    The walls are a little thin, we could hear babies crying, neighbors laughing and luggage being towed. On our last night, we also had a cockroach appear in the bathroom, despite the hotel being great overall

    Great location, the beach front was nice, the interiors were great

    Lovely resort with beach access and good food -- close to Abu Dabi Louvre

    • Spacious Sea View Two Bedroom Suite
    • Stayed 2 nights

    We rented a villa with 1 room and pool, which was a little tight for 3 adults. Perfect for a honeymooning couple or couple with small children, but for 3 adults, we were climbing over each other to get ready in the morning and one person had to sleep on a cot in the main room (versus a pull out bed). However, it was beautiful.

    Beautiful property with a private beach, pool, and restaurants. The restaurant that's part of the resort package serves delicious Arab/Lebanese/Indian food. Rooms are beautiful and the beds are very comfortable. Everyone is very kind and helpful.

    Shower in our room did not have a slope to the floor so it didn't drain well. The standing water then made room smell musty..We should have mentioned it but it would have required a rebuild so not an easy fix!

    The low-rise building and plenty of space. Enjoyed the pool and sports facilities.

    We chose to eat outside at the Italian restaurant, which was a mistake as the artificial grass seemed to be the hiding place for mosquitos.

    We had a very quiet, spacious room with a very large bed. A lovely view of palm trees from the balcony. The room service was excellent, delicious food beautifully presented. There was a wonderful selection of food for breakfast.

    Only two sole points. - the temperature in the rooms is too fast in reality without the possibility of controlling it independently. My daughter had to ask for a heater to put in her bedroom as she has a little girl. - specific gluten free foods for celiacs are absolutely insufficient

    Room very nice , Breakfast, The restaurants are excellent, in particular the Italian restaurant SI with a truly excellent Chef Stefano quality dishes, I ate the best Dover Sole and an excellent Milanese risotto with Burrata, really compliments 10 cum laude Spacious and lovely room, breakfast with a wide choice and quality, the very large swimming pool with several hydro massage points, the Caribbean-type beach, with no difficulty in having sunbeds and umbrellas available. excellent towel and water service

    The breakfast selection and quality could be improved especially for the European style stuff and pastries etc.

    Excellent service and comfort throughout. Great room size and access/amenities for the large, kids friendly beach. Good choice of restaurants within the resort with a special mention to the Italian one SI and the head chef there - bravo! Close proximity to the Louvre and other nice areas and activities in downtown Abu Dhabi.

    Will try to find it next time.

    This is a true 5* Hotel. Everything is at its highest standard, from cleaning to room to its very detail - twice a day, to dining in all the restaurants. Especially the "Non reserving sunbed" system works flawlessly and other hotels should learn from it.
