Disappointing Stay at Bahari Dhow Resort – Not Worth the Hype I wish I could give Bahari Dhow Resort a glowing 5-star review, but unfortunately, my experience was far from pleasant. Let me break it down. Location – 100% The resort’s proximity to the beach is its biggest advantage. Walking along the shore in the morning and evening, especially during sunset, was incredibly therapeutic. That, however, was the highlight of my stay. Customer Service – Below Par The customer service was disappointing. Any time we requested assistance, we received little to no help, forcing us to handle things on our own. A resort should prioritize its guests' comfort, but this one failed miserably in that regard. Booking Issues – Unprofessional Handling We booked well in advance and chose the villa as the most convenient option for my family. After making a down payment, I later received an email with an inflated balance, which led to a frustrating back-and-forth before they finally corrected the issue. The entire process felt shady, as though there was foul play involved. Check-in Experience – Chaotic and Unwelcoming We arrived on January 1st, expecting a smooth check-in. Instead, the resort was wide open to the public, with anyone able to access the premises freely. I’ve been to other resorts along Beach Road, and they have a well-coordinated way of handling public access, often charging a redeemable entrance fee to control the crowd. Here, there was none of that, making the place feel overcrowded and unsafe. Despite indicating a check-in time of noon, we arrived at 4 PM only to wait three more hours before our room was ready. And when we finally got in—what a nightmare! The room was messy, the bedding unkempt, and the overall cleanliness was unacceptable. Facilities – Poor Maintenance Utensils – Outdated and worn out. Furniture – In desperate need of an upgrade. Electricity – Kept going on and off throughout our stay. Swimming Pool – Overcrowded to the point that it was unusable. Even checking into our room felt unsafe due to the sheer number of people on the premises. It didn’t feel like the exclusive, relaxing getaway we had paid for. For the price we paid, I expected far better. Compound – Neglected and Uninviting The outdoor areas were poorly maintained. The grass was overgrown, making the compound look unkempt. There was nothing appealing about the outdoor space, no inviting areas to relax in. Breakfast – A Health Hazard Day 1 – Breakfast was fresh, likely because the villas were fully booked. Day 2 – The juice tasted off. Day 3 – Disaster struck. My entire family got food poisoning from the buffet breakfast. While I typically don’t eat breakfast, I opted for an omelet that was freshly made in front of me, which saved me. However, the rest of my family suffered from diarrhea for days, making the journey home extremely difficult. We had to get medication and stay hydrated just to recover. Beyond that, the breakfast lacked variety. For a resort catering
