What a wonderful experience at The Varana Hotel. The staff was absolutely lovely from start to finish. They were very accomodating and made our visit extra special. The whole hotel vibe was super beautiful and modern. Our room was spacious and I loved the sustainability throughout the entire property. The breakfast was delicious and had many made to order and healthy options. The restaurant Kin, was also so good. We ate there regularly for lunch and dinner. Lastly, the Onsen spa was amazing and we enjoyed how nice and clean it was. Overall, a magical experience! We hope to be back!

Varana is a very nice property. It is *not* directly on the beach; but a very short walk across the street. Staff is super attentive and friendly. The property is gorgeous and the room is quite comfortable. We would stay again for sure.

Located next door to a very loud mosque. I had a party at 5 pm on Saturday, staff told me to turn the music because someone complained!!!??? Also loud construction noise from their new building can be heard all day. Beach bar across the street is totally dead even on the weekends. Verana sucks. Lied about the discount given because of the noise too.

In short - you can get the same experience in your nearest vacation town at any generic hotel chain. There are some major issues with this new hotel that must be addressed. 1. When we arrived at the hotel, no one was waiting at the entrance, leaving us wondering where is the Lobby? Where should we leave the suitcases ? How do we check in? 2. After going up the staircase while leaving out luggage alone we found the reception with what seems to be two very young teenagers behind the desk 3. No “welcome”, “how was your trip here?” , “how are you?” . The conversation literally started with - “Hello, please give me your passport and credit card”. They were not rude, they were just children that don’t have clue on hospitality. 4. After signing some papers we got a cheap paper that was clearly cut by a 4-years-old “complimentary 1 hour at their thermal something” , didn’t really listened as it was scotching hot in the lobby with standing cheap fans. 5. We waited another 10 minutes for someone to pick us up to the room, when we got there the key was not working - apparently they wrote different room numbers on the inside and outside of the key holders 6. Finally got into the room - air conditioning was off and there was zero oxygen in the room. 7. As for the quality -the hotel is new, however the use if cheap materials is noticeable and a lot of things already starting to fall apart such as bathroom tiles,bad smells,mold, pool chairs etc. 8. I have 18 points but no space left

Excellent hotel! Highly recommended. This is a new hotel. Great rooms, nicely designed, care of all details, big and comfortable, very quiet, all services that you can imagine. Excellent breakfast, fresh products, variety. Several swimming pools, different sizes. The hotel was quite full but since the design is perfectly done, you feel as if there were few tourists. Staff is very friendly. Nice area, several good restaurants nearby. We have been on a tour, on several hotels and this one was the best. The only negative point for me is the number of emails they send you before arrival to pay in advance when the hotel has your credit card details. I did not understand why they do not want to charge it directly instead of bothering you so many times.

The hotel property was so nice and clean. The staff was so friendly and accommodating. The breakfast was outstanding, the pool bar was nice and had great food! The only thing I would suggest is to get a lift up to the breakfast area as the only way up is stairs. People who are handicap/bad knees have to go up stairs. Also, it would be nice if more shopping is around the area on the beach. Not much shops around. Other than that, great place to stay, we loved it!!!

Wonderful accommodations!
The hotel itself is new and beautiful. The staff is very friendly, but the newness shows in the ease of services. They are trying so very hard but it doesn't quite make it. Since we were there during the soft opening I believe they will work out their kinks and smooth out the roughness...but again, the strong effort to please is there. The one downside is the resort is removed from the hub of things and we often had a hard time getting a Grab to pick us up. Getting back home was never an issue. The price for this level of hotel was wonderful and in spite of my criticism I highly recommend the Varana.
