This is the first of the Centara resorts in the UAE, and they’ve pulled out all the stops to create the ultimate family themed family resort to make your dream holiday come true. Inspired by mythical Thai and magical Arabian adventures, everything has been taken into consideration when it comes to suiting family trips, with interconnecting rooms and bunk beds available for all family sizes, and there’s even a childrens spa to sit alongside the adults one, so they can have their fair share of pampering too – after all, it’s tiring going down the water slides all day long! If you want to add that extra touch to your stay, upgrade to a Mirage room for access to the Family club lounge, complete with family-friendly check-in and a kids’ play area. It will be hard to pull them away from the adventure water park for food though, complete with water slides, high ropes, and a lazy river – it’s unlikely you’ll see much of them in the day, especially with the E-zone too. If this is the case, sneak away to the rooftop bar and enjoy a sundowner cocktail or a spot of shisha before dinner, overlooking the Arabian gulf.

From the moment we arrived, Ahmed went above and beyond to make our experience smooth and enjoyable. He was always polite, attentive, and ready to assist with anything we needed — whether it was booking activities, giving local recommendations, or helping with transportation arrangements.
What stood out most was his genuine friendliness and professionalism. He made us feel truly welcome and taken care of throughout our stay. Ahmed is a true asset to the hotel, and thanks to him, our visit was even more memorable. Highly recommend speaking to him if you're staying at Centara Mirage!
