"Returning to Paradise: Our Unforgettable Stay at D Maris Bay
There are places you visit once—and then there are places that call you back. For us, D Maris Bay is the latter. After a blissful stay in May, we knew we had discovered something extraordinary. So, we returned for another 10 nights, and once again, it was pure magic.
Nestled in a breathtaking corner of the world, D Maris Bay is more than just a luxury resort. It’s a sanctuary where nature’s beauty meets impeccable hospitality. From the moment we arrived, we were enveloped in serenity—crystal-clear waters, lush landscapes, and sunsets that seem to pause time.
But what truly sets this place apart is its people.
Every meal, every moment on the beach, every interaction with the staff felt personal and heartfelt. While we wish we could name everyone who made our stay so special, a few deserve a special mention:
• Rojda – A shining example of grace and kindness, always ready with a warm smile and thoughtful conversation.
• Muhammed – The soul of the lobby bar, whose charm and service made every evening memorable.
• Busra – Our popcorn girl (she will understand) and for doing absolutely everything possible to make our trip perfect. Always with a smile
• Yusuf – The friendly face at DD Scoop, serving up daily joy with every scoop of ice cream.
To the entire team—thank you. You’ve created a place that feels like home, only better. We left with full hearts and a promise to return again.
