5-Star Hotels in Balqa, Jordan

One of the most amazing places in dead sea. Beautiful hotel, beautiful views, fantastic service, friendly staff, amazing food, great pool and access to sea. Did I mention the service staff are so friendly and helpful? A big shout out to Mariah at front desk who was very friendly and helped me out with a great room, local travel and whatever queries I had. Her friendliness and service made our stay very pleasant.

Security checks are required for both vehicles and luggage upon check-in. There's also a 100 JOD (approximately 1000 RMB) credit card deposit that's only refunded 10 days after check-out. They don't provide any email confirmation or proof of a successful room inspection after check-out; everything relies on their word. Guests are completely passive in this process. On the upside, you can watch the Dead Sea sunset from the hotel and also float in it. The breakfast buffet is just so-so. For a five-star hotel, this stay felt incredibly stifling. The overall experience was quite poor.

Movenpick Dead Sea was one of the happiest leg in my Jordan trip. The hotel setting was so charming and quaint that one could spend the whole day relaxing within the hotel massive compound. The hotel immersive mud experience and Zara spa (hydro pool and other facilities) was immensely enjoyable! Although it was winter, the waters temperature was bearable. The lifeguards were helpful and were great photographers. The variety and cost of food at restaurants within the hotel are reasonable, such that one does not need to venture out of the hotel. Also, the fountain in the breakfast restaurant provides a calm and soothing atmosphere. These are little touches that make one’s trip memorable. A minor hiccup is, scanning of luggage at the entrance is only manned by 1 security guard. It would be helpful if the bellboys/porters are stationed at the security area to help guests with the luggage (where help is needed most to load and unload bags from the security conveyor belt) instead of standing in the lobby area. My appreciation to Ahmed at the front desk reception who listened to my feedback and promptly reacts. Overall, an outstanding experience at Dead Sea.

Beautiful hotel. Staff were amazing. Definitely use the spa asI had a full massage and facial and felt amazing. The lifeguard at the beach was so helpful. This hotel you must book as relaxing and food so good. About 7 minutes away is Almer Dead Sea factory produce. Well worth a visit
