Reviews
This was my first visit, and I arrived at the hotel at 11 AM, coming from Abu Dhabi. They made us wait until 3 PM to get our room, almost as if punishing us for arriving early. This was despite the fact that I had booked two rooms, one of which was for my 74-year-old mother. Utterly exhausted, and only after I had to raise my voice, did they finally assign me the first room.
We had stayed in same hotel in Makkah and it was nice, and we enjoyed here in Marjan Island RAK as well.
And I recommend it to visit it for all, location is nice, the facilities is good and cleanliness is good and the most important the service is excellent in everything .
I would like to thank all the staff for the warm welcome and their smile and thanks for the management for that.
Just I have few suggestions as below:
1. Please it would like to be better if the pool and beach will open earlier than 9am it is nice if open 7am.
2. Since it was July and the weather is too hot it would be lovely if there are family's inside activities as a inside fun city or inside gaming or even a theatre for cinema or and other show.
3. For the food it nice and a lot of choices but the menu of sweet is poor and for us the toast not nice, also of you can increase the selection of fruit not only 3 kind of fruit.
I hope you the best and success.
Thank you so much
