Pleasant staff. Lovely comfortable spacious upper floor room and comfy bed and balcony with a view of the sea. Decor and fittings in need of upgrade (shabby cushions on the balcony, crooked door on the fridge cupboard). Delicious breakfast with lots of choices. Great selection of pools, lovely gardens and little shops. Taxi ride into central Aqaba.

Go just for the location!
The location of the resort is brilliant. The resort itself has seen better days. It is tired and run down. The room was basic, pillows were as hard as rocks, mattress was lumpy. The cleanliness was barely basic, needs a thorough clean every so often to keep it looking even average.
Disappointed in the reception staff. I mentioned I'd be spending my birthday on my own at the resort, she barely acknowledged my comment and did not try to make my stay special.

Not worth the money
Disappointed and not worth the money - the resort is really outdated and needs some serious love. Our room had a smell, the shower felt dirty and a lot of features barely worked (lights not working, tv had no sound etc). Advertised a swim up bar but this was closed off and looked like it had never been open. For the price we paid I wish we’d stayed elsewhere as this was not worth the money at all

Some good and some bad
My superior room had a nice sunset view overlooking the main pool. Very good. Gated community with focus on security. Was able to check-in a little earlier than I should. Swimming pools are a big plus and there are many of them. Separate one for adults only. Breakfast selection OK. WiFi connection OK. Unfortunately some drawbacks with this hotel. I found ants in my room every day. The first two days I had no hot water. The aircondition was very loud (even on Low), so I had to turn it off during nights.

In die Jahre gekommenes Hotel
Das Grand Tala Bay ist etwas in die Jahre gekommen und bedarf einer Renovation um wieder 5 Sterne zu entsprechen. Momentan würde ich es noch knapp als 4 Sterne international einstufen. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und Hilfsbereit.Im Moment (Herbst 2024) haben Sie schwer wegen dem Krieg in Israel. Es ist jedoch im Land bis auf die fehlenden Touristen nichts zu merken. Dennoch versuchen Sie sicher den Standard zu halten auch für die wenigen Gäste in TalaBay. Beide Jacouzzi waren defekt was meiner Meinung nach in einem 5 Sterne Haus nicht geht. Auch bei den Pools geht es nicht dass einfach bis auf einen Pool alles geschlossen bleibt. Da haben Sie aber auf meine Bitte hin dann auch den Adults-only Infinitypool geöffnet. Bei der Bett und Frottee Wäsche sind Sie bedacht nur zu wechseln wenn vom Gast gewünscht was ich super finde in einem Land wo es beinahe kein Wasser gibt. Beim Strom, also Beleuchtung und Klimaanlage dürfte mehr geschaut werden. Da war im Zimmer wenn ich spätnachmittags vom Strand kam, oft Klima und Licht an vom Roomservice. Definitiv verbessert werden muss die Pflege vom Sandstrand! Cigarettenfilter ohne ende im Sand und auch sonstiger Abfall bleibt liegen und wird leider vom Personal nicht beachtet. Aluteile von Getränkedosen zum beispiel, wo man sich die Füsse aufscheiden Kann!! Das Frühstücksbuffet ist ein Wahnsinn. Und der Check in war ebenfalls sehr schön und Angenehm. Frühstückbox bei früher Abreise, kein Problem.Alles in allem haben Sie es gut gemacht.

Grande resort in zona sud di Aqaba, risente un po’ degli anni, necessiterebbe di un po di manutenzione in alcuni punti

Very nice property with very friendly staff and beautiful grounds. We were greeted with a cold glass of strawberry juice during check-in and Ahmed at the front desk was excellent. The zero clearance pool offered a beautiful view of the Sea and the food was excellent. There was a slight problem with the room keys deactivating and sometimes a language barrier with staff who did not speak English but all in all we had a very relaxing and enjoyable time.

Good and not too expensive hotel at Tala Bay
Nice hotel, great views, probably not a bad view in the whole place! We had a garden view room but it was also overlooking a pool and the sea. The pools looked nice, but we lived at the beach!❤️ Wonderful beach access, even some nice coral close by for snorkeling:) The Tala Bay Resort area is amazing!
