Mövenpick Beach Resort Al Khobar scooped the title of ‘Best Resort in Saudi Arabia’ at the SABQ Tourism Awards at a recent ceremony in Riyadh, held under the auspices of the Minister of Culture and Information, Dr. Abdulaziz Khouja.
It follows the resort’s accomplishments at earlier editions of the Saudi Excellence in Tourism Awards (SETA), when it collected the ‘Best Specialised Accommodation’ award in 2011 and 2012
Mövenpick Beach Resort Al Khobar resort manager Prashant Sharma said. “Our spacious multi-bedroom villas contribute significantly to the privacy and flexibility our guests and families enjoy at the resort. That, along with our excellent facilities means that the resort is truly a space where people can unwind and satisfy a need for relaxation and pampering.
“Getting an award like ‘Best Resort in Saudi Arabia’ is certainly a major coup for us. We are very privileged to have a great resort team looking after our guests and everyone is elated about the news. Running a resort that is regarded as the best in the country means a great deal to our team members. ”
A number of tourism and hospitality officials, participating organisations and other dignitaries in Saudi Arabia also attended the awards ceremony.
Mövenpick Beach Resort Al Khobar has 36 three-bedroom villas, a tranquil private beach, swimming pool, two restaurants and a wellness centre.
