Lovely stay at Medina Palms. Staff were so warm and welcoming, the suite was huuuuge and well equipped and the location wonderful. Especially loved the beach bar!
Nothing I didn’t like

Very nice comfortable boutique-type hotel with lovely grounds Excellent alfresco dining with diverse menu and reasonable prices. Beautiful pools with comfy loungers. A short tuk-tuk ride to nearby restaurants . Really enjoyed our 6 nite stay.
Housekeeping issues. While HK did a good job cleaning, they often opened the doors and windows and left the a/c on or shut the a/c so we came back at the end of the day to an uncomfortable warm unit. In addition, HK constantly left all the lights on which creates heat and wastes energy usage and ultimately raises costs. Same with spraying for mosquitos at night. HK came with spray but left the door open after dark while spraying in the unit for mosquitos.

Medina Palms is beautifully designed with the 3 central pools running downwards towards the sea framed by the classic North African arches. The 2 bedrooms apartment was clean spacious and modern and beautifully, but simply, decorated.
There was nothing we didn’t like. The design and facilities were perfect.

The gardens are superb and the pools excellent .
Rooms spacious but tired with a few things missing - no flannels and no bottled water which for the price I would have expected .
Rooms tired : no bottled water no flannels
Breakfast and the room were poor and not what I expected for quite an expensive hotel ( over £220 per night)
Spa disappointing and needs better quality products that smell pleasant
