I had a pleasant stay from the start. Rabani gave me a personal tour when I arrived, which made me feel really welcome. Gym was clean and fully equipped actually to my surprise. I loved the spa and the massage treatment on a sand bed! They also had some amazing personal care products - quite pricey but definitely worth it - Randi was super helpful and patient while I decided what to get. The infinity pool was beautiful, and the hotel had so many restaurants, each specializing in their own cuisine. I tried Yorokō, the Japanese restaurant, and Staten, the steakhouse—both were excellent including the staff as well. Supun, the guest services coordinator, even upgraded me to a bigger room for a better ocean view, which was a really lovely gesture.

My extensive experience with high-quality hotels in numerous countries meant I had no particular expectations upon arrival. It is not my custom to compose reviews, as my primary objective is to enjoy my stay. Nevertheless, I was most agreeably surprised by the Hotel Nuwa in City of Dreams. The courteous personnel and management demonstrated remarkable attentiveness in catering to my every requirement. A notably valuable amenity is the provision of a personal butler, designed for guests desiring an indulgent experience.

The warmest welcome one could wish to find . Particularly at 11pm. Owner Rukie was not only there to greet us after our flight, she provided refreshments from her own supply and then non intrusively was a wealth of information. Breakfast from the staff was incredible. The place was spotless. This is not a hotel, nor a villa. It is a home away from home. Greeted by Rohane the next morning, this couple are definitely in the right business. Thank you for a truly amazing stay. My only complaint is that we stayed one night. . Like general mcarthur, we shalt return.
