The hotel

This sparkling Jumeirah resort sits on arguably the best stretch of sand on Saadiyat Island, a unique eco-destination which balances luxury with sustainability. It’s easy to see why they’re keen to preserve this beautiful patch of the UAE, with its nesting turtles, visiting dolphins, and twisting mangroves creating a refreshingly unspoilt holiday setting for thoughtful travellers. But, being in tune with initiatives like using reusable water bottles, doesn’t equal missing out on today’s luxuries – and Jumeirah Saadiyat Island comes with an over-the-top menu of pools (we count four), spa treatments (which are taken in a space with a sumptuous Moroccan hammam twist), and plentiful bars and restaurants (with seven venues created to let you wine and dine your nights away together).

We have never enjoyed a holiday so much! This hotel exceeded all expectations we had. We cannot thank the staff enough for their amazing service. We arrived early, way before check in and while I room was not ready, perfectly fine and expected, we were offered an upgrade to a 2 bedroom panoramic suite. Honestly we were so made up and never had anything happen like this before. During our stay we received great service from all staff. They all know you by name which is such a nice touch. We only ate in the buffet restaurant as we have kids and it was easy for them to have whatever they fancied. The food was absolutely outstanding and there was so much choice. It was so difficult to choose. Special thanks to the chef Mohammed and our waitress Dipdee. The pool staff were amazing from finding sun beds, getting towels, moving parasols and getting water for us. I didn't capture his name unfortunately. Jasmine was super friendly and went out of her way to make us feel welcome too. Special thanks to Saleem on the beach too for looking after us. Big thanks too to Grace and Raju at the pool bar for their fantastic cocktails. We did visit the rooftop lounge too which is lovely and quiet for an evening cocktail. We also attended a drinks & canapés hour on our last night courtesy of the hotel. All the little free bits from water, bottles, fruit, lollies, lip balm and so much more were just such lovely little touches. The Jumeriah has been outstanding from start to finish and I'm not sure if we will find anywhere again so good. We always said we wouldn't visit the same hotel twice but we are seriously considering coming back. Sorry for such a long review! We just loved it. Thank you so much the Bowen family. Read less

The service was outstanding, and the staff were the highlight of this hotel. Every employee greeted guests proactively and with great enthusiasm at all times. Their problem-solving speed and capability were impressive, responding promptly when needed. Special thanks to Yogi from the White Restaurant for his attentive service and top-notch food. He even gifted my daughter a beautiful farewell gift and some snacks. The facilities were complete and highly modern, with a minimalist yet elegant decor that was very well maintained. The pool loungers were especially comfortable and clean. The only drawback was that the bathroom door seal needs improvement; a lot of water leaked out during showers. Additionally, the spa lockers were difficult to use—both my husband and I couldn’t open ours and needed assistance from security, which also affected a few other guests. Read less
