We stayed in this beautiful hotel from October 13th to 20th. They were picked up from Dubai airport in a separate car, which is very convenient. We were at the hotel about 10, surprisingly we were immediately checked in, for which we thank them very much) the room was on the 8th floor, clean, large, well cleaned. The room has a hair dryer, a coffee machine, all accessories (toothbrush, paste, nail file, iron, ironing board, etc.), there is an iceroom on each floor if you want to have a cold drink in the room. The beach is not big, the sand is white, there are pebbles when entering the water, the water can be cloudy. Life hack: if you go in from the far right side, there are almost none. During our stay, the breakwater was repaired, so from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. we stayed on the beach to the sounds of an excavator. The sunbeds are normal, there are refrigerators with water, a towel according to the cards, change as much as you want. The food in the restaurant is normal, there is everything for every taste, everything is delicious. There is always live music and ballroom dancing during the day, an aesthete's dream.

The most comfortable Hotel for families with children, the entire management of the hotel has tried very hard for this. The rooms are comfortable to stay in , the bathroom is generally admired , the breakfasts are varied. As a holiday lunch and dinner . Very dignified . We lived on the 33rd floor ! The view is fantastic. I highly recommend it.

I don't understand how this hotel has 5 points, apparently the people who gave reviews here are used to living in tents, and they generally don't understand the essence of a 5-star luxury hotel....
You need to understand that this is a Rixos hotel, this chain belongs to 5+ hotels (luxury five-star hotels), in fact, they couldn't get this hotel up to the luxury level here, then why:
1) there are a lot of broken places or poorly repaired, there are broken mirrors on the floors, there are many places in the pools where tiles or mosaics fell off, they did not restore, and they left.
2) In general, the restaurants are low-level, very low-level... there is a buffet for breakfast, lunch and dinner, everything is fine and there is a large selection, but there is an Italian restaurant, an Asian and some kind of incomprehensible (people's restaurant), they do not represent anything special, the menu is small, the choice is weak, the waiters are of low level of training, in the same people's restaurant a lot of dishes with French fries, so much for haute cuisine.
3) a gym without an administrator and trainings, entrance according to the room map, inside is empty, there are no people, if you ask something, then there is no one
4) spa and sauna area, low level
5) and finally, the weakest point is that the hotel does not have at least something related to marine leisure, all hotels nearby have catamaran rides, boots, jet skis and so on, right there, it is simply missing, it is tough. I have not seen more than one 5-star hotel, on the seashore / ocean/ lake, which would not have a dick at all, even saps are not rented, this is how strange it is.
6) well, it is clear that there are no other attributes, such as a cigar room and so on, they are not present in 5-star luxury hotels, this is the standard.
In general, it is obvious that they wanted to make a cool and luxury hotel, but something went wrong and left everything as it is, the official website says that this hotel has some things in development (the same cigar room), but apparently they will not do it here, apparently it will just be an ordinary one the hotel is 5 stars, just with the inscription Rixos, and so, there are many hotels nearby with a higher level, for the same money.
P/S it is clear that the year 2025 is coming soon, and things like a cigar smoking room may already be a relic of the past in luxury hotels, but the fact that there is no marine leisure, poor cuisine in restaurants, broken things come across in places that do not change, it is depressing

In September, we spent an almost wonderful vacation with the whole family at this hotel. Almost - because when leaving the hotel, an unpleasant situation occurred, which introduced a "fly in the ointment". But, first of all, about the hotel - everything was at the highest level - food, service, cleaning, the territory, although small, but cozy, well-planned and well-groomed. The beach is small, private, with strong tides in the morning, so it's not suitable for those who like to swim far and deep.
We stayed in the Senior Suite. The travel company from which we bought the tour indicated in the information form that there are privileges in this room - early check-in and late check-out. Therefore, on the day of departure, we did not rush to the reception, but arrived at 15-00. But the manager presented us with a bill of 1000 dirhams, saying that check-out from the hotel at 12 o'clock. He did not respond to our explanations and a link to information about late departure from the tour operator. In general, we paid 1000 dirhams, but there was an unpleasant aftertaste, because a hotel of this level could show loyalty to customers, because we were not just "late, forgot", etc. - we were sure that we could rent the room later, as the tour operator stated.
In general, the hotel is really wonderful, but the attitude towards the guests should be at a high level, and in controversial situations, show loyalty to them, and not balk at three hours and sell the bill.
It really blurred the impression of the hotel.

In general, the hotel is very decent , everything is new , but on the 5th day everything looks different , the waiters practically do not speak English at all, coffee can be ordered 4 times, they just forget about you , the staff is sorely lacking when the hotel is full! At lunch, dinner, and breakfast, people walk all the time with carts between the tables and dump food into these carts, to put it mildly, it doesn't look very good at all! The room is cleaned very well , the waiters in the bar ignore , 2 people for 3 pools , the evening program is very weak! Everything closes at 22-30! We ordered a cocktail at 22-50 , the waiter looked demonstratively , but the clock , they say , we are almost closed , definitely does not pull 5 stars ! For this money , it's not worth it , 3 + for the service , 4 for the reception , 4 for the Pool , 3+ food ( for 7 days , all the same ) 5 high- quality alcohol ! We wanted to book a restaurant , there is even a whole position through whom to do it ) but in the end , the person is always not there , it was not possible to eat , then they wanted to make a purchase in the store , in general , the whole story 😂😂 we spent two days on this, the issue was not resolved ) in general, a 5-star hotel definitely does not pull ) it was fine for the first time ; we definitely will not go the second time)

Rixos Marina Abu Dhabi is, in fact, a city hotel located on the seashore (the Persian Gulf, of course, but the "sea" is faster to write). The territory of the hotel is very small. The same small beach is fenced off from the outside world by a stone embankment that turns the sea into a pool with salt water. In the season, it is almost impossible to find free sunbeds after 10.00. If you want to lie on the beach, get up earlier. The sand is muddy in places, slimy to the touch, like the bottom of a bathroom in which the water has not been changed for several years, plus a lot of small sharp stones that remained after construction and were not removed. In the center of the beach and on the right the approach is even more or less, and on the left everything is very bad. Earlier, someone wrote that work was being done at the hotel, a water park was being built. At the end of autumn 2023, there is no water park, and personally I have not found any traces of its approaching appearance.
I have not left negative reviews for a long time, and even now I am not eager to curse the next "five" of the famous Turkish chain, but, for a number of points, Rixos Marina Abu Dhabi turned out to be even worse than the Dubai Rixos The Palm Dubai Hotel & Suites. I'm not "overeager", just for the money that is now being asked for accommodation in Rixos Marina Abu Dhabi, this hotel is a disappointment. With all the external respectability, there is not much positive in it.
Half of the building you see in all the photos is occupied by the hotel, and the other half is occupied by the Fairmont apartments. I don't know what kind of collaboration this is - either Rixos bought half of the house, or vice versa, or it was built together, but right in the hotel building, on the floor with restaurants, there is a corner (sorry for another Americanism) for the sale of Fairmont apartments. That is why guests staying at the hotel have to wear bracelets all the time – after all, the owners and tenants of the apartments also stay on the territory, which need to be distinguished somehow. And that's why you won't get a drink at the bar if you don't have a bracelet. Such is the greeting from Turkey "zero" ... And yes, if you leave in the afternoon, you will have to twist to "break the system" and get food, drinks and the notorious paid towels. My children were especially impressed by these bracelets, who repeatedly asked what it is and whether it is possible to remove it? By the way, after a couple of days of rest, it turned out that children can be removed. And even later it became clear that it was not necessary to do this, since children are no longer perceived as guests if, for example, they try to order juice or a milkshake at the bar on their own. In general, we got smart here with bracelets, we haven't seen this for a long time.
We are two adults and two children (7 and 10 years old). We arrived at the hotel at one o'clock in the afternoon, we were settled immediately – this is a fact. There were no welcome drinks – also a fact. The mini-bar in the room is paid, but if you immediately refuse it, you do not need to pay a deposit upon check-in. And that's why it turned out that our children ate fewer chocolates and chips during the rest.
We lived in the Family Room (Two Bedroom Family Room) — this is a regular connection of two rooms, one of which has one large bed, and the other two are also large. This was necessary, since we like when there are a lot of baths with toilets, and in suites it is not a fact that this will happen. Upon check-in, it turned out that the view is not to the courtyard, but to the street (Corniche). And we didn't need that. The reception assured that all family rooms are facing the street, but I'm sure that's not the case. I took a ready-made tour through an operator (Anex) in February, long before the trip. And I'm ready to vouch that then the operator had family rooms for sale with a view of the courtyard and the street. And I chose with a view of the courtyard, more expensive. Over the past six months, the names of the rooms seem to have changed. Now, for example, instead of Courtyard, they write Seaview, which, of course, is logical, but that deprived us of a room with the "right" view. Minus the operator and the hotel for this, because the street view is so-so (see photo). In fact, only the Marina Mall shopping center, located across the street, is visible from the low floors (we were settled on the fifth floor, although I specifically noted the desire for a high floor in the booking).
Marina Mall is, of course, a plus for the hotel, although this is hardly the merit of the hotel itself. In these harsh times of Western sanctions and the departure of various sellers from the country, Marina Mall is an outlet for any avid shopaholic. For his sake, some even come here specially to rest: you crossed the road, and you are already in paradise! As the girl at the Rixy Club said, parents often hand over their children and immediately go to the store. If you're lucky, you'll even get a ride to the road or back in the hotel's electric car. The walk will take five to seven minutes. Well, ten. At the same time, Marina Mall is a minus, especially if you have windows overlooking it. For example, your wife wakes up, sits down at a table to drink coffee and starts a conversation that "I need to go to the Marina today, I forgot to buy more there yesterday...". And so every day. Minus, in short. Minus your wallet.
Rixy Club is small, but not bad. There is a playground on the street, with a pool for kids. They play cartoons in the evenings. There is also a place to run and play in the clubhouse if it's really hot outside. The girls from the staff are responsive, reasonable and the club's program is quite diverse. During the week of our stay at the hotel, the club twice organized wide festivities on the street – they held a Rixy Fest and celebrated Halloween. They inflated a children's town for jumping ropes, decorated the territory in every possible way, and so on.
Let's go back to the rooms. They're good. The renovation is fresh (which is logical, the hotel has recently opened), neat. Villeroy & Boch plumbing. The furniture is of high quality, only heavy, inconvenient for rearrangement. With the electrics, they overdid it a little. The sockets in the room have small switches and are turned off by default, what else you need to guess. You can't turn on the hair dryer in the bathroom, and the cord is very short and stretches very hard, which has become the subject of numerous complaints from my wife. Climate control is set to 16 degrees by default, apparently this is the order. While you deal with him, you will turn into an icicle.
Interior doors are VERY heavy and for some reason equipped with closers, so they open with great difficulty, and for young children it is already a whole physical education. And we were always afraid that someone's finger would press down or tear off, since it would not be possible to simply open the doors and leave the passage between the rooms open if the closers were not slightly disassembled. Worse, one of them turned out to be defective and only accelerated the closing of the door, making a terrible roar. Thirty times a day you go from room to room – thirty times it will crash. The door handles, obviously, are not designed for such loads, so on the third day everything fell off completely. Thank you at least that, after calling "who should", they fixed it quickly. Of the Russian TV channels in the room, Euronews with subtitles, Channel Five, Russia 24, Friday, NTV, TNT, Cartoon, STS. The Internet in my room showed 25 Mbps for input and 45 Mbps for output maximum. On the beach 6/3. On the street in the restaurant and by the pools is bad, less than a megabit.
And, finally, about AI. I really DIDN'T like the local "ol inclusive" (see the power scheme in the photo). He's at Rixos Marina Abu Dhabi weird and wrong. Cheating with a paid mini-bar on ol inclusive outraged me back in Dubai, but the local Rixos surpassed everyone! And it's not about the quality of food, everything is just fine with that. If anyone is afraid that there will be no scrambled eggs for breakfast or crabs for dinner, do not be afraid. Otherwise, it's a complete failure. A la carte restaurants are all paid. Alcohol until 20.00 at the adult pool bar and until 22.00 at dinner. At the same time, all performances on the street begin at 20.00. And what's the point of watching if they don't pour? Finish. You can, of course, carry beer in cans to the room, as some do, but it's inconvenient, ugly, and in general, what is the money paid for? To sit in the room? In general, we did not watch the evening program, not once, since we only went out for dinner at 20.00. We sat, ate, drank - and went to bed.
The only place in the hotel that works around the clock is the gym. But we, for unknown reasons, did not reach it. Perhaps Marina Mall is to blame? And the employees of the guest relation service walk around the territory and ask Google to leave reviews. At times, my hands literally itched to leave them a review… There are no complaints about the service, really. I try to stay objective until the end, even though I understand that I'm already getting turned on. Therefore, I summarize: you need to go here as a couple for shopping. With children at sea, you need to go to another place.

The hotel's good location relative to the sights of Abu Dhabi, the presence of a good shopping center nearby. Good food in the main restaurant. Nice and friendly waiters (in the main restaurant). I didn't like the People restaurant and the waiters there too. There is imported good alcohol, there is animation. I take 2 stars for the fact that there were hay beetles in the room (small bugs in the bathroom from dampness, the air conditioning system does not work correctly (so that it would not be very cold, I set +50 degrees Celsius) the room was changed to my wife and me, but reluctantly, I looked at several rooms and took only the 4th of them of them, because in all 3 previous ones there were the same bugs in the bathroom. Maybe it was the dampness, there was no balcony in my room and the windows did not open. A Russian-speaking employee (Kazakh) helped solve the problem, there is also a Turkish Indian woman, so this couple communicated provocatively and boorishly. In general, it's fine, but I'm not going here anymore…

Vacationed with my husband at the end of September 2023. This is not the first time in this grid, but this hotel has left mixed impressions. One of the advantages is a great room, a gorgeous view from the 28th floor of the city. Everything is clean, cleaned well. The food and alcohol are decent. There is a good shopping center across the street. There are enough sunbeds on the beach, the sand is almost white. Of the minuses - the main thing is boring, there is absolutely nothing to do in the evenings. No programs, no shows, no parties. Live music sometimes happens right during dinner, but it's not interesting. There is a small children's club, but the children were not interested, there was no entertainment for children either. The sea is just a backwater, we didn't like this idea. There is no complete feeling that you are at sea. The weather at the end of September is still hot, so the water is warmed up in the bathroom. Hot water also flows from the showers on the beach, the pool is heated. There is one with cooling, only they were saved. The territory is small, there is nowhere to walk in the evening.

Not a bad hotel, but not Atlantis, not Atlantis))) the family pool at the bar stinks, as if someone just threw up, and all week. The coolest pool, which is only for adults, - there is music playing, comfortable deck chairs, few people😆Cleaning is not very fast, the queue to the restaurant (we were able to overcome this ailment-you need to know that there are two restaurants there-if you go to the restaurant on the left, if you go down the stairs, there are fewer hungry people running there), there is your own beach, there are not enough sunbeds, alas, many take towels from 8 in the morning and leave. But these are questions for tourists. Thanks to the bump, there are all the charms: muddy bottom, sand whipped by tourists, jellyfish. But there are wonderful beaches within a 30-minute drive. If we talk about tourists- Russians and Kazakhs are the most there, the Russian-speaking staff at the reception is friendly, there are Russian-speaking animators in the children's club. The shopping center is within walking distance-fine. There are no problems with transport, the marina is nearby, high-speed panoramic elevators, live music in the lobby, the buffet is quite good -it's all fine. Some sites are being raked around, it's unclear here, they didn't recognize it - maybe the construction is coming

Плюсы:
вид из окна (у нас был 31 эт); просторный номер; отдельностоящая ванна; скоростной лифт; большое количество бассейнов; приветливые администраторы; оперативное заселение до 15:00 в момент приезда; система умного дома; вип-трансфер; в шаговой доступности отличный ТЦ; каждый вечер выступления певцов;
Минусы:
пляж оцениваю на 2-, т.к. постоянно склизкое дно, мутная вода, частые отливы; ребёнка обожгла медуза, а как выяснилось мы были не первые; песок перепахивали так, что ходить приходилось как по горам;
"all inclusive" вылилось по факту на ресепшн при заселении в массу ограничений, которые нужно держать в голове "где, во сколько, что и как можно есть и пить" и платный мини-бар; коктейли в основе своей не вкусные, но как только вы решите выбрать платный вариант, то картина сразу меняется; уборка в номерах некачественная, не говоря уже о том, что один раз вообще не убрали пока не пожаловались администрации + постоянно разное количество воды ставили, забывали положить халат или нужное количество полотенец; разочаровал гид своим подходом к сопровождению нашего отдыха; неудобный браслет.
С учётом всех + и - отель не дотягивает до 5 звезд. Желания возвращаться НЕТ, т.к. считаю, что стоимость не оправдывает комфорт.

We had a rest with two children from May 8 to May 18, 2023. The hotel is chic, we took a room with two rooms, it is very convenient with children, there is a children's club, there are Russian-speaking animators, the room was on the 30th floor, the view from the window is gorgeous, it's good that there were no balconies because it's safe with children, the beach is good, those who write that the sea is shallow apparently swam at low tide, there is probably not enough space for professional swimmers, but for ordinary people everything is super, in the morning before 10 and after 16 o'clock it is deep enough to swim) the food is varied, the drinks are excellent from 10 am there is a pool bar, at 12:00 another bar opens, in the evening there is a bar on a large pool, there is a show the program, and the hotel bar is open until one o'clock in the morning, all inclusive😊

Nice hotel, large comfortable rooms. Excellent cuisine, lots of meat, fish, fruits. Pasta, steaks, and mutton are cooked. One of the disadvantages is a very small territory, you can stay for a couple of days, then you get bored.

The rooms are very cool, the building is spectacular. At the moment, construction is underway in the inner part of the courtyard, noise and in the rooms during the day there is a feeling that the neighbors are hammering again in the panel house. Great restaurants and delicious food.

We are currently staying at this hotel on April 18, 2024.
Moments: there is no breakfast upon check-in, we paid about 5400 rubles for it for two, we arrived early at 8 a.m., but there was a bonus for us-we were immediately settled according to some kind of program. For the record, this was not offered to everyone. It's hard when I arrived early, and check-in at 15.00, and even without food and basic water. At check-out, they also take off the bracelet at 12.00 and lunch and you are no longer there😏
Let's start with a pleasant one: a beautiful building, a hall, a great room. There is everything you need and a little more in the bathroom, but according to the all-inclusive system-the mini bar is not included😂well, at least they bring drinking water!
Good cleaning, soft towels, bathrobes and slippers are welcome.
Restaurants are beautiful and delicious. There is a choice for lovers of the sea of products. There is only no choice of fish. There is one type of fish, meat or ribs on the grill. There are plenty of vegetables, fruits, and sweets. The most delicious food is served in the street restaurant people. By the way, there is also a beautiful presentation of dishes selected from the menu. The buffet is served only in the restaurant of the main building. As it should be, water, soda and ice cream in individual packages.
Cons: on April 16, there was not a weak downpour. Of course, you can't argue with nature. The lobby was flooded, the waterfall on the stairs of the main hall. The guys tried to eliminate everything. Accordingly, everything regarding the street area was unavailable. Now it's a big DEAL, there is no sea, the water is gone, it turned out to be a natural pool for the baby. The question is where to swim for adults. Today is the 18th. The pool was not cleaned yesterday, today the pools are also not working, but there are no more sun beds and umbrellas on the "sea"! No one is cleaning the pool today. It's very strange. It's just closed for the second day and that's it. That is, there are sun beds by the pool, you can comfortably spend time here, but there is nowhere to swim. The waiter brings drinks endlessly and in general the guys are trying very hard. There are no answers to the questions when we will be able to swim. For a hotel of this category, I think this is unacceptable, it is clear when a downpour is a hurricane, and then what prevents it? The second day is coming to an end.
There is a Marina mall across the street from the hotel. There was also a waterfall in the building in the rain. The locals even went outside and just filmed a video of it raining. It is clear that the buildings are not designed for this. In general, there are two impressions from the organization of rest at the hotel.
Addendum: April 19th! Negligence! The pool is still not cleaned, there is only room in the family pool under the burning sun, there are not enough umbrellas for everything. The hotel disappoints more and more every day. Do you need to get up at 6 in the morning to occupy the sun beds. Nonsense. You can somehow think of places by the pool according to the current situation. They also started some kind of repair. A bump stock has been operating on the territory for two days now. The noise is very annoying. We have been to Rixos hotels before, but this is the first time we have seen such an attitude of the management towards the guests.

Great hotel. A huge territory with several swimming pools. A beach with white sand like in the Maldives. Food is something divine👌 a huge selection, especially delicious sushi every evening. Lovely large rooms. The only negative is that half of the vacationers are huge families of loud Kazakhs.

Overall, a good hotel: new, spacious rooms, good cuisine, fruits. BUT: terrible beach. It is small, the water is stagnant with a characteristic smell, the bottom is muddy. But the worst thing is the rocks at the bottom - razor sharp. Also, the tide is out on the beach in the morning, you can swim only after lunch. At the same time, there are clearly not enough sun beds and umbrellas by the pool.
The hotel is trying to clean the beach somehow with a tractor, but it has been making noise since 5 a.m. and prevents sleep.
As a beach hotel, I do not recommend this, otherwise it is good.

We are having a family vacation at this hotel for the second time. Excellent location, the center of Abu Dhabi with its own beach, 2 minutes walk to the mall. The hotel is modern, the rooms are large, the food is delicious, the staff is attentive.

The hotel does not justify its five stars. The staff is polite and helpful. But! Upon arrival, give out a BRACELET (albeit a fabric one, but this is already the last century) only at 12:00 and at the same time not allow you to go to breakfast. We haven't seen this before. In all 5* hotels, we were always escorted to breakfast, especially if you arrive early in the morning. I couldn't eat for money, so I had to go to a nearby mall. The same thing at check-out, lunch is also not included. It seems to me easier to include these two meals in the total cost, where this amount will not be so noticeable, than to actually pay about 7 thousand per person for lunch, and the impression immediately spoils, since, I repeat, there is no such thing anywhere! Even in Kazakhstan, we were taken to Riksos for breakfast. There were also various other little things, but this struck me the most. This is a discomfort for your guests.
