The pool restaurant served a good range of food, and the quality was not compromised. Breakfast and dinner buffet was extremely good, but the the cream was Varq, their high end Indian Restaurant. The paneer was one of the best I have had, but their dal makhani was the best, bettering even Daal Bukhara in ITC Maurya in Delhi. Taj will be my choice of hotel in Dubai whenever I visit. Read less

The Taj Exotica at the Palm is a real delight. We've stayed in many properties in Dubai and at the Palm but this one really stands out. The service, the special attention to the smallest details, the cleanliness, the quality of food are all outstanding. A special mention for the beautiful lighting in the lawn and Pool area post sunset. This is special as it does not make it a dark resort feeling. Raia and In room F&B perfect. We wish the team all the best and look forward to visiting again. Read less
