Brand New Hotel
Everything was perfect. The hotel had just opened, and everything was brand new. The staff was excellent, especially the reception team and the woman who served the welcome drink. The facilities on the beach were entertaining, and the pool was great. They also have a dance instructor who leads workouts with guests while they are in the pool.

While the hotel is generally not bad, but i had 2 big issues: 1. They didn't acknowldge the VIP status from Expedia, hence none of the benefits were received. 2. The dining options are generally limited, and the quality of food can be better.

This hotel is in palm jumeirah, a bit far from the airport but close to downtown Dubai and it has a good breakfast selection as well as very good staff. I got the hotel for a good price during January and it exceeded my expectations, also the sea view was amazing.
