Centara Mirage Beach Resort Dubai

Dubai Beach, Dubai

Virgin rating

The hotel

This is the first of the Centara resorts in the UAE, and they’ve pulled out all the stops to create the ultimate family themed family resort to make your dream holiday come true. Inspired by mythical Thai and magical Arabian adventures, everything has been taken into consideration when it comes to suiting family trips, with interconnecting rooms and bunk beds available for all family sizes, and there’s even a childrens spa to sit alongside the adults one, so they can have their fair share of pampering too – after all, it’s tiring going down the water slides all day long! If you want to add that extra touch to your stay, upgrade to a Mirage room for access to the Family club lounge, complete with family-friendly check-in and a kids’ play area. It will be hard to pull them away from the adventure water park for food though, complete with water slides, high ropes, and a lazy river – it’s unlikely you’ll see much of them in the day, especially with the E-zone too. If this is the case, sneak away to the rooftop bar and enjoy a sundowner cocktail or a spot of shisha before dinner, overlooking the Arabian gulf.

This hotel is beautiful! We stayed January 2025 for 6 nights. As a family of five the rooms were plenty big enough and staff offered to service everyday. The facilities within the resort are amazing too! So so much to do and see everyday. Perfect for families! The outdoors pools are heated which is great for younger ones. And everything is kept immaculately clean. One stand our staff member was lifeguard for the children’s splash pad, Ujjal. He was so fantastic with my two year old son, who was a little nervous of the larger sprinklers and he actually moved some and gave him such confidence to us the little slide! Thank you Ujjal 😁 All staff were actually so good with the children, and adult alike. So friendly and accommodating. Food was also so so good. For mainly buffet style it’s always super tasty and warm. The Thai restaurant and top floor was outstanding. Sands (pool side one) was also good, but we didn’t know they did a buffet on one day and unfortunately that was quite disappointing. But overall amazing. Would also definitely book into the uno restaurant the steak was delicious! Would 100% recommend for a family holiday! Thank you all, we’ll be back one day for sure! Read less

This resort and its facilities exceeded our expectations. Pools were outstanding and so much to do just within the hotel. Included in our family room was the use of the family lounge. Amazing breakfasts, afternoon tea and evening cocktails and mocktails for the kids all included! Our daughter is allergic to nuts and when we enquired about the ingredients of some of the cakes (which were all incredible), the chef insisted on making our daughter her own personal cake. All staff couldn’t do enough for you. One of our favourites was one of the lifeguards, Kingsley, who was so great with the kids and always up for a chat. Would definitely book again. Can’t recommend highly enough. Read less
