Kempinski Hotel Aqaba
If you're wondering why there is no art on the white walls of this swanky, ultramodern luxury property, it's intentional: the focus is on the sea view, and every room has one, along with a balcony. Guest rooms are spacious, comfortable, and aesthetically pleasing in a minimalist way. Public spaces have vast windows that look out to the Red Sea and the pool area. Expect to feel pampered here: standard service at a Kempinksi property is luxury service at most other hotels.
