s two star hotel or less regarding rooms , towels , cleanness, food,! Ladies swimming pools was unclean ! Public toilets were filthy and smelly !! Towels were worn out and smelly The hotel accommodation price was too hight for such poor quality stay !!!! Anyways first time and last time for me and I don't recommend it to anyone at all !!
Review 76:view of the lagoon that was the only nice thing about it !!
Review 77:Beds mattresses are totally not comfortable, many facilities are not working or out of order although resort is fairly new, Family beach far from hotel rooms and water park, whereas the main pool which attached to water park rooms and Resturant is strictly for male and females not allowed to use, Food quality totally not worth trying, breakfast not good, food at the pool side resturant so bad and service provided there not good,
Review 78:Family oriented environment destination, suitable for Muslim culture tourism, Ladies pool clean and enjoyable Good water park facilities
Review 79:The only working autocar tranporting women to the pool was out of charge ... The staff at the women's pool cafeteria are so slow and not smart at all
Review 80:The privacy provided for muslim women was wonderful and sonething i always wished to have ... Swimming in an open pool wuth high standers os security
Review 81:- very strickt dressing rules for swimming for the women (total bodycover) and girls (> 7 years) in the familyarea. If this is not an issue, than it is a very nice resort, if it is an issue than don't go.
Review 82:- Excellent facilities for the children - nice appartments - food was ok - nice women area with big swimmingpool with perfect slides for the girls and a nice spa.
Review 83:It must be understood several things - 1) the hotel is not on the Dead Sea and has no beach, just in case you thought so. 2) the wifi connection is sporadic and not free. 3) most important - this is not a resort hotel where you can parade around in bikinis and skimpy clothing. It is run on Islamic principles whereby in the main swimming areas a full Islamic bathing suit is required. At the far end from the accomodation is a large circular building that is for females and their children ONLY. Here there are facilities like a spa/massage treatment but as stated, males are not allowed inside. Here, but only here, females can be more relaxed in their dress.
Review 84:It is a relatively new hotel and is clean and relatively tidy. There is though still some works and maintenence occuring but is not intrusive. The lagoon is large and pleasant and has a path all the way round where you can walk. It is probably over a kilometre all the way round. The water in the lagoon is far not as salty as the dead sea and is pleasant to swim in.
