We stayed at Fort Arabesque Resort in early December 2020 during Corona times, so it was not busy at all, which we really liked as we could have relaxing time. Due to Corona and low number of guests, the breakfast/lunch/dinner were all served in the beach Club 159 with open terrace and sea views, at the beach, great decision by the hotel management. The beach at this resort is long and wide, the best in Makadi Bay, with excellent snorkeling directly off the coast (many guests from neighbouring resorts came to snorkel here). The gardens, pools and beach were all very well maintained. The room was spacious with a balcony overlooking the gardens and sea. At night there was live music at Club 159, probably bit louder and lasting longer in the night than we would have preferred. We were allowed a late checkout without any problem, which was really appreciated as we had a late afternoon flight. Unlike neighbouring resorts which seemed busy and noisy, Fort Arabesque felt like a little slice of paradise. Overall, we are really happy with our stay, we would definitely consider coming back.
