Guest reviews for Fort Arabesque Resort, Spa & Villas

Family (1)
4 out of 5
The beach is amazing. Food is great. Service is great, Reception team and restaurant staff are very professional. Overall the resort is beautiful and we had a great time. Only concern I had is that the reservation agent wanted to charge us extra fees because we are Egyptians though I was already charged by Travelocity and there is nothing on the website indicates that the rate is for non Egyptians only! Other than that everything was perfect.
