Designed as a tribute to Dubai's sea-faring past, it is a harbourside hotel from which waterways and walkways extend to all parts of the complex including nine restaurants and bars, the award-winning Talise Spa and a traditional-style Souk Madinat Jumeirah featuring 75 boutique shops, bars and cafés. Traditional Middle Eastern style and luxurious modernity create a haven of Arabian warmth, and the spacious guest rooms are beautifully furnished with private balconies overlooking the sea.

What an incredible stay at the Mina A Salam. We had the club and half board package. If you can afford it, do not hesitate about booking the club package. The Amal Club Lounge was outstanding and so worth the extra money. You get breakfast, afternoon tea and unlimited sun downers during the happy hour. A huge thank you to the incredible staff who are a huge credit to the hotel, Bernard, Shipu, Fanni and Fatima - you are all amazing and so friendly. You made our stay so special. Also a huge thank you to the incredible Imtiaz from the beach, who made sure we had sun loungers everyday and always greeted us with a smile - you too, are a credit to the hotel. I have stayed in Dubai’s best hotels and nothing compares to the service, and clientele in the Mina A Salam. We can’t to return.

Heard about so many cut backs I was a little reluctant to stay again as we stayed in 2011 . Wow as soon as we arrived there was a welcome drink for us . Maryam was on reception and what a happy and helpful person she is .
Maryam could see how tired I was so she said she would do her best to get us to our room as soon as possible .
Every staff we came in contact with couldn't do enough for us . The door men , buggy boys and the Abra people 5* to all of them . The room was lovely , not many hotels now have a turn down I'm glad Jumeirah still do . The E Butler made my life easier for the week . I have only one negative that is the infinity pool has no loungers and you have to use the beach . That didnt take away what a fab week we had .

We had an excellent stay at Jumeirah Mina A Salam. The hotel is well organised and the staff are professional. The breakfast had an amazing selection and sitting on the terrace was a great start to the day.

The sun loungers on the beach are great, a nice place to spend a few hours.
A special thank you goes to our housekeeper Riduan, I have never had a cleaner and better organised room in my life. Thank you for going the extra mile Riduan.

We recently stayed at Jumeirah Mina A’ Salam as a family of 17 and were absolutely impressed by every aspect of our experience. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed and genuinely cared for. The entire team made sure each member of our large family—from the youngest to the eldest—felt comfortable, valued, and pampered.
The hotel’s elegant Arabian architecture, the breathtaking views of the sea and Madinat waterways, and the easy access to the beach created a magical atmosphere. The spacious rooms, exquisite dining options, and world-class hospitality exceeded all our expectations.
Special thanks to the guest relations team for accommodating all our needs seamlessly and always with a smile. We never felt like guests; we felt like part of a well-loved story unfolding within the resort.
We returned home with hearts full of gratitude and minds full of unforgettable memories. Looking forward to our next visit already!

We’ve not been back to the resort in a couple of years, partly because we’ve been exploring other parts of the world, but it was so nice to be ‘home’! The hotel has been modernised and re-updated since we were last there. The welcome is warm the staff are brilliant. In particular Francesca in the lounge as well as Bernard who worked in the lounge were so attentive. By the pool, Abbasi make sure we were well looked after every time we visited. The food is sublime.
Some of our friends were staying at Jumeirah Beach Hotel and after a visit to the waterpark, we decided to sit on the beach in front of Jumeirah Beach Hotel. A member of staff came over and because we said we were at another hotel they asked us to leave. We said that we were just sitting and not using any of the amenities and they threatened to call security. Residence of the entire resorted to be honest, this wasn’t made clear to us that we weren’t able to visit the other hotels. This was rude and threatening to call security when we were a residence of one of the hotels in the resort was a bit much.
