We went for a weekend at the Barracuda resort using the cobone deal. I thought if cobone is selling this deal, the resort should be good. But surprisingly, it was not up to the mark. We went there in Feb end and the swimming pool was toooooo cold. It is not temperature controlled pool. And also the jaccuzi was there... More

We stayed in this resort in Feb 2012, we had taken our swim suits along but couldn't enter the swimming pool cos the water was still too cold in mid afternoon. though the rent is high for a small city like Umm al Qwuain, we got a good half price deal through cobone. We booked a Deluxe suite, and were... More

We stayed at the hotel in October, 2011, in one of the single bedroom cottages. The bedroom was big, by UAE standards, so was the sitting area, which had a dining table and kitchen counter as well. We had rented the cottage for a barbeque with friends. The cottage had a shaded tiled area just outside the sitting area, and... More

The setting could be nice but if you want food you have to sit in an icy cold air conditioned building with... More

This place looks like at one time it was a good little resort but now it is falling apart. For example - it is called a "beach resort" and yet it has no beach! The beach that is shown in the website's photos was never a natural beach and without maintenance it has long since washed away. What is left... More

the website of this hotel is a far cry from reality.. in place of the lovely azure beaches in the website photos, we were absolutely shocked to find a browny green smelly swamp that is cordoned off about a meter's width for the whole length of the beach!! no one is allowed near it as its unsafe.. the rooms are...
