From the moment I arrived, my stay at Waldorf Astoria Palm Jumeirah was pure perfection, the check-in was smooth, the room upgrade was the best, offering great views of Burj Al Arab. The service was top notch, especially by Omar and Lawrence at the beach who were above and beyond to make sure I’m comfortable with prepared sunbeds and cold water. The food was fantastic, the pizza, fruit bowl and passion fruit mojito were all delicious. I also really liked the pool area, in which they provided thoughtful touches like cold towels and water. The breakfast buffet was incredible with a wide variety of fresh juices and delicious dishes. I cannot wait to return! Thank you to all the staff but in particular: Merci, Phyu, Omar, Mohit, Paul, Htet Lwin and Alannah. Read less

The service at the beach is topnotch. I find Laurice very helpful and attentive. The spa facility is heaven, and we enjoyed the steam room and jacuzzi. Alyssa made our experience at the spa very convenient and extra special.

Once again the best part of this hotel is the amazing staff down at the beach Raj Sankar Mr Kalhid Akram Lawerence Dinesh Mr Kalhid or Dinesh always had the Sunbeds ready for us & was on hand with cold water making sure we kept cool and hydrated. Ice cold face towels were a big help in the 50.c heat as well as Lawerence with the water spray that helped keep us cool. The lifeguards Raj & Sankar down at the beach were very friendly always said hello & wave to us when we went in the sea. Raj made sure to keep the cool water & ice coming. Raj also had some floats that could be used in the sea which was a big help on the really hot days! We could have our sunglasses cleaned everyday down at the beach much appreciated. Palm Avenue at the beach again was wonderful they opened at 10am & the staff came down to see us to make sure we were ok, & if we needed anything. Ice cream down at the beach is always a treat & they have lots of different options. Ojo from Palm Avenue had been on his annual leave when we arrived at the hotel. He has been looking after us since we first came in 2019 & on his return to work he come down to the beach to see us which was so nice as we thought we would miss him this year. Food was amazing the team at Mezzerie were all amazing. Chef Rahul is one of the nicest guys you can meet he was so helpful with my sister’s allergies & always came over to say hello. The chef that was on the grill at night always had a big smile for us & would grill the perfect steak(Sorry I never got his name) Nithya was so helpfully with explaining the full ingredients in all the desserts this was a big help with my sister allergies. All the chefs are friendly & offer beautiful food & amazing service Bhagirath from housekeeping kept our room clean & stocked up we never ran out of anything. Even with me pulling the bed covers apart at night the bed was alway perfectly made for the next night Pathum at turndown service is so creative with towel art. Coming back at night it was so fun to see what he had made next. There was work being done in the hotel when we stayed. We where on the 3rd floor & it looked like the full 4th floor was being done out. I just want to say how quiet the work men where & how clean the hotel was kept. There were sheets up around the 4th floor so I think this definitely helped to keep the volume down & the hotel clean. Definitely will be coming back to this hotel it was our 4 time & still everything was perfect. Read less

From the moment we arrived at Waldorf Astoria Dubai Palm Jumeirah, we knew we had made the right choice for our honeymoon. After a fantastic solo stay last year, this hotel was the only place I even considered—and it somehow managed to exceed our already high expectations. Every detail, from the welcome to the farewell, was handled with care and elegance. The staff consistently went above and beyond to make our stay feel personal, seamless, and unforgettable. Housekeeping, led by the exceptional Arjun, kept our suite immaculate throughout our stay. Small, thoughtful touches—like arranging daily hot water with honey and ginger when we had sore throats adjusting to the climate—made us feel genuinely cared for. At the Front Desk, Nadeem, Deepak, and Nazar were always on hand with a warm smile, offering help, local tips, and handling every request with total professionalism and ease. Breakfast at Mezzerie was a daily highlight. The team not only remembered how we liked our coffee and eggs but greeted us each morning like old friends. Jasan and Kusum truly stood out—anticipating our needs before we even voiced them, and creating such a warm, welcoming atmosphere. The entire team—Manish, Nadeem, Nica, Nirmali, Laxmi, Kushan, Saru, Hermae, Gayan, Ravindra, Shoaib, and Wasim—were incredibly polished and personable. The spa was a peaceful retreat. From the moment we stepped in, Foisal Miah, Rahema, and Allysa made us feel instantly relaxed. The facilities were spotless, serene, and expertly managed—an absolute sanctuary after a day in the sun. Speaking of the sun, Pabit, Vamshi, and Mohit at the pool area were phenomenal. Always present but never intrusive, they kept us hydrated, shaded, and entirely comfortable as we soaked up the Dubai sunshine. This was more than just a luxury stay—it was a perfectly orchestrated experience filled with warmth, genuine hospitality, and attention to every little detail. My wife’s first visit to Dubai couldn’t have been more special, and that’s entirely down to the incredible team at the Waldorf. Highly recommended for anyone looking to create lasting memories in Dubai. We'll be back—again and again. Read less
