Grand Tala Bay Resort Aqaba

-For five stars resort rooms should be away better , many areas require renovation.

-Construction and demolition work was on going on the room above us which was very annoying in out first day . Such work shouldn’t be allowed while the rooms around are reserved.

We complained to the shift manager and they stopped the work after some time , although no one apologized for this terrible inconvenience.

- Also some elevators not operating.

- delay in getting the room while doing check in for almost one hour than the schedule.

Place could be much better.

Food is good , room view is accessible to pools .

Great beach location: you can swim out a few metres and see coral, which is pretty amazing. Most rooms have great views and are very quiet. But, the rooms are very dated, cleanliness isn’t great, and the buffet dinner/breakfast often felt like a zoo it was so loud. The buffet breakfast and dinner were pretty mediocre.

Room was definitely not worth 5 stars but more like 3 stars at max. Service wasn't the that good either. Booked the room at 3 but we got it at 5. I also have a family of 7, 2 little kids and 5 adults including the parents. We asked for a extra bed the day we booked but once we got into the room it was 3 beds with no extra bed that we asked for. We Went to the reception and they told me to pay $35 extra for every night even tho they told us that we would get that extra bed. Not good experience. Not worth the price at all. Didnt have international wall ports which isn't a big deal but still important. Completely disappointed. I don’t even know how its a 5 star hotel. Wouldn’t recommend
