Beachfront Resorts in Latakia
Apamea Resort
The first resort you encounter heading north from Latakia, Apamea Resort sits on a sheltered bay less than 5 km from the city center — close enough to serve as an easy base for exploring the wider region, distinctive enough to function as a destination in its own right.
The property combines a seawater pool directly on the shoreline with a freshwater pool on the beach, alongside a range of water activities. Multiple restaurants serve a variety of cuisines and cocktails throughout the day. Accommodation spans hundreds of rooms and suites finished to a five-star standard — making Apamea a strong choice for a full summer holiday on the Syrian Mediterranean coast.
Blue Beach Resort
Blue Beach Resort is the most famous resort on the Syrian coast — located in what Latakians simply call al-Madinat al-Siyahiyya (the Tourist City), a dedicated coastal district developed specifically for beachside tourism. The resort extends directly in front of the sea with a scale that makes self-contained stays genuinely practical.
The property offers a large number of rooms and suites operating year-round, multiple restaurants serving throughout all areas of the resort — from the garden to the breakwater to the tennis courts — and the full range of facilities expected of a major Mediterranean beach resort. Blue Beach is the reference point against which other Latakia resorts are measured.
La Mira Hotel
Within the same Tourist City district, La Mira Hotel is the area’s most premium property — over 200 rooms and suites, all with direct sea views, across a range of sizes and configurations that share one constant: five-star finish and unobstructed Mediterranean outlook.
The hotel’s facilities cover swimming on both the private sandy beach and a dedicated shoreside pool, sports courts, a fully equipped fitness center, sauna, and multiple restaurants offering local and international cuisine. For a full luxury beach stay on the Syrian coast, La Mira is the most comprehensive option available.
Mountain Hotels
Park Plaza Slunfeh
Formerly known as the Grand Hotel Slunfeh, this property at the heart of Slunfeh — the Latakia highlands’ most established mountain resort town — has been recently renovated and rebranded as Park Plaza Slunfeh. It is the primary accommodation option for mountain tourism in the Latakia region, particularly during the winter season when Slunfeh receives regular snowfall.
The building itself is a heritage structure of white limestone with dark green wooden window frames — architecture that blends deliberately into the surrounding pine forest. Rooms and suites across the property deliver the full standard of comfort expected from the Park Plaza brand in a setting unlike any coastal or city hotel.
City Hotels
Riviera Hotel
Riviera Hotel occupies a central position in Latakia at the beginning of Al-Maghreb al-Arabi Street — well-placed for both business travel and leisure, within easy reach of the city’s commercial districts and its main tourist areas. The hotel offers 50 rooms fully equipped to a four-star standard, combining practical design with comfortable finishes. It is the most balanced city-center option in Latakia for visitors who want convenience without distance from the coastal attractions.
Haroun Hotel
Haroun Hotel is one of Latakia’s oldest established city properties — located on the roundabout that bears the same name in the city center, a reference point that has made it part of the city’s collective memory for decades. The hotel operates to a three-star standard with a substantial number of rooms, and is well-suited for short business stays or budget-conscious visits requiring a central location with easy access to both the commercial and tourist areas of the city.
