None of the staff knows Russian , it is difficult to communicate even in English. The restaurant does not have a single Russian letter in the name of the dishes . The food is modest and monotonous . Otherwise , everything is fine .
We had a rest with a friend from December 5 to December 11, 2022. Let's go celebrate my birthday in a warm country.
About the hotel and the territory: upon arrival, the check-in was waited for up to 14 hours. We left our suitcases at the reception, went to eat and sunbathe ourselves while we were preparing our room. The Russian-speaking Baha hotel administrator is very responsive, helpful, resolves any issue, is ready to tell and show everything about the territory and not only. The territory is large, palm trees - greenery is present in abundance. Daily watering of the territory. Deluxe room. Very decent but mer. Three-hole sockets (ask the administrator for normal ones) Room cleaning every day. The first line. You go out and immediately the beach. Since this is a bay, then in the mornings and evenings. (alternating) ebb and flow. When the tide is high, the water is fire, when the tide is low, the algae is fine. But you can go to the pool in which they pour without crawling out of the water and there will be norms, and music and pour and there will be no algae. There are enough deck chairs for everyone. Towels are issued by cards. In the morning, you can put it on a chaise longue, so to speak, score a place you like and go to breakfast and in general you can do this for the whole day, no one will take your chaise longue.
Food: we rested for a week, the food is of the same type, but cooked in a variety of ways. If you approach your diet wisely, then you won't get tired of it in a week! Lots of greenery at all meals. For breakfast, sausages, porridge, fried eggs and scrambled eggs are lined up (queues for them are not large, they are quickly cooked in two hands).
I read a review that someone was not congratulated on their birthday from the hotel. I thought it would be waiting for me too. But no, they congratulated the staff and the hotel administrator himself handed over a cake with a candle! It was very touching when not only the staff congratulates, but also the people at the neighboring tables applaud and wish warm words. Somehow it was especially kind!
Hotel programs: every day at the reception, the schedule of events. In the morning, water aerobics, bocce, beach volleyball, zumba. In the evening, football on the big screen (We got to the T-shirt World Cup), dancing, show programs, fire shows, magic tricks, animation for children. At 23, all noisy events end. Continuation in the bar opposite the entrance to the reception.
Near the hotel: Rasel Khaimah shopping center, taxi there 20 dirhams, back 10. Walking in one direction slowly for 45-50 minutes, the path is well-maintained for walking along the road, you can safely walk with a stroller. Souvenirs were bought there. The supermarket has everything you need. And a couple of souvenir shops. And so there's H&M, sefora, two children's stores (you can buy Legos there), well, for small things, drink coffee, smell perfume. In principle, who does not need to shop, but purely souvenirs, then everything can be bought there. Than to drag from Dubai Mall, where there are a lot of people, and if the tour is by bus, then gallop through Europe. Well, such a thing. If you take it individually. Everything is at your own discretion.
Bottom line: I liked everything, I was happy with the rest from the word at all. A week was enough to recharge with sunbathing and buy up to the ears!
I RECOMMEND IT! With a child, I would come back again! Since there are a lot of vacationers with kids, I think they did not regret choosing this hotel!
Rested from 14.12 to 24.12.2022. The hotel is not bad, but there are nuances. Watering lawns is not carried out with clean water, but with "purified secondary water", so the smell is still the same. The food is monotonous, chicken, beef, fish (only pangasius). Vegetables potato dishes are still nothing, and the rest of the vegetables are almost raw. Fruits: watermelon, melon, oranges, grapefruit, apple fruit salad with melon. Desserts are delicious, especially with a tiramisu-type souffle. The beach and the sea are also for an amateur. See the low tide map, at low tide you can walk to the buoys. The temperature was 25-28 in the afternoon, the water was 26. For those who swim in our pools it is good, for others it is cool. We went for a walk to the island, get out of the hotel and to the right, the place is very beautiful, a chic embankment with a view of the Persian Gulf. If you turn left there is a shopping center about 40 minutes on foot or by taxi.
I liked everything: the room, the beach, the pool, all-inclusive meals. We got to Dubai for an excursion in 1 hour. The weather is comfortable in February.
The food is not delicious. A chicken was seen from meat once during the whole vacation. There was a terrible boiled mackerel . Beer was poured into disposable 200g cups
The hotel is very boring. Entertainment shows for children are not even interesting. The hotel itself is more like a boarding house for tourists. people. In general, three with a minus
Everything is great, and the staff, and the rooms, and the territory, the food, and the beach. Clean, cozy, fun (especially at the bar))). We were satisfied 🫶
Well, 4" stars of this hotel are significantly inferior even to a similar hotel in Turkey. If you want the sea, then it's not here!!!! It is only formal, part of the sea leaves with the ebb, it is impossible to swim - you will get tired of walking 200 meters to the buoys, it is quite dirty - a bunch of algae and mud.. After 14.00 at high tide it is also sooo difficult to swim .... From 13. 00 To 16. 00 it is impossible to be on the street, burn right away.... The food is sooo skulled, there is often a queue, the meat is only tough beef and a little chicken... Alcohol is only local, the quality is very lousy... Coffee -tea is even worse than alcohol... The territory is very sparse, there is nothing to see..
Cons - far from Dubai, taxi $ 70; food for the 5th day will bother anyone and no frills, if the room is standard, then either without a balcony or without a sea view, you need to pay extra; rooms for 4
Pros - staff, cleaning, booze, animation, hotel grounds, tides, the price of a tour to this hotel can be good at the level of Egypt, so it's better here.
Total: we had a great time, but would not have returned

The hotel is excellent, the food is varied and most importantly delicious. The beach is comfortable with good sun beds. Just a couple of cons:shallow sea and far from Dubai
The place is great. But there is a problem with the tides of the sea. It is necessary to catch a "wave" so as not to walk waist-deep in the water on the waters of the Arabian Sea))

A good hotel, level 4 Turkish, excellent food, no queues, drinks and alcohol are excellent without restrictions, the only minus is the ebb and flow because of which it is not very convenient to swim.
The hotel was chosen hoping for an average four, especially since they expected that a four-star hotel in the Emirates would be of a good level. It turned out that the hotel is old, the rooms are disgusting, and the last time we saw this in the Dominican Republic (I note that this country does not pretend to be a "luxury" impression) in a three-star hotel 10 years ago.
This hotel can still be compared with a three-star hotel in Russia in Bryansk or Orel, but the price will be lower there, and there are reasons - lack of funding. Here, it would seem that the Emirates cannot afford such a thing.
The staff is friendly, and I sympathize that they have to work in such an old hotel: it is much more difficult, since it is unpleasant to wash the floor with chips and walls with fungus.
There is no service, they will smile at you, but we are "locusts" for them, as if we had arrived, swept away the buffet, went to the beach, shat garbage, scattered to the rooms in the evening.
Animators are cool girls and boys, but when it rained for three days, everyone died, there was no activity, but you can make some rooms under the roof, at least exercise.
You can get ready to play at least a crocodile.
The territory of the hotel is very large, well maintained. This is a big plus, and the beach, and beautiful trees. It is clear that they are courting.
We woke up at night and saw that our floor was flooded because of the rain. They asked to clean it, they came and cleaned it, but by morning there was a puddle again. For two days we live in a room with a puddle of water on the floor of the room. The staff doesn't care about such things.
If it's cloudy outside and no higher than 19 degrees, then it's very cold in the room. It blows from under the door through a huge gap, I had to close the gap with a towel.
The first room, where we were settled, was generally far from the pool, as if on a settlement. Old, the view from the window is ugly, and it's good that we paid extra and moved "supposedly to a premium room", also a hut. But at least a view of the sea.
Food is the same every day. Green salads - approx. But there are still as many mayonnaise salads. Chicken, beef and tilapia-type fish. Every day, and on the fourth day it no longer climbs.
Desserts are very simple.
Juices in a bar on the street diluted with water. We checked, poured juice in the restaurant and went to the same poured in the bar - the bar just tastes terrible. Why deceive the guests?
Tea bags are the cheapest.
Draft coffee - although in 4-star hotels in Moscow cappuccino for breakfast is the norm. Here - you need to pay.
The gym is closed. Although we took the form, we wanted to study.
If it's raining, there's nothing to do here, it's cold in the room, it's pouring outside.
The hotel is on the outskirts, there is nothing around.
The only joy is to walk to the bulk island, there is a beautiful embankment, and it is clear that you are in a cozy place.
We went shopping in the old town on the recommendation of a guide.
According to the guide, this is shopping in the old town in two large shopping centers. In fact, they were brought to Dubai airport, to a hangar, a terrible building, the windows are dark, the door is closed. Then we were met and taken to a leather and fur products store. The sellers were very friendly, but when we said we wouldn't buy, we were very disappointed. To leave there is also a quest, it turns out, it is necessary to go to the second "large shopping center", probably in fact also a hangar, and if you don't want to, then the guide pretended that he was sooo dissatisfied with us, poverty))))
In general, I thought the old town was markets, bazaar, shops, but not that, what we saw.
The disappointment is complete in everything: from the room to the food.
A normal hotel, had a good rest with the children. The food was not very pleasant, there were few fruits, natural meat and fish. The sea is shallow, it is impossible to swim at low tide. But there are no waves (located in the bay).
We had a great rest, the animators light up even adults, danced with him perfectly, Sasha, Lilya and Chico are wonderful guys, we are delighted, we will definitely come back✨♥️

1st coastline, well-groomed territory. Good cuisine (quite different), service as everywhere. The rooms are comfortable (don't forget the adapters), freshly renovated, everything you need to eat. The beach is clean, the child is happy. Animation is not Turkey)
Good day everyone!
We are resting at the hotel today.
The hotel is located near Dubai, 40 minutes away.They meet with a separate transfer.The rooms are excellent, the food is good, everything is enough for everyone.There are sun beds on the beach and on the pool.The animation is strong.There are Russian speakers at the reception, but you can tell everything through an interpreter (program).If you are flying to the UAE for the first time, then read the recommendation from the tour operator, there is a tourist fee.
15 derhram per day per room.
I recommend the hotel.
a good hotel, but slightly tired rooms, the service leaves much to be desired ....not the first time they do everything, the hotel is 3++, there is a children's room, slides , children's discos. it is very suitable for holidays with children .
In general, the declared 4 * barely reach 1.5)))) cleaning is so-so, towels with shampoo need to be begged, the food is average, there is no entertainment from the word at all, the music in the evenings is the one from which Russia has been sick for years, a la the nineties or worn-out with MuzTV (((In this place, the main thing is to find yourself entertainment away from this place)))) we alternated days, it saved us, a day at the hotel, a day on trips....
From myself I added another 1.5 for the friendly staff and the pool in the cabana
Good day everyone!
We rested at this hotel from November 28 to December 5, 2 adults + 2 children.
Check-in was at 4 am, I took note of the early reviews that at the reception they are bred to rooms for an additional fee, we had exactly the same. At the reception, the man immediately offered a "better room" for $ 820, after the refusal he dropped to $ 200. Further, after the refusal, he said that there are no standard rooms available for our reservation and said that we still need to pay for a night in a better room. As a result, after the refusal, they were settled in a room according to the deluxe, which was very old. One of the advantages was the view of the main pool. At the time of handing over the room just before leaving, the same man was at the reception again and began to divorce us again to pay for the room in which we lived, allegedly there was no standard -pay for deluxe, his colleague is Russian-speaking and the issue was resolved.
The beach is gorgeous, clean. There were tides, but this is not critical.
The pool and water slides are excellent, with temperature control. The children bathed until it got dark.
Food: monotonous, but delicious. No French fries.
The animation is excellent, especially for children, thanks a lot to Lila and Alexandra.
Will we come back again?! Most likely not because of the number of rooms. One double bed and one cot in the room is very uncomfortable.
I am currently staying at this hotel with my daughter of 13 years, there are only 3 days of torment left, we were in it in 2018, 2019, the hotel has changed for the worse beyond recognition. Of the advantages, warm pools, slides, a sufficient number of sun beds, air conditioning works well. We didn't go to the children's animation, I can't say anything, an adult in the evening for 15, 20 minutes and in the afternoon. The food is disgusting, there is nothing to eat from the word AT all, everything is spicy, 1 type of fish was given all days in two cooking options, sauces, such as ketchup, mustard, mayonnaise, no, aaa forgot the delicatessen sauce ketchup was given only in the morning in the basin, there was also a "chic" children's table, there were inedible mashed potatoes and pasta in the tomato, you can't bite beef, chicken is dry as chips. Delicious only white rice, I ate it for 5 years ahead.There are a lot of salad leaves, boiled carrots and salads from apples, pasta, rice, fresh inedible tomatoes, but they were given only for dinner. The cakes were also delicious.The coffee machine is also original, like our samovar and it has 1 type of coffee called SLOP. In the main restaurant there are plastic glasses, which are constantly in short supply. There are no elementary French fries and they don't give you a coke in the morning either, only for lunch and dinner, probably dear. The towels in the room are gray, resembling a floor rag, but they are also in short supply for two, one. We could have given another one for 2 or 3 rooms, alternately we would have dried ourselves In the shower there is no hot water, it is slightly warm, I wanted to take a shampoo and go to the pool to wash, the water is warmer there.The room is cleaned late and poorly. To fix the sink, the reaction is ZERO.The alcohol is disgusting, the bartenders are unfriendly, exhausted and demanding to return the plastic glass as soon as possible, so there are not enough of them. I did not expect such an outrage and a relationship for a lot of money. I strongly do not recommend that you do not come to this hotel if you do not want to spoil your vacation.
We are resting at the hotel 1.08.22
I read reviews before leaving, they wrote below that the beach is magnificent), but keep in mind that there are strong tides here and the water leaves 25 meters from the shore in the morning from the charms you will see Only sand similar to Fig, at least knee-deep and overgrown. At 9:30 the tide starts and only by 11:30 the tide will finally fill the bay. The rooms are normal, we checked into the Sabana Only at 14:30 in the afternoon, although we arrived at 7:00, below in the chilala reviews that someone was hired immediately in the morning and in the standard. We were offered for an additional $ 270 (for 9 nights) to change the room to closer to the sea, we refused and did not regret a drop in the Cabana there is no music and there is a swimming pool nearby. The territory of the hotel is not so big, so for me it made no sense to pay extra.
Near the reception, excursions to Dubai are offered for $ 105 / person by bus and $ 220 individual (Only transfer is included in the price). You can get it from the locals cheaper. Everything is standard for food, you won't be hungry, but without frills, it's always the same. Fruits : watermelon, melon, orange, grapefruit. Good juices, beer is given in cans (norms). Who goes in the summer, be prepared for the heat) we only started getting used to it on the 3rd day, but during the day we hid in the room, you will burn even in the shade. Otherwise, the hotel is for your money (you have to understand that it is cheap). The territory is small but well-groomed, palm trees☺
Great hotel. Your own beach. Two swimming pools, one of which has a bar, water slides. Great food, barbecue in the evening. Children are delighted with the rest
After reading the reviews, I drove, anticipating the horror. But everything turned out not so bad, for a solid four
The sea leaves (seen in the photo) and comes, the sand is fine, if not for algae and, accordingly, their remnants.
Food is not Turkey, you will not stay hungry, but the figure will be with you)
There are two pools, one central with a bar, the second at the boar's rooms, there is practically no one there.
The hotel is a dog friendly, a lot of locals come to vyhi with dogs!
There is a children's club - the children liked it, they were almost always alone)
There are no queues in the dining room) breakfast and dinner last 4 hours.
In principle, it is worthy)
Perhaps I will add something, there are 2 weeks of rest ahead)))
And yes, in October -the sea is a warm bathroom)))
In the UAE for the first time, a ticket was bought back in June in Sanfan, standard room. We flew from Vnukovo flydubai. I really liked the airline, a convenient flight: there 0:40 (arrived at 7:30), back at 19:10 (arrived at 23:50). Hot meals + hot and cold drinks were served on board.
At the airport, they quickly passed through passport control and immediately received their luggage. At the exit from the arrival area, representatives of the tour operator met. There were 33 people going to our hotel 😁, the bus was big, we stopped at more hotels, eventually arrived at the hotel at about 11 o'clock. They put on bracelets, gave a number at 12 o'clock.
The main difference of the UAE is the absence of corruption, and everywhere, it will not work to improve the room by giving it a paw, only according to the price list. At first we were given room 664 standard on the 2nd floor, the room is large, but for 4 people there is a King size bed and a single, our children are adults, so the next day we were asked to move.
The hotel is sold out, there are no rooms and we were offered a cabanna, this bungalow is slightly away from the main buildings, initially they are cheaper. To be honest, they are better than the standard, we lived in room 437, it is larger than the standard and the bath is much larger. But there is a very unpleasant smell and ants. As a result, the last 2 nights we lived in a premium 255 room, paying $ 110 extra. This room is very nice: 2 rooms, terrace, view.
The food is weak, there are no fresh pastries for breakfast, I have a fetish, croissants and rolls from yesterday, 2 types of yogurt, hard-boiled egg, cereals, salads, sausage (so-so), sausages (tasteless), cheese. There is always a queue for an omelet, croutons and pancakes were given every other day, but they are immediately disassembled.
Good juices, packaged, instant coffee.
Lunch and dinner are always of the same type: a couple of soups, chicken, beef, fish (very tasty, although I'm a meat eater, I don't really like fish), potatoes, rice and pasta. Vegetables, salads, fruits, sweets. Interesting chips with crab 👍.
The alcohol is good, several cocktails, beer in cans, tequila, gin, rum, whiskey. And my love is soda in jars☺️.
Very good water slides, the beach is large, there were enough sunbeds. A great pool with a bar, most people relax with it.
We went on a sightseeing tour to Dubai, took from Renat. I really liked it. For a day as an excursion, we lived in Rixos (I left a review on their page about this), I'll just say that VM beach is worth its money, and Rixos is definitely not, disappointment.
We went shopping a couple of times to the nearest shopping center, bought a lot of interesting things from clothes to souvenirs and, by the way, if you look at this shopping center, at the end of it on the left side there is an inconspicuous brother-in-law without a sign, this is an alcohol market, prices are like in duty free. Rum Old mung in our pyaterochka costs 1400, there are 13 dirhams (250 rubles 😂)
I was looking for Adjial Aurum perfume on the Dubai Mall, the girls will understand, they cost 13,000 here, 3500 there. If anything, they are. In duty free at the same price.
Our cards don't work. Rubles cannot be exchanged for dirhams, only cash dollars.
In general, it's not so bad, but it's better to choose a Standard room instead of a Deluxe one, there is a bed with children there, and clamshells are brought to the Deluxe. Food for 3 - the diet is monotonous. The beach - you can swim only during high tides, in other cases it is impossible, it is dirty.
Service for 2
Food for 4
Staff for 4
Rest for 3
Rooms for 3
Far from the city, there is nothing nearby, there is nothing to do in the evenings.The beach is not cleaned in the morning.
We won't go there anymore.
The declared money is not worth it. The furniture is old. The food is monotonous. The beach is tiny. The pool is not as big as we would like when vacationers are full in August. There is nowhere to go beyond the territory, there is nothing to do.
Bottom line: it's better to go somewhere else
