I have traveled to Dubai approximately 15 times the first time in 1995.We have stayed at the best hotels in Dubai Abu Dhabi and 3 other emirates the service we have had here has been the best I have ever experienced. The chef Mohamed Rahman has gone above and beyond great service he’s is a diamond please don’t loose him . The food is excellent. In the lobby Lucy was so helpful a real pleasure to deal with her. We wanted a larger room and Mahmoud the duty manager sorted it no problem although the hotel was very busy. Cleanliness 5 star. Food 5 star if the kids want fries or burgers just ask and they will cook them for you. Pools lazy river excellent. We are staying at room 1210 until the 12 th of august and have been here 3 weeks. We can’t fault the hotel at all. Buggy are all over the place just hold your hand up they will take to to all the theme parks or to the pool or your rooms. Balu the buggy driver was outstanding. Thank you we will return Stephen kirk Read less

Lovely hotel and the staff are absolutely amazing, a big shout must go out to May, Kenn, Bea Arunkumar and Suresh, they really made our stay particularly special and really made us feel welcome, nothing appeared too much trouble! Also a big thank you to Mahmoud who is the director of rooms, we were not supposed to check in until 1500 though arrived on site at 1000, we assumed we’d have to wait until our room was ready. Mahmoud took us to a private shower room so we could freshen up and told us to relax by the pool, he took my number and text me within 40 minutes telling informing us that not only was our room ready he’d delivered the bags and was one route to personally deliver the keys, brilliant service! Hotel is spotless and I would have given it 5 stars if it wasn’t for the fact that there is only one place to get a drink, the lobby doesn’t not have bar. The main restaurant was being renovated so meals were served in the ballroom, at peak times was chaos with children running on everywhere, that said the hotel can’t be blamed for parents allowing their kids to behave like that. Food was ok but quite repetitive, the Asian themed restaurant on site was absolutely amazing and the pool side restaurant again very good! Read less

We had an amazing week. It's a kid friendly resort. Tara, Phoo and Ojoo were extremely friendly with our kids. At some point they forgot the parents were around. We will definitely be back.
