About the location
Ras Al Khaimah stretches languidly along Dubai’s Persian Gulf, known for its flour-white sand and bath-temperature waters. Decorated with a handful of luxury hotels, it’s a small but perfectly formed resort an easy 45-minute drive from Dubai International Airport. It’s big on swanky facilities, with an exclusive marina and yacht club perched off the shore and a swathe of private beaches. The watersports here are fantastic and sailing trips are a favourite. If you’d rather stay on dry land, the resort has a couple of top-notch golf courses including the spotless 18-hole number at Al Hamra Golf Club. If you fancy getting a feel for the traditional UAE, your hotel can arrange 4x4 desert safari, tours of the nearby city of Oman and even trips to see the much-loved camel races.

Amazing arrival experience, friendly staff and great food throughout the hotel outlets. Though the weather was quite hot and humid, the pool was cool and relaxing, water temperature was great to wipe away the feeling of heat. Mr. Ahmed, Assistant FOM was very genuine in offering assistance and ensuring our stay was very comfortable offering a true reflection of customer care. Personal Butlers / assistance team ere very attentive and provided great assistance to several requests we had, kudos to Mr. Nedal, Ms. Lizy, Ms. Nikita, Ms. Fleur,Ms. Kamillia for that. My 6 years old daughter calls it her favourite hotel and she very much enjoyed the towel and balloon art provided in the room upon arrival, Great Housekeeping Team! I had a great spa treatment and kudos to Spa Therapist Miss. Bijeta for that. Definitely a must experience and we will sure be back soon!

How can I start , I have stayed in many hotels around the world but this was a pleasant experience , I have stayed in many jumerah group hotels as well and this is on par with the them, all the staff at the hotel were pleasant I did not find a single person not helpful , I would recommend a different pool for the kids or have more options in the kids pool as that was the only thing that let the hotel down , the jumerah group have sinbads clubs were they have wet slides and rides within the pool , a special mention to Marina , Mukesh , ismaile who were brilliant with everything. The rooms were huge probably the biggest rooms I have stayed in a hotel. I would definitely come back and stay as not busy like Dubai & very peaceful
