The Bay Club at Anahita

We had a fantastic stay and would definitely recommend this hotel. The service was excellent throughout, with all the staff being incredibly friendly, attentive and helpful. A special mention to Soon, who went above and beyond to make our stay even more enjoyable.

The food was also excellent, with great quality and plenty of variety throughout our stay.

The hotel itself is beautiful, with very well-maintained facilities, comfortable rooms and lovely common areas. Everything was clean and thoughtfully looked after, creating a very relaxing atmosphere.

Overall, a wonderful experience and a hotel we would happily return to.

Unfortunately, our experience at this resort was extremely disappointing and nowhere near what we expected from a 5-star property.

One of the biggest issues was the number of stray dogs around the villas. The dogs regularly came onto the property and even slept on the outdoor furniture. When we contacted the front desk but they could not help.

We also experienced considerable noise late at night from workers operating around the restaurant area. The restaurant is also undergoing renovation, significantly affecting the facilities and atmosphere during our stay.

I honestly cannot thank Anahita Bay Club enough for such a perfect family holiday! ❤️

We recently spent 7 nights in a stunning 3-bedroom villa with a private pool — Villa 3402 — and from the moment we arrived, we knew we were in for a special stay.

We arrived by hire car at around 9am and, to our delight, our villa was already ready for us. Check-in was seamless, the welcome was warm and friendly, and our luggage was taken straight to the villa while we completed the formalities.

We stayed on an all-inclusive basis, which even extended to our villa. We simply paid a small delivery charge of around 400 rupees (approximately £6), which was absolutely worth it. Having food and drinks delivered to the villa was such a treat!

The villa itself was beautiful, spacious and spotlessly clean, with everything we could possibly need. A huge thank you to our wonderful cleaners, Poonham, who was such a beautiful soul, and Vinwishi, who always greeted us with her lovely smile. I really hope I have spelt their names correctly!

We also made some unexpected friends during our stay — a couple of very friendly stray dogs who visited us around the pool throughout the week. The children absolutely adored them (and, if we’d had our way, we would have brought them home! 🐶❤️).

Getting around the resort was easy. With the heat and the children, the walk to the restaurants and main pool was a little too far for us, but the buggy service was fantastic. They were always prompt, and we met some lovely drivers, including Heimaan and Raynan — apologies if I’ve got the names slightly wrong!

The restaurants were excellent, with great food and genuinely lovely staff. Adesh was fantastic, and the barman who made my apple daiquiris was great fun — unfortunately, I can’t remember his name!

The Italian à la carte restaurant was also excellent, with delicious food and great service. During our stay, the all-inclusive restaurant was temporarily being renovated, so the all-inclusive dining was in a marquee. Despite this, the food was fresh, plentiful and delicious, with plenty of BBQ meats and other choices. We also enjoyed live music on some evenings, which created a lovely atmosphere.

My husband also met Soon and Bisoon, who I believe are managers, and they were both fantastic and incredibly helpful.

The boat over to the private beach was another highlight. The boat drivers were brilliant, and the whole experience was so relaxing. Even the pool towel team were friendly and helpful — every member of staff we encountered genuinely contributed to making our holiday so enjoyable.

Quite simply, we could not fault Anahita Bay Club. From the accommodation and food to the service, staff, facilities and little touches, everything was exceptional.

We absolutely loved every minute of our stay, from start to finish. The people were wonderful, the setting is beautiful and the whole resort has that perfect combination of luxury, relaxation and family-friendly service.

We will definitely be back and would highly recommend Anahita Bay Club to anyone looking for a luxurious, relaxing and genuinely special family holiday. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Thank you to the entire team for making our stay so memorable. Until next time! 🌴☀️❤️
