Afternoon Tea at the Phoenician. Food, ample amount, served beautifully and very tasty. The service, 5 stars. The ambiance was distracting. We were situated in the lobby that was roped off. There were people walking around in their bathing suits, talking loudly, several gentlemen without shirts on in flip flops. There was a T V on showing a golf tournament. Each of us paid 278.00 for this experience and it was not enjoyable. The Phoenician can do better than that. Extremely disappointing and we will not return.

I cannot say enough good things about the Phoenician Tea Room experience! The staff is incredibly welcoming, and we always see the same friendly faces when we visit—they truly treat us like royalty. The food is not only delicious but also beautifully presented, making every bite a delight. Adding to the charm, a talented pianist serenades us on a grand piano while we soak in the breathtaking views. Every visit is an absolute joy, and we are so grateful for the consistently exceptional service. Thank you for always creating such a wonderful afternoon!

Wanda is the best! Give that woman a raise! We love the service, food, live music, and view. The tea room is too loud.
