Royal Tulip - First Beach Resort in Cox's Bazar

The temperature of the sun is steadily increasing, warming the earth more than ever before. In this increasing heat, all of a sudden we got an offer to go for a tour to a majestic new hotel in Cox's Bazar. 

I did not have to think twice. I jumped on the 12 a.m. bus and reached my destination, while in deep slumber throughout the journey. We reached Kalatoli and a minibus arrived to pick me up from the hotel lounge, where all the guests are received from, and took me to the hotel.

Without even thinking about the extreme heat, the appeal of going near the sea started increasing. The bus started and our next stop was to be the one and only 5-star Hotel Royal Tulip. 

The hotel is strategically located between the sea and the locality. After 40 minutes of traversing through the natural beauty, at last the royal reception of Sea Pearl was in sight!  The Sea Pearl is the lobby after getting off the bus. Everyone had a camera! And why wouldn't they? We could see the long-awaited beauty of the sea from the lobby, for which we came for. Such a sight is indeed very rare. 

But, again our attention came back to the hotel compound. The blue water, and the Amoeba Swimming Pool full of music everywhere; I was instantly thinking of how spoiling the luxuriant environment was.  Meanwhile, everybody got their room keys. Barely after getting freshened up, everyone was instantly at the pool side! Whether they knew how to swim or not, getting into the pool was a must! Since it was not that deep, no one had to face any difficulties. On the very first day, we spent four hours in the pool. 

Now, let's focus on the hotel itself. This luxury resort is built on the largest unbroken beach in the world; Inani Beach of Cox's Bazar. The magnificence and splendour of the resort will soothe your mind instantly upon entering. This resort has been established on around 50 acres and the pretty exterior of this place has been adorned with balanced, beautiful gardens and water bodies. 

It is the beach, right in front of the resort, where you will get to see the ocean corals. During the stay in the hotel, you will completely get to enjoy yourself, since the Himchhari Waterfall, the Daria Nagar and the Burmese market are just near the hotel. 

There are lots of additional advantages of the hotel as well. You will get to visit the water park, a tennis-badminton court, 3D movie hall, gym and a spa. To give a thrilling experience to everyone, there are some outdoor activities available, e.g. parasailing, snorkelling, deep sea fishing and speedboat riding. 

You will get two swimming pools and a Jacuzzi; one of these is for the ladies. Radiance Spa is another amenity that has been put in for the visitors of the resort, where a variety of therapies and treatments are available. These will calm and relax your mind and body. For food and drink purposes, there are five special restaurants, offering multi-cuisine dining, an ice-cream parlour and a juice bar in the hotel. But for those who want to host any conferences or any event or festivals, a 10,000 square feet space is available there, along with two seminar rooms and a huge ballroom. This resort and its own sea-beach has an open space, where you can spontaneously arrange any destination weddings, gala nights, family programs, fashion shows, official meetings or functions or any kind of events.

The resort has 493 aristocratic rooms and various categorised superior rooms which offer both the hill view and the sea view. You will get a kitchen, dining, and living area in the Panoramic Sea View Studio Suites, in addition to a balcony. Kitchen, dining, and living area are available in the Premium Sea View Suite. There are two more Executive Suites of different sizes available, where you will get the same facilities. There is another suite named the Family Suite, which is very suitable for those who will come with family. It has an attached balcony attached, facing the sea-beach, as well as all other facilities. As an added bonus, there will be a separate living space, three washrooms, a master bedroom, and a children's room. Special rooms are available for special guests. The Presidential Suite is another lavish setup and its size is 2500 square feet. Along with a royal interior and furniture, there is a big corridor available. Situated on the 9th floor of this resort, this beach facing suite has a bathtub, Jacuzzi, sauna and a separate living space. 

It is not finished yet. For the newlywed couple, this hotel has a Luxury Honeymoon Suite. Every kind of facility is there for a complete family. And, as a cherry on the top, there is a Jacuzzi and a swimming pool. Additionally, a mini bar, tea/coffee maker, TV, water bottle and a shower cubicle is available in every room. You will get 24 hour room service and Wi-Fi facility.

In the meantime, a soft opening of this 5-star hotel has taken place. This resort can offer a great experience and is an ideal place for spending your trouble-free vacation at any time, throughout the year.
