Great hotel!
It is located, of course, a little far from Dubai, but we took excursions. The city itself is quite calm and boring for fans of an active lifestyle, but in general, nothing prevents you from getting to the big cities.
There is no alcohol at all. But there is a delicious hookah (aka shisha) in the sofa restaurant.
They clean up well.
There is a large selection of food (a lot of salads, pickles, lamb kebab, beef and chicken, turkey and beef bacon, halal sausages and sausages (they taste very different from ours, apparently due to the lack of flavor enhancers), Thai seafood, crabs.
Some of the drinks include only water, while soft al inclusive adds coffee, tea and juices.
Attached a video of the room, sea view and breakfast/lunch)
I was glad that dinner is until 23.00.
The beach is sandy. The sea is best at 7-8 in the morning when there was a high tide overnight. By evening, the tide is out and it gets shallow, plus it's already dirtier.
Of the cons: after dinner, it's difficult to get water and drinks anywhere. Extrapay only. Therefore, it is better to take water in advance at the beach bar (it is open until 17 o'clock). When cleaning, put 2-3 bottles. Another disadvantage is the air conditioner. Which even at a temperature of 26 degrees makes a freezer in the room, but you can just set the ventilation mode.
The beach and pool are open until sunset (17-18 hours) it gets dark early here. It's already dark at 18.

We've been through Maria 2025
Positive:
- large room,
- spacious bathroom with a bathtub and a large shower,
- change of linen and towels daily
- excellent variety of food, the products are always fresh
- the beach is sandy, the entrance to the sea is quite comfortable, although not ideal, there are a lot of pebbles and shells underfoot
- There have always been places on the beach, but the hotel was far from fully operational.
Of the significant disadvantages:
- very close to the hotel, literally visible from the balcony, there is a large oil terminal and cargo port. The queue of tankers for loading stretches along the entire horizon. When the filled tanker departs, black smoke from its pipes spreads across the sky and reaches the shore - you lie on the beach, breathing smoke. And with a northerly wind, toxic emissions flow directly from the port and terminal towards the hotel. It feels like you are not relaxing at the sea, but in an industrial area.,
- there is a wide noisy avenue next to the hotel, you will not be able to have a quiet rest under the sound of the waves,
- the beach is not cleaned at all, cigarette butts in the sand, garbage from the sea - everything remains lying there, no one cares.,
- water is supplied to the room daily at a quota of 2 bottles of 0.5 and 2 more on request, for all additional charges. I had to stock up at the pool bar.
- the service in the hotel is definitely not 5*, maximum 4*. They give 2 towels per person + a foot towel, and then one day they managed to put 2 under,
- in the hotel restaurant the staff can not cope with cleaning / serving, while they work very slowly
- we got a room with very poor lighting, although there were several lighting fixtures, but all were dim.
- well, traditionally, there is no provision at all for where to dry beach accessories, and there is nowhere to fully hang towels in the bathroom. There's even only one clothes hook. But this is a sin everywhere, the usual household comfort of guests is completely not thought out, although there is a place for both rods and hooks.
I strongly do not recommend this hotel to anyone, especially people with lung and bronchial diseases and families with young children.
