Our stay at Jumeirah Mina Al Salam was absolutely wonderful from start to finish. The hotel is only a short ride from Dubai International Airport, making it very convenient to get to after a long flight. Check in was seamless, the staff were fantastic and even upgraded us, which was a lovely surprise.
The room was fantastic. Beautifully designed, spotlessly clean, and incredibly comfortable, with a massive bed and a great view of the canal. For anyone who enjoys sports like I do, the wide variety of sports channels showing live sport from around the world was a real bonus.
The resort itself is stunning, set within the Madinat Jumeirah complex with direct beach access, beautiful pools, and easy access to excellent restaurants. Breakfast as usual is unmatched. Best buffet I’ve ever had. The staff throughout the property were exceptional and nothing was ever too much trouble, and they went out of their way to make our stay special. The WhatsApp messaging service was also a brilliant touch, allowing us to contact any team instantly and get quick, friendly responses every time.
We really enjoyed the activities on offer, especially turtle watching and paddle boarding, as well as the excellent fitness classes available daily. The facilities were world class and everything felt perfectly maintained.
The only downside during our stay was a visit to the new Marsa Al Arab property the buggy driver dropped us quite far away in the hot conditions, and getting into the hotel wasn’t the best experience due to an over-zealous security guard. However, this was a very minor issue compared to the outstanding service and hospitality we received throughout our stay.
Overall, Mina Al Salam is an exceptional resort that combines luxury, comfort, and genuine warmth. From the amazing staff to the beautiful setting and thoughtful amenities, it truly exceeded expectations. We can’t wait to return!
