Food & Drink

• Al Marjan - a la carte breakfasts (fancy!), and all-day buffet meals with live cooking stations - open as late as 02:00 am (?!), which is perfect for an early morning snack. If you're laying in bed craving a bit, this place will be your best mate!

• Boardwalk - this poolside bar is open from morning until sunset, with fresh juices and lavish cocktails on offer

• Brasserie - bet you didn't think you'd be getting transported to France did ya? Head over 'ere for classic French dishes and a bangin' crème brûlée. Whilst you're there wash it down with a bit of vino - be rude not to! It's a oui from us. Tip: Stop by for the best brunch every Saturday from 13:00 - 16:00!

• Meze - hot and cold meze dishes, flatbread, and kebabs, big enough to share. But we don't blame you if you don't want to. If you thought it couldn't get any elite, there's panoramic from the terrace, grab yourself a vino and watch the sun go down.

• Sanchaya - Asian classics with a menu of sushi, sashimi, flamin' hot wok dishes, rice and noodles. This place is well hot (literally).

• The Anchor - can take the Brit away from the pub, but ya can't take the pub away from the Brit. A menu of British classics think pie 'n mash, bangers, fish n' chips, this place is a slice of home. Oh, and hang around here between 5-8 pm, did someone say happy hour?

• The Lobby Lounge - open 24 hours (yep, literally all day), you can stop by for light snacks, coffee, tea and plenty more drinks. Midnight? 3 am? 6 am? Whatever time tickles your fancy.

• Vespa - a deliciouzo Italian restaurant with all the classic dishes, we're not just talking pizza and pasta, you've also got antipasti, and tiramisu (currently drooling). If we were you, we'd check out the blackboard - special dishes you can't get anywhere else (talk about exclusive)

• ShoFee Rooftop Bar - bangin' views, Arabian snacks, shisha and specialist cocktails. This spot will become your fave evening hangout.

• Beach Bar - you can't have a beach without a beach bar. With the tropical cocktails flowing you'll be wanting to chillax here all day.

• Boardwalk Pool Bar - where you can sip on cocktails by the pool, on your sunbed, or in the seating area

• Evening Entertainment - nothing too fancy, there's some acoustic performances and a live DJ at the beach bar at sunset

• FREE Wi-Fi - best start thinking about your Insta-captions now...

• Watersports -  all these beachy activities are at your fingertips, instead of chillaxing how about whipping around on a jet ski or releasing your inner mermaid with the snorkelling and diving

Please note, during Ramadan, certain hotel facilities and services (including alcoholic drinks and entertainment) may be withdrawn or altered.

There is also construction activity happening near to Nikki Beach, a new property is being built and a new casino is under construction. This will have minimal impact on guest's stay.
