Recreation: Waterpark featuring a lazy river and water slides

“Shangri-La Barr Al Jissah's greatest strengths lie in its private beachfront and impressive array of family-oriented amenities, including a lazy river and dedicated kids' club. While some may find aspects of the resort dated, the luxurious spa suites set within lush gardens offer a definite counterpoint. I believe the Turtle Ranger program, highlighting the hotel's commitment to conservation, is a particularly unique and valuable feature.”
