We stayed one night at Caravan by Habitas in Agafay and overall left feeling a bit disappointed. The setting is beautiful and the concept has a lot of potential, but the experience did not fully match the premium image and price point the property promotes.
The biggest thing missing for us was attention to detail and the personal touches that make a luxury stay feel memorable. The staff was polite, but the hospitality often felt more functional than warm or proactive. Small gestures, such as a handwritten welcome note or a more personalized approach, would have made a big difference.
There were also several smaller details that individually would not have mattered much, but together made the experience feel less polished than expected. Around 9am, the pool area still had towels left from the previous day and no fresh towels available yet. There were also visible objects and items around the pool that took away from the atmosphere. The amount of flies around the bar and dining areas also did not help the overall experience.
That said, there were definitely highlights. The food was genuinely very good — dinner was excellent, breakfast was delicious, and one of the best Aperol Spritzes I’ve had in a long time. The bread-making experience was also a lovely moment and probably the highlight of the stay.
Overall, not a bad experience, but not one that fully lived up to expectations either.
