Convenient, but very noisy area. Outside and in - I had two different rooms and in each one, my neighbors had a late night and I got to hear all of it. Staff is super-friendly and very helpful. Restaurant buffet is very decent and the place is quite nice. Previous occupants hair all over the shower in the first room, that wasn’t removed after the first cleaning, which I found a bit shocking.

6/10

The staff was excellent and really kind. The big minus was regarding usage of private beach area. I had understood that private beach visits would be included to the price of the room but this was not the case and had to be paid daily extra. The shuttle to Dubai mall was not reliable so could not thrust to the schedule.
