Reviews and Ratings

Feedback about Fort Arabesque Resort, Spa & Villas from previous guests about their experience

Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Guests consistently praise the beautifully maintained grounds and gardens, complete with hammocks offering sea views. The West Bay area, exclusively for adults, is particularly appreciated, with some noting that the renovated rooms feature large showers and comfortable beds. The food receives positive feedback for its variety and quality, especially the BBQ at the beach bar and the fresh options available. While a few guests mentioned that some of the older rooms could use updating, this didn't detract significantly from their overall positive experience, as the rooms are spacious. Snorkeling directly off the beach is a highlight, thanks to the easily accessible reef.
