We have stayed here many times and it is absolutely our favourite of all in Dubai. Make sure you book the villas overlooking the beach, the views are amazing.
The service in this hotel is seriously good, and Shetty and his team of butlers will take care of your every need. This is an oasis in Dubai which is a very busy place, you can truly relax and enjoy some peace here secluded and protected.
The private pool is very quiet within the villa area or if you choose to use the pool by the beach with your own cabana which has your name above that is a wonderful touch. The children's pools are excellent and always well covered by life guards. The staff are graceful and are careful not to intrude on your quiet time. We enjoyed our balconies with the plunge pool when we were feeling too lazy to leave. The perfect place to get over jet lag and a very good option for a holiday in its own right. Especially for those with babies and toddlers as almost is done for you and you can relax.
Dubai has alot to offer families, we loved the whole experience, the new Emirates terminal, the hotel transfer on time, slick and very very comfortable. The hotel welcome and arrival. Dubai really has reached a new standard, and although the villas could do with a bit of updating now, as they have been exactly the same since we started using them five years ago we will always go back - you simply can not rival it in Dubai.
