The hotel

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!

Absolutely fantastic. The staff are amazing-extremely attentive and it seems they all take great pride in their hotel. We opted for club room category and the facilities, food and beverages offered in the club room were the best we’ve had in Dubai. Our garden facing club room was extremely spacious, with thoughtful touches-fruit, high quality toiletries, and extremely professional hotel services staff. We’d opted for the half board dine around package and so far it’s been faultless. Location is amazing-walking distance to the marina and spitting distance to the beach. We’d definitely like to return soon(and we’ve not even left yet!) We Read less
