Centara Mirage Beach Resort Dubai

The hotel

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.

We stayed here 2 nights Service 5 star Was busy but staff attentive Mr villas assistant manager excellent Ronu also gave us free milk for children Salmon and Aung Moe cleaned the room very nicely. Overall a very mellow kids resort highly recommend 👌 water park nice with decent rides and adults dont need to go on scary rides to please kids. The kids have small clubs and magic shows so they be entertained. BB also as a receptionist was very nice So all staff good. Food was really good but I am a bit spoilt as I love the restaurants outside resort. Lol 😆 anyway come on down dont stress when you see foyer busy with kids and families once you got room just chill and for the dads with that extra few pounds dont worry no one is taking notes just be yourself and jump in the pool...
