Reviews
There are free activities such as camel ride, but the camel ride is time limited so that you need to queue for it under a very nice sunshine.
The dinner buffet is decent for meat lovers.
The hotel’s interior was stylish, clean, and very comfortable, creating a relaxing atmosphere from the start. Christina at the front desk welcomed me with a warm smile and kindly showed me around, which made me feel truly cared for. In the lobby lounge, Sujan spoke fluent Japanese thanks to his experience at a Japanese restaurant, and our wonderful conversation made my stay even more memorable. Overall, it was a delightful experience, and I would highly recommend this hotel.
The paid activities are excellent. We did the private falconry as well as the desert drive. Learnt about falconry and the history, as well as the chance to interact with a falcon and a hawk. The highlight for us though was definitely the desert drive. Super fun (and we had to tone it down since the wife was pregnant, so I can only imagine how thrilling it can be if we didn't). The guide, Umar, was very kind and helped to take memorable photos of us too. Our son had a wonderful time on the desert drive.
The spa is excellent too, did both the massage and the hammam and it's so relaxing.
Finally, the staff at the hotel were all very friendly and helpful.
Great stay and definitely the highlight of our Dubai trip!
