Great hotel

Upon arrival met by lovely lady Glen, who tried her upmost best to have our room ready quickly as our 10year daughter was tired after a 7hr flight. Glen upgraded us from a classic to a premium room so that we wouldn't have to wait 5 hours to check in. Great hotel, brilliant staff, great location, would definitely recommend and visit again. Staff were very welcoming. Fantastic

Lovely hotel with it's own privals beach and choice of pools. Lovely friendly and welcoming staff. Checkin was a bit slow but we were upgraded for free as compensation. Would visit again and recommend to friends and family.

Great Winter Sun

We had a fantastic 10 days in Abu Dhabi in late February. The hotel lived up to the reviews & is a great place to stop the buffet breakfast is very good. Emirates Palace is close by & recommend you book for high Tea which has the wow factor. We went cycling around the Yas Marina F1 Circuit on a Tuesday at 6pm for free amazing for any F1 fan it's a must!!! Wound definitely book again.

Relaxing week

I and my partner went to Abu Dhabi for a week of relax and sunshine, away from gloomy London. We had fantastic time in Abu Dhabi - it's not a very busy, eventful place but it still has enough attractions so we never got bored. The hotel staff was very friendly and helped us with everything we needed, including organizing a trip to the desert and sending post cards. The hotel is a lovely place, with great swimming pool and beach, and we really enjoyed the breakfast, the beach bar (they have amazing wraps!) and evenings by the sea in the Kamoon restaurant with shisha. The only downside was that the food was a little overpriced for what it was. While in Abu Dhabi, we visited the Falcon Hospital, we went kayaking in the mangroves, went for an afternoon to the desert and for a day to Dubai. The rest of our stay, we just relaxed by the pool and it was simply amazing.

Ich war mit meiner Frau da im Feb.2020 Das Hotel liegt super zentral und hat eine wirklich tolle Pool Landschaft und auch einen sehr schönen Strand, es ist eher ein Familien Hotel für Kinder zumindest waren mal sehr viele da. Top kann man sagen ist die Freundlichkeit aller Angestellter, die Zimmer wurden immer sauber gereinigt und auch sonst kann man hier nichts bemängeln. beim Essen haben Sie noch ziemlich viel Luft nach oben, das Frühstück ist noch halbwegs gut und reichhaltig, jedoch das Abendessen ist im Nachbar Hotel Grand Hyatt um Klassen besser und für den Preis von 180 AED noch super Günstig. Es gibt auch leider in diesem Hotel keinen Alkohol :). Am Strand ist ebenso ein Tip Top Service wie auch die Rettungsschwimmer immer pressend sind. Die Massagen sind auch sehr gut. So viel dazu , nun gibt es leider etwas ziemlich nerviges. Wenn man Erholung sucht am Strand kann man diese absolut vergessen ! So schön der Strand ist und das Wasser so nervig sind die Jetskis ! Diese fahren mit einer Höllen Geschwindigkeit rauf und runter und machen sich einen Spass daraus es laufend knallen zu lassen. Es sind nämlich keine normalen jetskis sondern Renn Jetskis und diese machen einen Höllen Lärm. Es ist so schlimm das Knallen der Motoren das man denkt man ist im Krieg, und das geht teilweise den ganzen Tag. Und wenn es das nicht ist, kommt ein Schnellboot angeschossen mit Party Musik. Wer also keine Ruhe sucht ist da gut aufgehoben, ansonste ist der Strand dann ziemlich nervig.
