Review of Our 2-Day Stay at Tala Bay Residence – South Beach, Apartment 24103 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (4.0/5) We recently enjoyed a lovely two-day getaway at Tala Bay Residence, Apartment 24103, and overall, it was a great experience. The apartment itself was clean, well-maintained, and equipped with good facilities, making it a comfortable place to relax and unwind. The breakfast was quite satisfying, and the atmosphere of the residence added to the charm of our stay. One thing to note is that the location is a bit far from Aqaba's downtown, so having transportation is helpful. However, for those looking to enjoy the beach, water sports, or simply some peace and quiet away from the city, it's an excellent choice. The staff were very helpful, and I’d especially like to extend a big thank you to Mr. Waseem Zurub, the owner of one of the Tala Bay apartments, who connected me with his friend Mr. MD Liddawi. Mr. Liddawi went out of his way to ensure our stay was smooth and comfortable, and his hospitality was truly appreciated.

No phone numbers to call front desk or room service or anyone on the premises if need help fast, need to provide the appointment with more bathroom toilet paper.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Tala Bay Resort and it exceeded all my expectations. From the moment we arrived, the staff were incredibly welcoming and attentive, making us feel right at home. The resort itself is beautifully designed, with spacious, well-maintained rooms that offer stunning views of the Red Sea. The pool areas are a highlight — clean, expansive, and perfect for relaxing under the sun. The private beach is another gem, offering soft sand, crystal-clear waters, and plenty of loungers. We especially loved the snorkeling right off the beach; the marine life was vibrant and unforgettable. Dining at the resort was also a treat. There’s a great variety of dishes, and everything we tried was fresh and delicious. The breakfast buffet had something for everyone, with both local and international options. Overall, Tala Bay Resort is an ideal spot for a relaxing vacation. Whether you're looking to unwind, explore marine life, or just enjoy some luxury by the sea, this place has it all.

I would like to express my sincere appreciation for the wonderful experience I had during my stay at Tala Bay Resort. Everything was exceptional, from the stunning location to the top-notch facilities and excellent service. A special thank you to Mr. Saddam Al-Omari at the reception, whose professionalism, kindness, and dedication made my stay even more enjoyable. His warm welcome and willingness to assist with every request truly reflected outstanding hospitality. I highly recommend Tala Bay Resort to anyone looking for a perfect getaway, and I look forward to returning soon.

I had a wonderful stay, and I would like to extend my heartfelt appreciation to Mr. Mahmoud Al Marazeeq, the Duty Manager, for his outstanding service. From the moment I arrived, he was attentive, professional, and went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of my stay was perfect. His warm hospitality and proactive approach truly enhanced my experience. It's rare to find someone so dedicated and genuinely caring. Thank you, Mr. Mahmoud, for making my stay so memorable!

Location was very nice, our cabana had a pool and sea view and was very comfortable. Loved that the resort had a beach club, restaurants overlooking beach, supermarket and other facilities. Ahmad and yousef from front office were very kind and helpful. Breakfast was delicious but it ended early (10am)

Cleanliness wasn’t that great, bathrooms and balcony could be better and cleaner. We had a jacuzzi on the rooftop but we couldn’t use it because it wasn’t serviced and didn’t have maintenance. I think our fridge was broken because it wasn’t cooling and kept making noises.

The vibe of the place was good , staff was amazing , especially the receptionist Ahmad , made us feel right at home , anything we needed was immediately taken care of

Not much , but the place does need a bit of maintenance , freshening up if you may , however, to be fair , we had an issue with the shower that was taken care of immediately after the reception was notified , however , tiles , carpets , etc those kind of things need an inspection , but I wouldn't go as far as saying the place is neglected , but overall everything runs just fine and it's mainly visuals

I would like to extend my sincere appreciation to the Tala Bay management team for their exceptional leadership and dedication to excellence. The seamless operations, well-maintained facilities, and warm hospitality reflect a high standard of management. It's clear that a strong, committed team is working behind the scenes to ensure a remarkable guest experience. Keep up the great work!

The privet pool was huge and the villa was spacious. The garden well kept and the other pools and beach around the property was nice. For the car there was a complete garage which was connected to the villa. Its an amazing place to stay and spend some time with family. The concept is almost perfect, but unfortunately there are possible improvements that must be done.

The villa was not cleaned properly. The floor was dusty, there was some rubbish around the pool and on the roof lots of empty cups and cans. There was one juice cup and 2 mug in the kitchen for the whole villa. There were not enough towels or I should say there was no towels for the pool at all. The pool water circulation was off and the sun beds were dirty. There were many doors and tiles on the floor broken. Poor maintenance is obvious. There was no reception after 8 PM, so we had to wait till the next day to correct things. The stuff was helpful, but all should have been done before our arrival.

The pool and grounds are lovely and very well maintained. The flowers and plants are beautiful. There are a selection of pools which are good. The shop owners are all lovely, especially the ice cream man and the pharmacist. The staff are very pleasant also.

The rooms were not clean, we found an opened condom in a drawer. The furniture is falling apart and the curtains are falling down. The washing machine didn’t work and we asked for it to be fixed but it wasn’t. The toastie maker had not been cleaned from the last guest. In the other apartment we had similar problem, a leaking A/C but this was fixed after a number of complaints. It needs a good clean, some repairs and furniture that isn’t broken.

Our stay at Tala Bay was beyond expectations. Tala Bay offers much more freedom for families than other resorts in Aqaba. The kids can run on the long stretches of beach, play undisturbed in any of the several pools across the complex, and safely ride their bikes along the promenade. The pools / beach are open and accessible at all times of day, which is convenient since my kids wake up at 6am! (At other places, the access to pools and beach is only from around 9-10am.) Also, Tala Bay has significantly improved in terms of facilities. They now offer beautifully renovated and modern cabanas. These are 2-bedroom duplex houses with their own balconies and also their own rooftops to enjoy a dinner or drinks in the privacy of your home. The kids also regularly would go up to the rooftop to watch the sunset before bedtime. And the best part, the cabanas are located right next to the Beach Club where there is a heated pool and a fresh breakfast buffet (our breakfast was included in the booking and this was very convenient). The Beach Club also encompasses a beach area where many of the water sports are based. Again, very convenient when you have a family and you want to enjoy time by the seaside but also nip back to the cabana for any reason. As for the food, we ate mainly from two restaurants, Di Soto's and the Beach Club, which were both good. Some nights we walked or cycled along the port promenade to get to the restaurants and some nights we had the food delivered to our cabana. There is also a small supermarket where we were able to buy enough of the staples to make our own snacks and small meals. I couldn't have asked for anything more, it was great.
