A gem of a hotel, the spectacular Ritz-Carlton, Dubai has a wealth of amenities. Guests can enjoy a total of six swimming pools, including two exclusively for children (happily set in the shade!) and one solely for adults. There’s a choice of rooms and suites, including Club rooms with access to the Club Lounge with benefits such as premium alcohol served from 12:00pm-10:00pm and five food presentations! The hotel's Italian restaurant Splendido is something of a local legend. But don't miss Amaseena, their magical tented Bedouin village set right beside the sea, serving traditional regional specialities that can be enjoyed whilst listening to the haunting background strains of the oud and the tabla. As all first-class hotels in Dubai do, this hotel overlooks its own stretch of private beach, where pristine white sands are lapped gently by azure waters. A wonderful place to relax, topping up your tan perhaps, indulging in a variety of water sports or simply reading that book you’ve been wanting to for ages now! There are plenty of shaded areas too, private nooks to call your own, and unbeatable service from the La Baie Lounge. All of this, plus an indulgent spa, exciting kids club and a great location, ensures a holiday you’ll remember forever!

We returned from The Ritz-Carlton Dubai two days ago and we are still raving about our stay!
The entire resort is stunning and impeccably maintained. What impressed us most was the service – attentive, warm, and always one step ahead, anticipating our wishes before we even expressed them.
We celebrated my husband’s birthday there and were surprised with a beautifully decorated room, local delicacies, and a truly thoughtful gift – an unforgettable moment!
A heartfelt thank you to the amazing team:
• Negi & Herbert took care of our room with great attention and reliability.
• Hnin welcomed us to breakfast every morning with a warm smile and addressed us by name.
• Raju ensured that no breakfast wish was left unfulfilled and was always friendly and accommodating.
• Su made every day at La Baie by the pool feel extra special.
Every staff member we met – not just those mentioned above – was exceptionally kind, supportive, and genuinely committed to making our stay memorable.
We will definitely be back – this hotel is a place where you don’t just feel welcome, you feel genuinely cared for.

We’ve just come back from a fabulous 13-night stay at The Ritz Carlton Dubai. The hotel is fantastic but the staff really made our stay special.
A special mention to Mukesh in Caravan who was always a delight at breakfast and ensured we had a takeaway breakfast before our early departure which was very kind.
A special mention too for the pool staff and in particular Rim who looked after us with beds, towels and plenty of cold water during our stay, he worked tirelessly and is a credit to the hotel.
Thank you too to the housekeeping staff who were wonderful and so kind - Sandeep, Biswas, Anna, Behara, Keshab and the rest of the team were phenomenally attentive and kept our room spotless.
The rooms, food, pools, beach and general ambiance were just wonderful and the staff are just fabulous - we’ll certainly be returning.
