"The keeper at property will ask for extra money for non sense things! The reservation changed in last minute while driving there so I had to take whatever option available!
The deal I paid for includes heated pool but on arrival i paid 35$ just for the heated pool cash!
Pool remained cold!
The owner so nice and available but the keeper was annoying!

"First off when we arrived around 11:20 am
The place wasn’t ready for checking in , we had to wait about 20 to 30 minutes…
After we checked in come to find out that the pool was not clean , hadn’t been used or cleaned in a while , green mold that clearly and visibly on the pool floor , kitchen had no coffee and tea pot to use , very basic kitchen supplies provided, in the bathrooms there was only 3 towels , no cleaning supplies to clean with , bed sheets and blankets were all dust and sand ,...
"Leak in the bathroom, smell of tobacco, no towels. But the staff brought towels right away. Google Maps had trouble finding the place but the staff was very helpful."
"Very helpful staff (especially Manuel) but a few issues. They didn't seem to know I was coming so had to work quickly to fully prepare the room. But they did well and it was very comfortable - good airconditioning, lovely sunset view over the Dead Sea, comfy bed. Breakfast didn't happen at 8am as planned and there was still nobody to be seen when we had to leave at 8.30, so we put the key on the front desk and let ourselves out."
"the property was clean, and all amenities you may need are there, the pool was clean but expected to be bigger but that wasn't a problem, one-note though, the guy who welcomed us closed part of the villa for no reason, my guess he was trying to reduce the areas to clean after we leave if my wife did not notice we would not enjoy the whole place, but anyways overall was a good stay."

"The hotel was excellent value for money and the bedroom spacious and comfortable. Super comfortable beds. Easy to walk into the busier part of town. Breakfast was good and the pool looked great, although we did not have time to enjoy that! Great for a short stay over when touring in Jordan "
"My stay at the Kempinski Hotel Ishtar Dead Sea was truly luxurious and memorable. From the moment we arrived, we were treated with great respect. Check-in was smooth, and we were personally escorted to our room with assistance for our luggage, which made for a very welcoming start.
We stayed in what I believe was a Junior Suite, which was incredibly spacious. It featured a huge king bed, a separate sitting area, and even a private outdoor seating area — perfect for relaxing in privacy.
As soon as we arrived, we went straight down to the Dead Sea access area (they close it around 7 pm before it gets dark). Floating in the water and trying out the mud mask was an unforgettable experience. Afterwards, we headed to one of the main central pools. Many pools close earlier, but luckily, this one stayed open until 8 pm, giving us extra time to enjoy the evening.
For dinner, we indulged in one of the largest buffet selections I’ve ever seen. The variety and quality were both excellent, and to top it off, there was a live belly dance show that added to the atmosphere. Breakfast the next morning was also buffet-style and just as smooth and satisfying.
One thing to note: the resort is very large, so there’s a lot of walking and quite a few stairs. This might be challenging for some guests, but it also adds to the feeling of exploring a grand, resort-style property.
Overall, Kempinski Ishtar Dead Sea offers an elegant mix of comfort, dining, and unique experiences right on the shores"
