“Disappointed”

Oct 29, 2025Lucyared

We arrived today as a family of five, including our 22-month-old baby, and unfortunately, our experience so far has been disappointing — especially considering that we have paid over £6,000 for four nights at this resort. We have two rooms, and when we asked about extending our stay in one room on the last day until 9.30pm so that our baby could nap and we could get showered / dressed etc we were told that we could either pay £500 to extend the room without any guarantee or £1,000 to guarantee a room. We are happy to pay the additional £500 of course, but the additional £500 feels unreasonable and like we are being bribed. For a resort that promotes itself as luxury, this kind of policy is unacceptable. As petty as it sounds we were charged simply for some ice to be delivered to the room, something that should be a basic courtesy at a 5-star hotel. The rooms themselves feel a little run-down and in need of maintenance especially around the lagoon access area. Unfortunately we have heard other guests complain about the service and 'it not being what they expected' we agree with these comments. We chose Anantara Dubai Palm Resort & Spa expecting a relaxing, high-end experience worthy of the price, but it has fallen short of expectations so far. Nothing feels 'special' or 'personal' We sincerely hope management takes this feedback seriously and improves the way guests — especially families traveling with young children are treated as currently we feel like 'just another number'.

Wonderful 8th visit to the hotel! The staff keep us coming back as well as the beautiful hotel. I’d like to give Greg a special mention for his fun energy, friendly smile and amazing pool games which the kids thoroughly enjoy!
