Aug 3, 2025 IRF2010 Dubai, United Arab Emirates
To provide context, we stayed 3 nights at the Jumeirah Madinat complex. 1x night in each of Al Qasr, Dar Al Masyaf and finally Mina Al Salam. MaS was the most expensive of the 3, but unfortunately, we found it the worst of the 3.

To provide context, we stayed 3 nights at the Jumeirah Madinat complex. 1x night in each of Al Qasr, Dar Al Masyaf and finally Mina Al Salam. MaS was the most expensive of the 3, but unfortunately, we found it the worst of the 3.
Overall:
We stayed in Room 311, which offered a fantastic ocean view and was the closest to the beach compared to nearby options like Al Qasr. The A/C worked perfectly, which we appreciated after some poor experiences elsewhere.
Positives:
• Beautiful ocean view from the room.
• Excellent beach access, just steps away—ideal for families.
• Unlike other properties we stayed at, the air conditioning functioned properly and kept the room comfortably cool.
Negatives:
• The bathroom felt outdated, as though the rest of the room had been renovated but the bathroom was left behind.
• The bed setup was disappointing—joined twin beds with a dip in the middle made for an uncomfortable sleep.
• Dining at Hanaaya was a letdown. The atmosphere was more like a club or bar, with terrible music and limited food variety, especially when compared to Arboretum. Both breakfast and dinner lacked options, yet pricing was the same.
Overall:
While the view and beach proximity were great, the dining experience, room comfort, and outdated bathroom left us disappointed. We will not be returning to this resort.
