The food is varied. The dishes are prepared with high quality. Polite service. Towels are changed in the room. The beach is nearby. The water is normal. The hotel and the beach are clean. By location, it loses to the mainland. For a relaxing holiday, that's what you need.

Vacationed at this hotel in March 2023.
The hotel itself evokes positive impressions. So in order:
1. Located on a bulk island. It does not cause discomfort. Very quiet place
2. The beach is private, across the road (there are almost no cars), a golf cart (shuttle) goes to the beach, so if you are too lazy to walk 100 meters, you can take your ass to the beach with a breeze.
3. There is a bar on the beach (who has everything included, free drinks, except cocktails, the rest is paid), sun beds, awnings, a gentle entrance to the water. At low tide, you can find starfish on the shallows. There is an opportunity to ride a jet ski and some other attractions. I don't know the price, we didn't ride.
4. Check-in at the hotel: we arrived at 10 o'clock in the morning, we were checked in at about 12.30, because there were no available rooms. We must pay tribute to the staff that we were constantly kept informed when the room would be ready, despite the fact that check-in at 14)))
5. In the evening, if you leave the hotel, then you can meet wild foxes about 100m away, they were specially brought to the island to catch rodents, but as it turned out it was easier for them to walk and beg for food from people or eat in hotel dumps))), they are not tame, but they come close enough to a person, absolutely friendly, a lot of foxes with them.
6. Infrastructure: it simply does not exist outside the hotel)) in addition to one recreation area in the form of a park with benches and a playground, there is a tennis court, a football field, a small park, an embankment with benches, a couple of cafes on the territory of the hotel. There is a heated swimming pool on site.
7. The dining room of the hotel is a separate story :) at the entrance, you will be marked according to the list that you can eat, and then you never know who will eat something extra.
8. If anyone is interested in driving to the city, then it's only by taxi. Public stransport is practically absent in the UAE. The price of a trip to the city is about 1800 rubles. for our money, in local currency it is about 60-65 dirhams.
The rooms are excellent, everything is relatively new, cleaning almost every day.

The hotel is beautiful, located on the 1st line; it is a 5-minute walk to the sea, as soon as you leave the hotel door, they immediately offer to take you to the sea on a golf cart. The beach is sandy, the bottom is sand, without sudden changes in depth. The services at the hotel are as expected for a 5* hotel. We took breakfast , a wide range of dishes, everything is very fresh and delicious. The staff is very friendly, if something ends up in the room, everything will be brought or replaced immediately upon request. The rooms are spacious and clean. Everything is perfect, the rest was great, it was very cool here! We will come back again and recommend it to our friends.

The territory is well maintained, but small. The rooms are tired, but big and everything works. Bathrobes are available on request, as well as a sewing kit. The staff is polite, there are Russian speakers at the reception. The food is very tasty, the choice is not huge, as in Egypt and Turkey at 5*. But if you don't eat much there, then in Ras el Khaimah you eat everything and everything is delicious. The sea is warm and clean. The beach is seashell sand. There is not much animation for children except for the pirates' room and slot machines, we were there once. On the beach you can catch crabs and sand crabs and stars in the water. Children are interested. There is no animation for adults. There is only one disadvantage of the hotel: there is no civilization around. To the shops by taxi. Taxis are expensive. When the whole island can be completed and shops will appear, but now there is nothing around like a desert. Well, it's far from the capital and Dubai. Don't believe the stories about one hour. We arrived in Dubai and drove 4.5 hours to the place! When choosing a tour, watch the departure and arrival from Sharjah.

Nice hotel. "Five arrivals of the early 2000s", a little already patched up, but quite cozy. The kitchen is a cannon, the pool and the pool area are pleasant, the pool bar has a slow staff. The beach is so-so, the hotel is not to blame, it's all about the location of the beach on the inner coast of an artificial island, the water is stagnant, algae, there are no waves at all, even minimal, during low tide - it's not a buzz at all.

The hotel has no infrastructure, there is a construction site around, you can only go somewhere by taxi or on an excursion, you have to stand in a kilometer-long queue for everything to eat, you can't set up air conditioning in the rooms, it will always blow cold, just turn it off completely, there are not even changing rooms on the beach that is tied to the hotel

I am currently vacationing in this hotel, 503 rooms with a beautiful view from the balcony, before the trip I read several negative reviews and got upset.But in vain!Harmful people will find something to complain about everywhere! The food is delicious, you will find something to eat, taking into account your own characteristics.
The rooms are cleaned every day. The room stock may not be the newest, but it is good.The staff is polite, they do their job well.They try to provide good service. There is a tourist fee, there is no deposit, which is also what they wrote in the reviews ...
It all depends on you for entertainment, there are a lot of very cool excursions, you will not be bored.There is a lot to see and go to in the UAE. I did not stay at the hotel for days.I am very happy with my vacation. And the little things can always be solved if we talk. I'll bet 5+

A great hotel, I liked everything: the quality of cleaning, restaurant staff, delicious food. Breakfast and lunch or dinner were enough for us, since there is a large time interval for eating. Earlier I read reviews that construction work is underway nearby to improve the territory, but this does not interfere in any way, the passage to the sea is excellent, it takes 3 minutes to walk, you can take a ride on a golf cart. When the work is completed, I believe that the price will increase, so I recommend visiting 5 stars for a reasonable price.

Not a bad hotel, Russian-speaking staff, which is convenient)
However, there is no access to the beach, you have to go across the road and some kind of construction site. In the hotel itself, they thought of doing repairs on New Year's holidays too. It overshadowed the whole vacation. The restaurant leaves much to be desired (with a love of Arabic and Oriental cuisine - it's like they don't know how to cook here at all ((( the exception is the Lebanese restaurant on the waterfront - it's really delicious and good service.

The hotel is not bad, the cuisine is delicious.
But not for young people-there are no discos, shows , etc.After dinner, one of the main activities is a walk in the surrounding area.
Alcohol is also stressful, the waiters carry cocktails for a long time and each time you need to call your room number.

Everything got worse as soon as the owner changed. Alcohol was added and the contingent changed. There was little food from children's food. Birds are shitting. The droppings got on my hand and I was sick. Tip: make umbrellas over tables or a canopy. The sea is nearby.

I liked the hotel.I will write about some of the points who are planning to come here.
1. There are no shops at all within a radius of at least 5 km.
2. Take toothbrushes and toothpaste with you, they are not given at the hotel.
3. There is a hair dryer, but only cold air. (it's in the table, where the mirror is attached there right in the shelf)
4. Iron and board if not, you can ask, they will bring it to the room.
5. There is nothing for children's entertainment except the pool outside in the courtyard, keep in mind. There is no baby food either.
6. The beach is across the street, 5 minutes. It is very clean, there are practically no people. Sun beds, umbrellas, toilet, shower are all available on the beach.
7. Excursions. Order from the hotel guide (I read the reviews myself, it's really cheaper and the person is very competent)
+971 52 899 6312 Sergey.(you can even write to him in advance in Whatsapp and plan your vacation excursions. The buses and the years were all cool when they ordered from him and the prices were much cheaper.
8. Food, there is also for vegetarians, vegans and Meat eaters, even for raw food eaters, I think too. The cuisine is more Arabic, Indian. There is something spicy, so read the information about the dishes or ask the waiters, there are many of them) meat, fish, vegetables, potatoes, rice, legumes, pastries, sweets, tea, juices, coffee, water, fruits.
9. There are two Russian girls at the reception (Elena, Ksenia).
10. An adapter for an outlet can be requested at the reception.
11. There are no buses, only taxis. There are no free transfers.
12. On-site restaurants are all paid. If you have everything included, then this is only the main restaurant (the dining room where you eat 3 times a day)
There is a bar near the pool and on the beach, and everything is paid. If everything is included, then only water, tea, coffee, and carbonated drinks are free.
There is alcohol, for a fee. And there is a hookah bar on the embankment, for a fee of course))
13. There is a safe in the room, free of charge.
14. At the reception, dollars are exchanged for dirhams 1 dollar = 3.4 dirhams (there was such an exchange rate)
15. Upon arrival, the tax is paid for each day immediately, the payment is taken at the reception.
16. Wi-Fi is available throughout the territory, there is also on the beach.
17. The staff is very polite. Cleaning every day. There is drinking water without gas in the room. There is also a small refrigerator (empty if anything :))
18. we went in late December- early January. Temperature +28+26/ it's even hot, in the evening it's +22+20 warm, in the evening it's a little cool. One day was windy, cool (at most a light hoodie and thin jeans), as well as T-shirts, dresses, sundresses,trousers/jeans light only,light clothes (cotton, linen), open shoes.
19. The water is very warm in the bay, we swam every day. There is probably water in the heated pool. We didn't swim there, but we touched some water.
20. Things were dried on the balcony. We had a balcony in our room.
Have a great holiday, everyone. The place is very quiet, as far away from " Civilization " as possible. Dubai is 80 km away. 60-80 minutes drive. Abu Dhabi is about 3.5 hours away.

I liked it here, it was a decent club, although some tribesmen were outraged. Well, this is always the case when you imagine that you are a sheikh, and you came from Khrushchev to Bibirevo for a week.

The hotel is of a very high level, the hotel services are focused on a pleasant stay and rest of tourists. Daily room cleaning and a fine selection of dishes in the restaurant. A great complex for relaxation. The beach is within walking distance. There are many vacationers with children and grandchildren. Therefore, I would like to wish the hotel services to hold more events for children. Excellent surrounding area. Nice promenade. There is not enough animation for children on the territory of the hotel !

A good Opel, delicious varied food every day, I will say right away - there are no alcoholic beverages! Polite staff! The beach is a 10-minute walk away, but immediately upon leaving the hotel it is fashionable to take an aircar that will take you to the beach and back. In general, the hotel is family-run, not for noisy festivities! Having a rest with the kids is just right!

A great hotel for your money. We had a rest in early December 2023. The arrival was early by flyers at 5.30 am, we got to the hotel in 1 hour and 10 minutes. They settled right away. We were given a nice room with a sea view, although we booked a regular one. The room is large, with a large bathroom, which has both a bathtub and a shower, and a separate bidet, a large balcony with a table and three chairs. The room is clean, although a little tired, but such things do not bother us.
The food is good, those who write that they are starving, I would like to ask, but at home there is daily restaurant food. There are always plenty of tables, there are no queues for anything (unlike most hotels in Turkey and Egypt).
The sea is beautiful, clean, warm, deep enough even at low tide. There are plenty of sunbeds and towels, no one steals anything.
We took half board, it was enough. In dutik, they took beer on arrival, it was enough for the whole vacation.
The hotel is on the island-there are no exchangers, no shops, no cafes. Russian charging is only turned on in the bathroom.
We will definitely come here again

The hotel is at the level of Egypt, but not at the level of the UAE. Tired room stock, the smell of dampness, service for 4, the food is as fast as in Egypt, there is a ball rolling around the hotel, a full pool of Pakistanis or whoever they are, you just can't approach the children's room. See photos. In general, we ran away on the second day)) I do not recommend visiting.

A cozy quiet hotel on an actively under construction island (you can't hear the sounds of construction, it doesn't interfere in any way). The hotel itself is not luxurious, but it justifies its cost. Among the disadvantages: people who smoke in the restaurant, they are even served ashtrays and the lack of bathrobes in the room by default, are given only on request.

Great hotel! I recommend it to everyone. Rooms, meals, cleaning, service - everything is at the highest level. There is no deposit. The promenade along the shore at the hotel is on one side of the bulk part of the island, the beach is on the other, you need to cross the road to use a buggy. A slight inconvenience on the beach due to the construction of a new hotel. But it doesn't bother in any way, everything is fenced. In addition, it is compensated by a pleasant price, given the high level of the hotel. I would love to go back there again. The sea is great!

Good afternoon!
We were in this hotel for a week from 17.03 to 24.03.23. Impressions are positive. The food is delicious, the weather is gorgeous, the sea is warm.
The hotel is on the first line, but there is a private beach across the street. It takes 3-5 minutes to walk, but you can also go by delivery. The beach is equipped with comfortable sun beds and umbrellas. During our vacation, there were few people around the pool and on the beach. The beach is a small shell, like coarse sand. There is little entertainment for children. We went with 2 children aged 8 and 6. In the evening we went to the children's playground next to the hotel or walked along the embankment to the fountains opposite the Tree Doble Hotel. And now about the number. We had a chic room on the second floor with a comfortable and soft bed, a large TV with Russian channels (2 or 3) and a balcony.sea view. The only thing is that a trip to the gold shop and to the fur shop, which was included in the price of the voucher, was superfluous. The prices are huge, although you can also buy at reasonable prices in any other store in Dubai.

The hotel is a solid 4-ka, there are pros and cons. From the pros: amazing staff, respond to all requests instantly, very clean, the rooms are large, spacious, the view from the window is beautiful. Of the minuses: the bottom of the sea is full of algae, is it really impossible to clean the beach? The food was heavy for us, although the choice is quite large, there is no children's menu.

It turned out to be a very small and simple hotel. One pool is small, the rooms are excellent, the restaurant is also cozy, but there is no territory in fact, there is a construction site next to the beach, the sea seems dead and gets bored very quickly, there is sadness at low tide. The children and I were bored and monotonous for all 12 days. I don't want to come back at all.

Mind-blowing view from the balcony, we had a 6th floor with a view of the pool and the bay. A large beach with convenient access to the sea and a huge number of sun beds and umbrellas.

From the pros: good service, if something is needed, then everything is quickly solved;
a good choice of food: nuggets, pasta, etc. for children, they did not go hungry, there are hummus, babaganush, lamb, fish.
no animation! for us, this is a plus, you can read in silence, there is no screaming music. A lot of kids, our immediately found friends and played together)
There is a supermarket with everything you need, prices are normal.
From the cons: everything is far from here! If you go somewhere, then only by taxi. Someone wrote about a free shuttle to Dubai Mall, it's not there. You need to go by bus with 2 transfers or by taxi ~ 150 dirhams in 1 way.

The equipment in the children's playroom is old except for the PS5. Also, the staff does not speak Russian and cannot figure out what happened between Russian-speaking children. I had to sort out the conflict between the children at the request of the staff. I also witnessed that a Russian-speaking child was injured by the pool, and the guards tried to communicate with him through a translator on a mobile phone.

A good hotel for your money. A solid four or a so-so five, but it fits. It's just that some people here are not aware, most likely by their agent or they drew something for themselves in their fantasies and expected this hotel to be like a luxury one for 500 thousand. But no, this one-to-one hotel matches its price. Don't expect fine cuisine and perfect service, it's for you to go to another hotel, look for more expensive ones. And here you just have a good rest for the money you paid. Normal quality food, decent service , and a lot of Russian speakers, don't get lost for sure).

Many thanks to the chefs of this hotel! For breakfast, lunch and dinner - 5 points. Varied, fresh and delicious food! Lots of salads, desserts. Hot is not a big choice, but always delicious meat and fish! This is the 3rd trip to the UAE, the best food in this hotel.
I'll start with Marjan Island: just an hour's drive from Dubai Airport. A beautiful bulk spit. On one side are boulders from the pier, on the other- beaches. From all rooms there is a sea view practically, while there is a huge number of free places for hotels nearby.
There is a nice embankment where you can walk. The island is quiet and peaceful. There are no parties. Beach: not sand, but shell rock. Kids don't like it, and I advise the elderly to wear shoes. They cut their legs with shells or stones. The entrance to the beach is flat, there is a low tide. If you like swimming, you won't like it. Quiet bay, plenty of sun beds. Bar with drinks (all inclusive:only juices, soda, tea and coffee, water), food and ice cream (only for a fee).
About the sea:February is cold, but you get used to it and you can swim. I liked the sea more than in Dubai:cleaner, there is something to see: fish, stars and even a turtle swam.
An electric car takes you to the beach. That's super! The child was delighted. Although it's a 5-minute walk to the beach.
Hotel: old, in need of renovation. The balcony door, bathroom plumbing and air conditioning did not work in our superior room! Why they take a deposit is not clear. About the deposit, be sure to change dollars and give strictly in dirhams. The course is not profitable, it will be returned in dirhams. They will take away the tourist tax. Or pay by card.
Reception: I didn't like anyone at all! Vanity, pretended to solve your questions! Arrived at this hotel for the first time, no information... We had to approach ourselves almost every day and ask and find out everything. Sadly. So welcome the guests!
For children: there is a shameful playground on the beach, although the place is good, under palm trees, in the shade. There is a good playground next to a football field and a tennis court, but the whole day in the sun. Full house in the evening. And there is a pirate club, for your money :)))) upon arrival, they give out 1 card per child, 25 dirhams on it, this is about 3-4 times to ride. Then you put the money and go ahead... There is a children's club, with an unclear schedule. They were not allowed, without a tutor, to come in to play. And with the tutor, the child refused. That's it! Neither 16 years, nor 10 years, nor 3 years was interesting, and in the evenings it was boring. The children had fun in groups, according to interests and languages, as they could themselves.
Pools: small, heated, shallow. The small one is comfortable with kids up to 3 years old. Since the hotel is built with the letter P, the pool is covered by the sun for a short time, from about 11 to 15.
The hotel has a small shop with snacks, beer, chocolate, ice cream and juices. And there are basic necessities. There is a shop with swimming accessories and bicycles can be rented.
Near the hotel there are electric scooters and a soft running road.
There is always a taxi.
In general, a nice and quiet hotel!
