Farasan Park Hotel

Saudi Arabia


Farasan Park Hotel is the only place suitable for tourists to stay on the islands. This resort is relatively close to Farasan Town yet backs onto its own idyllic beach. There's an outdoor pool, decent food in an international restaurant and large, spacious rooms with sea views. The lack of atmosphere is a shame, but it's nevertheless a pleasant place for a short stay.
