I had reservation in this hotel for two-queen room for my family (2 adults + 1 child, 8 years ) When we came to hotel we were offered a room with only 2 queen beds. The manager can't give any plausible explanation where the child was supposed to sleep (the reservation clearly says 2 adults + 1 chd) and we were asked to pay ridicluous additional payment about $700 just for extra bed. Just checked the booking site - the same room is still available for 3 persons (of course without mentioning of any extra payments). So be carefull with such type of reservations - you'll be charged extra. I personally never have experienced such problems in any hotel traveling with a child, if you book 2adults + 1 child it always included a bed for a child. Read less

Just got back from our second stay at this amazing five-star hotel, and we’re already planning our next visit! We were here last month and were so impressed that we had to return this month. The hotel is absolutely stunning! Check-in was a breeze, and our room was huge. We have to mention that the pool is seriously the best in the UAE! Even when it gets busy, it never feels overcrowded because of its spacious design. The pool bar service is excellent, with dedicated waiters for each area. Our waiter for this month, Momodu, was super attentive and truly make sure that we get everything that we need. With different dining options available, we chose to go to Reunion for a la carte dinner, and it was an experience in itself! The service is top-notch. Our waiter, Technicious, and his supervisor Raegan were fantastic. They were incredibly attentive, full of good energy, and provided excellent food recommendations with a smile 😁. Plus, it was a lovely touch that Hilary, the restaurant director, came by to greet us personally. And the food? Simply amazing! From appetizers to main courses and desserts, everything was delicious. Overall, we had a premium service experience and will definitely be coming back again! Read less
