☀️🌊
A wonderful experience and an amazing place, but it's not without some important observations.
The beach is wonderful and very clean 🏖️, and the general atmosphere is stunning and charming 🌅.
The service was "beyond excellent," without hesitation! 🌟 The entire staff was fantastic and professional, and I must give a special mention to yene and Bella for their exceptional service. 👍
The drinks were lovely 🍹, and great shisha is available 💨.
The water is clear and beautiful, but be aware, it gets deep just a short distance from the shore 🏊♂️.
The nighttime parties are good 🎉 (I visited on a Saturday). The vibe was nice, but not dazzling or exceptional.
Unfortunately, the beach lacked engaging activities throughout the day. There was no foam party 🥳, no group dancing, and no real celebratory events—just a DJ 🎧 playing relaxing music.
Why 4 stars instead of 5? 🤔 The reason for deducting a star comes down to two main things:
The Price 💰: The prices are extremely exaggerated!
The entrance fee alone ranges from 25 to 50 Bahraini Dinars per person! 💸 If you pay the minimum (25 BHD), you only get a small beach chair and no towel.
You need to pay an extra 3 BHD for a single towel!
(We were two people from 1 PM to 8 PM, and the bill came to around 2000 Riyals!).
Lack of Daytime Activities: As mentioned, the day passes very quietly, which might be disappointing for those looking for a lively, energetic daytime atmosphere.
Solymar is a beautiful place to relax and offers world-class service, but be prepared for a very high budget, and don't expect many loud or energetic activities...

Read moreThe sitting area is nice , but the place is VERY overpriced. And for whatever reason men and women share the same toilet area, so if you're a guy be prepared to wait while women do their makeup in the stall, and of course security is waiting for you to even attempt to go P on the side of the facility so they can yell at you even though you can't understand them. I literally paid 6 BD for 4 small meatballs , and another 6 BD for two tiny chicken skewers. Their drinks forget it, they use this tiny shot glass not even a full size shot glass don't fill it up , then charge you 6 BD for the drink. The second drink I had wine, it was filled so low I had to give back to the lady who poured it and say come on. The lady pouring the drink called her supervisor and even the supervisor said put more in it when she saw it , overall though I see this issue in many lounges in Bahrain. I don't think there is a country in the world where alcohol is so expensive and they pour like a dwarf is drinking it. But 2 stars because in the end it was nice sitting in the chair and looking towards Marassi I guess. Overall price of event, alcohol , and 2 snacks, be prepared to spend some money.....alot of money. You'll sit in bathroom lines , see fights and watch a crowd of VIP people on stage cover the DJ so you can...
