We booked for 2 nights in a club room and enjoyed our stay so much we decided to stay for another. The hotel has a great location on the beach, although there is nothing nearby to visit. If you are looking for a place to relax, then this is your place. The club room offered great value with al a carte breakfast in the Taste restaurant, afternoon tea and sandwiches and happy hour from 7-9pm each evening. The only thing missing which is normally found included in club room rates was Internet access although this could be accessed free of charge on the 15th floor. The hotel was very quiet which was great and service was particularly good throughout the hotel. Barbara in Astros bar was great. It was disappointing that after a lovely stroll on the beach, we found our feet to be covered in oil that we couldn't get off. The lifeguards helped and gave us baby oil to remove the oil, but I don't expect to get oil on my feet at a 5 star resort - and there are no signs warning you of the presence of oil. Without being asked, the hotel sent us across some free drinks to apologise which was appreciated. Overall, a great relaxing stay.

It was our first anniversary and was truly a memorable one staff was really helpful in reservations hussein was really prompt Italian restaurant was okay also would like to thanks executive chef Chacko

Thanks all of you for making our holiday so wonderful

This is the first review I am ever writing, but the hotel left such a great impression on me that I just had to share my experiences with other travelers.

From the moment we arrived, we loved it.
The property is beautiful, very comfortable and cozy, and it shows that the staff is very well-trained how to keep up this standard.
Every single member of staff that we encountered was exceptionally friendly, in a natural way. Whereas in some hotels you feel like people are only greeting you because they have to, the staff in the Meridien was friendly because they wanted to. They are obviously happy to work there, and the management seems to take good care of them.
They really go the extra mile to serve the guests.
You can find nice rooms basically everywhere, but what really makes the difference is the service, and the Meridien does an excellent job in both.

We stayed in the 16th floor and had the most amazing view on the beach and the sea. We could even hear the waves, it was fantastic.

The hotel is quite far from Fujairah itself, so if you are coming for a weekend break (like we did), it is the perfect place. Everything you need is in the hotel, starting from restautanrs (really good food by the way, and plenty of choice), bars, shops, spa, everything.

The only criticism that I have, speaking from a hotelier's point of view, is that the check-in and check-out took a little too long.
But this is not really a big point, when you go there you are on vacation anyway and not under time pressure.

Thank you to the team of Le Meridien for making our stay so wonderful! We will for sure come back.

We were there a few years ago. In those days, it was a fabulous hotel and location, with a fantastic beach, very clean, and extremely clean waters, pretty warm up to very warm. In a few words: a dream. In the last two years, I read many reviews, complaining with the TAR PROBLEM on the beach and in the WATER. Even the last reviews of Decemeber/November 2011 are reporting on this problem. The reason is simple: the Emirate of Fujairah does allow tankers to be CLEANED in its territorial waters. Don't they have a Tourism Ministry to intervene and abolish and forbid such a "terrific and poisonous procedure"?? In the last two years I had planned several times to go to this Meridien Al Aqah again (Hotel+Food+Service are impeccable). I was afraid of the TAR; and I went to Ras al Kaimah instead. Next November/ December I should like to go again to Al Aqah; before booking I shall read spasmodically and regularly the TRIPADVISOR's Reviews to discover whether the TAR problem has been solved. Otherwise, I am very sorry, no Fujairah, no Al Aqah and no Meridien.
