In general, it's super for our money, we are happy with the territory, the food and the room. One of the disadvantages is that there is no place to take pictures by the sea, on the one hand an island on the other a construction site
To be honest, I expected a better room. The staff is nice, kind and sociable, but it was difficult to speak English at the reception because of their accent, but we got used to it. The food is delicious. The sea is great, there are fish, small crabs and starfish. There is even a place to walk outside the hotel (if there is an embankment there, if you go to the right, and if to the left, there will be a shopping center, well, you can ask there if you want)
I really liked it, especially the good girls from fitness, just smart, the bar is just great, the room is also clean, they clean it every day, the only minus is that the employees at the reception do not know Russian, it's time to learn if most tourists are from Russia
+ The hotel is low-rise
+ The territory is rather big
+ Animation, music
+ Works on an all-inclusive system
- there is nowhere to leave the hotel, near the highway
- the hotel is not new, and it has not been a good upgrade for a long time
The impressions are positive
Everything is fine, the service is good, the food is good, the choice is good and you will not stay hungry. The sea is super clean and nearby. I recommend.
Super Hotel👍🏻 Watched the 2022 World Cup there (though only the group stage). The TV near the beach is huge, the beach is not big, but good, you can swim. If you are going to Ras al Khaimah, then only this hotel!
Minuses:
1. the food is monotonous and not particularly tasty (exceptions are sweet, although it is monotonous, but delicious! And drinks)
2. Cleaning is very mediocre, towels were changed for 9 days 1 time
3. The territory is large, but stupid, there is nowhere to walk. There is also a void and a highway outside the hotel.
4. The children's pool is tiny and for some reason it is impossible to wear clothes (I mean beach, so that the child's shoulders do not burn, because the pool is without shade under the scorching sun most of the day
5. Algae at the bottom of the bay
Positive:
Since we chose a hotel for a child, I evaluate it from this point of view:
1. Clean bay - the water is just clear, shallow everywhere, so it's ideal for children to swim
2. Clean beach, lots of sun beds
3. Entertainment for children
The hotel is not that rubbish, but so-so. The food is very poor. Meat is sometimes of very poor quality - stringy beef. More often chicken yu. There was never any turkey or mutton. Fish is only tilapia. Minimum fruit and only sliced. Watermelons, melon similar to pumpkin, oranges, grapefruits, fruit salad (apples, watermelons). Not even bananas. From leafy greens - only various types of salads, no parsley, no curd, no other greens.
Instead of a restaurant, there is some kind of canteen with a minimum of staff, there are also not enough tables.
Coffee machines only in the canteen and free coffee only for breakfast. The rest of the time is paid for some reason.
There is no lobby bar at the reception
For some reason, swimming in a cotton T-shirt was forbidden in the pool, allegedly some chemical reaction would happen and something terrible would happen to me. The lifeguard whistled to me for 30 minutes, called the security, the Russian-speaking manager, and they all tried to convince me that bathing in a white cotton T-shirt in the pool I would cause fatal harm to my body. Bullshit! As a result, we scored on them and swam only in hot! the sea, forgetting about the cooled pool.
There are very few staff and they are poorly trained. Only 1 manager at the Reception speaks Russian, few people understand English either. The level of service is very low. But, at the same time, everyone is afraid of complaints, so do not hesitate to lean on them and demand the right level of service.
There is animation, but it is weak. A feeble selection of muses/tracks. In the evening, a weak show, but then a disco of different levels of fun (I don't know what it depends on).
Alcohol. 2 types of warm Austrian wine from tetrapacks, 2 types of Austrian canned beer, tequila, vodka, gin, rum. Cocktails are not provided (unless something is paid) or ask to visit in an arbitrary prlpor3to what is available.
Apple, pineapple, orange juice in boxes.
The beach is sandy. By evening, the tide is out. There is a swing in the sea (very nice). But there are a lot of algae on the bottom (just thickets), and just bushes floating on the surface. There are no fish or crabs (unless they are dead sometimes).
There are no shops, pharmacies, or points of sale of anything near the hotel. If anything, you'll have to go for everything by taxi.
In DF, there is also almost nothing in the a/e port, and what is more expensive than in Russia.
In general, I did not like the Emirates. It's never Turkey at all. The service is rubbish, boring, hot (the sea is boiling, only hot water from the tap), tasteless food, shoddy level of service. We went there this year only because of the high cost in Turkey.
I am very disappointed. At the same time, we had a good hotel by local standards with animation!!!! There wasn't even any ice cream 👎👎👎
Sadly. ☹️
The hotel is normal, but I will not recommend it.
For me personally, it's a minus for the sea (but it will be super for children), because of the ebb and flow.
No need to expect Turkish service from this hotel, it's good in its own way.
The hotel is suitable for those who go only for the beach, pool and seal holidays.
The hotel is super. Exceeded my expectations. There is a children's animation. Animators Sergey and Kristina are fire. 50% of the positive emotions from the hotel are their merit.
We were in it in the first decade of December 2022 . It surpasses similar ones in Turkey in terms of level. We are omnivorous tourists, so I won't tell you anything about nutrition. Impotent beer from Europe of three brands. The beach is on the territory of the hotel. Umbrellas-sun beds, towels-in abundance. The advantage of the hotel is that it is located in an emirate remote from Dubai and therefore cheaper. For shopping-utter boredom. There is absolutely nothing to buy in the surrounding shopping malls in terms of clothes. You need to go to the Dubai Mall for the whole day or take a hotel in Dubai. The approach to the sea is ideal, gentle and sandy. The optimal month is October, November, December.
We meet the second spring in this hotel. And the next one, if possible, is also here. Everything meets its requirements, even cleaning. I would especially like to mention the work of animators. They have built their work so that they are constantly among the guests. Benevolence, smile, communication skills, excellent physical. and the choreographic training of the animators make the guests' stay on the beach unforgettable! I would especially like to mention Irina's work.Young, beautiful, bright!!!He will find a common language with any guest. One bad thing, she's not here every day. Conclusion: if you need a rest without problems and problems - then here, to "tear" to Irina!!!
A great hotel for a beach holiday! Good food, Alcohol, rum, tequila, whiskey, gin, wine, beer in cans! Animation, for children and adults! One minus it's a long way to Dubai for an hour and twenty by bus!
I have been to the UAE 15 times and each time I ignored this hotel considering it old and not fashionable, I visited mainly Hilton hotels in Ras el Khaimah.This time we decided to take the VM hotel for all inclusive, we were very worried that we wouldn't like it, from the first minutes at the reception we met a cheerful married couple who told us that the hotel is like a friendly company and you won't regret it, immediately we changed the room from the standard (we didn't like it) paying $ 150 for 11 we spent a few nights on a deluxe near the sea, and immersed ourselves in the fun life of the hotel, we liked everything every evening, fun parties, high-quality alcohol,canned beer, African white and red wine, rum is not bad,the food is not varied, but everything is cooked delicious,the only sea bottom was with algae, the whole day the animators are engaged in the evening shows are not bad, in general, I liked everything and even compared to more expensive hotels.
A good hotel has everything, the staff is pleasant
You can have a good rest, the staff speaks Russian well (it's a little more difficult at the reception)
The ocean is just around the corner
What it takes to escape from everyone and everything. Paradise, the warmest bay, palm trees, fruits and friendly staff. The bungalow is a great place for privacy!
There is enough staff at the hotel. The waiters in the restaurant practically fly. Clean, delicious, of course they don't serve lobsters, but don't forget that this is a four. Internet is available throughout the territory. We rested a little more than a week, we liked it. Home tomorrow.
We rested at the hotel from 12.09-21.09. We arrived late, took a room by the sea for an additional fee. The territory of the hotel is small, so you can move in anywhere. I will immediately note that the large pool and the stage will be quite noisy. We lived near a small pool, it's quiet there. When checking in, pay attention to the plumbing, the hotel is old and many things work so-so. The room has a hairdryer, kettle, refrigerator, TV. Cleaned every day. We need adapters for our sockets, you can ask at the reception. Wi-Fi is good throughout the hotel. Swimming pools: 1. Small (deep) quiet and peaceful, there are not very many people. 2. Large (depth starts from a meter) noisy, lots of people. The whole party is usually here.
Sea: constant ebb and flow, shallow enough, the beach itself is very large. The bottom is not the most pleasant, algae and sand similar to silt. But in general, it is well suited for families with children. There are no strong waves, only if there is a strong wind.
Nutrition: average nutrition, there is no special variety, everything is the same. The child could only be fed at breakfast (she is fastidious in food). Some specific soups, oranges, grapefruits, melon and watermelon were given from fruits. Sweets are always in the form of cakes, cut into pieces, there is no baking at all, well, only bread. In the morning, you can pick out a cupcake or puff. Children's menu: it's either pasta or liquid mashed potatoes. A lot of Hindus and Arabs came over at the weekend and seemed to be fed better. In general, you will not stay hungry, but the monotony quickly becomes boring.
Since a lot of people stopped by on Friday, there were interesting shows on Friday and Saturday at the animation: a fire show and a belly dance. On other days, there is usually a children's mini-disco for 20 minutes. Then there is an adult program (karaoke, dance training, etc.), mostly in the evenings everyone hangs out near the stage, because there is nothing else to do, there is nothing outside the hotel.
There is a children's club on the territory of the hotel, my daughter went there almost every day. There they painted, made crafts and painted aquagrim.
In general, the hotel is not bad, they are trying to green up, everything is cleaned. The staff is very polite. Animators also respect, they try to entertain people.
The beach is not cleaned., tina, it is weak in nutrition, but you will not stay hungry, and this word ultra is included in general, about which it is neither clear nor anyone ultra is not there.And the bars open from 11 o'clock .
We had a vacation in February with my husband. We bought a ticket at the travel agency "Zagranka". We flew through Sharjah (by Arab Airlines). The arrival was in the morning, we arrived at the hotel around 9 am. We settled in within 10 - 15 minutes. They explained that our room is standard without a view of the sea, garden, etc., offered to improve the room category, we refused. We paid the tourist fee (the money was exchanged in advance at the airport. Course 3,6).
They took the electric car to the room, carried the suitcases. The staff at the hotel is polite, friendly.
The walls in the building and the room itself are very tired, but since we came to the room, we can say, only to sleep, we considered this a minor flaw. The balcony is large, there is a table and two chairs on the balcony, there is no clothes dryer, the view into the courtyard is not beautiful. It could have been improved better.
In this regard, we liked the cabana rooms much more (with a view of the garden or pool). We don't know why they are in all the comments hayat, we personally went to these rooms and everything is decent enough there, no worse than the standards. In general, by the way, inside all categories of rooms are practically no different. The difference from deluxe suites is the view of the sea, the garden and the supposedly special proximity to the beach and pool. In fact, from the farthest rooms (cabana), it takes no more than 3-5 minutes to walk to the beach (depending on who walks at what speed). And in general, the rooms of the boar have their own pool and bar!!!
In the room all the equipment worked properly. TV with 3 Russian channels.
There is a kettle, refrigerator, iron on request. I took it, they brought it along with the board 5 minutes after my request to the reception.
The plumbing is serviceable, the shower worked very well. But everything is cleaned badly (rust, smudges, etc.).
The ceiling was constantly falling in the toilet. The problem was not only in our room. Moreover, an egregious incident occurred during our stay. In the deluxe room, such a metal tile from the ceiling in the toilet fell on a woman, hit her in the bridge of the nose (there were huge bruises under her eyes, she spent half of her vacation wearing glasses). She told us that she turned to the reception, a Bach employee immediately went to her for medicines and ointments. The hotel refused to compensate (at least with a free tour) for the accident. The only thing, they offered to move to another room.
Towels are poorly washed, gray in color, but very large, you can turn around 2 times. The foot towel was always brought later or even forgotten about it.
There were slippers, bathrobes on request. We asked for it - we brought it without any problems.
Some midges were also flying in the toilet (not that they were flying, but they were sitting on the sink, in the toilet). They didn't bite, that's how we understood it from the sewer. They weren't in the room itself.
The bed in the room is comfortable, large.
There is also a safe, a wardrobe, a large dressing table with drawers and a mirror, a coffee table, an ottoman, two bedside tables. The room lighting is good.
There was enough room for everyone in the restaurant, as it was not too hot outside and people could stay outside. During the heat wave, I think not everyone will have enough space inside the restaurant.
The meal periods are quite long. Breakfast 7-30 - 10-30
Lunch 12-30 - 15-00
Dinner 18-00 - 22-00
There are snacks after lunch and at night, we were not. We don't know what they give there, respectively.
The food is monotonous, but you can always find something for yourself. We ate too much and even very much!!! They write the pure truth about fruits - you can say no to them. Watermelons and melon are not delicious, sliced oranges and grapefruit. I liked the coffee, the juices are very tasty.
Alcohol is not bad in bars, and several cocktails are also made according to the all-inclusive system. Beer in cans: Amstel, Kaiser (cans are given only in open form).
There is also a tonic and soda in jars. Sprite, cola, fanta - everything is poured from bottles. Packaged juices.
The territory is quite large, well-groomed, there was often no paper in the toilet near the beach bar and it was dirty. There is no toilet at all near the pool and the bar next to the cabana rooms. That is, it is convenient to be there only for those who live in the rooms of the boar and can go to the toilet in their room.
The pools are nice clean, warm. Rescuers are always on the spot.
There are slides, we even took a ride.
They wrote that the water there is cold, we did not notice, in my opinion it is very good. They are turned on quite often.
The beach would be wonderful if it weren't for the tides. When the tide is high, it is very comfortable to go swimming in the sea. When the tide is out, it is very unpleasant to walk along the bottom, there is some kind of slime under your feet (worse than in the lake), near waist-deep water buoys. Anapa is better!!! We spent the whole day on the beach starting in the morning, so we had time to swim during high tide.
The animation is good. Well done guys. We went to watch only the evening one, but they worked all day, vacationers enjoyed doing exercises, doing yoga, water aerobics, playing water polo, etc.
We went on an individual excursion (two pairs by car) to Dubai. We took it from Anna at the reception. We recommend it.The guide David tells everything very interestingly, answers all questions, adapts to your wishes. I liked the fact that everything was set up for us, we calmly, slowly examined everything, did not wait for anyone and did not catch up as happens on group excursions. The car is a large 7-seater Jeep. If 6 people go, it will be even more profitable. By the way, we signed up with the guys for the trip to Top Hotels!!!! We met at the hotel and had fun on vacation!!!!
We went to the shopping center to the left of the hotel (walking 35-40 minutes). To the right of the hotel we walked to the bulk island. There is a stunning view of the Persian Gulf, the embankment is sooo well-groomed, beautiful, there is a huge Playground, rental of scooters, cars, a cafe. Walk to the beginning of the embankment in 20 minutes.
The last point about bedbugs. We did not have them, no one complained at the hotel, the guys lived in a boar, they also did not complain about any living creatures in the room.
A good hotel, the food is delicious, but since the chef is an Indian, it's a little island, but the choice is great. The pool is open from 8 to 18. This is probably a minus, I want to swim in the evening. There are aqua slides, a disco.
Hello, dear colleagues-applicants for a great trip! Now we are in a hotel, our vacation is coming to an end, so we can appreciate this hotel at its true worth.
Three-course meals: chicken, beef, fish (cod, mackerel), rice, pasta, potatoes, vegetables, fruits. The restaurant closes during lunch and you have to arrange a massacre for a free table.
A bunch of locals come for the weekend, it becomes impossible to swim in the pool, noisy, crowded.
In the room only on the third day we received a bed for a third person together with bed linen, before that we slept together on a single bed.
In the pool bar, the glasses are not washed, they are rinsed clean with water, complete dysentery.
Would we have come here yet, definitely not
I'll be brief, the hotel is not expensive, so you shouldn't expect anything special. Everything is in order: the food is without frills, but you won't stay hungry; the rooms are tired, they are cleaned so-so, but if you don't find fault much, it will go; there are sometimes stains on the bed linen, although you can see that they were washed, probably just old; there are 2 swimming pools, it was quite enough for us; something is constantly being cleaned on the territory and they are repairing; the beach with a very gentle entrance, sandy, although not deep to swim, but we liked it; in general, if you go to sunbathe, swim and relax from everyday problems, you will achieve your goals
I had a rest in the fall with the children, the food is varied every day, the sea is very warm, convenient entry, animations, the bar has everything you need
I had a rest in 2022. Cozy, though far from the malls. You have to take a taxi. The food was good. The sea is very warm. Ebbs and flows, but they are everywhere in AOE. Of course it's not 5 stars, but it's quite good for your money.
Very nice hotel! The territory is quite large, right along the beach. The food is excellent, even at night at 1.30 they feed the staff like mice rustling
A great family hotel, the staff tries to speak Russian, there are slides, a swimming pool, a Jacuzzi, events with animators for children.
Fans of children's disco and show program for adults.
I was with my wife at the end of January 2023, I really liked the food for the top five. The disadvantage of the reception is that there are no Russian-speaking admins. The cleanliness of the hotel is excellent, the drinks are excellent, the cleaning starts well too late
I love this hotel. For me, the best hotel in the EMIRATES has been there about 5-6 times and I will go again. Russian-speaking staff. The hotel is at the level of 10 to 15 points)))
We rested from April 10 to April 19 with two children 7 and 1.4 years old. The weather was gorgeous +32 gr, water +25
We arrived at the hotel late in the evening. They settled right away. But the beds for two children had to wait about an hour. Although the travel agent sent a request in advance.
They gave the room a slightly higher category without extra charges, since there were no standards. But in principle, it does not differ from a regular room, except for the sea view.
Room, hotel: tired rooms and furniture. Shabby in places. Cleaned daily, sometimes forgot to report towels. There is a free bar in the room.
Territory: the territory of the hotel is quite large. Lots of greenery, birds, cats.
There is also a free fitness club.
2 outdoor pools, outdoor jacuzzi.
Food: Of course, they didn't stay hungry, but the food is monotonous, the choice is meager.
For breakfast porridge, omelette, muesli.
For lunch and dinner: daily one type of fish (for an amateur), stringy beef, chicken.
Pasta, potatoes, rice, soups.
It was problematic to feed the child 1.4 g, I ate mostly pasta, sometimes potatoes.
Dishes are mostly spicy, with spices.
In the morning there is always a queue for coffee, an omelet and a toaster.
At lunch and in the evening, there is a queue for the main dishes.
From fruits: watermelons, melon, finely chopped apples, oranges and grapefruit slices.
Despite the fact that the staff was always polite, smiling, there was special attention to the baby)
Alco, drinks: real Fanta, Cola, sprite. A 7-year-old child broke away.
A large selection of alco, it seems not bad. Amstel beer in glass jars. Bottled water can be taken at any bar and in the dining room. Also leave 2 bottles in the room.
Beach, sea:
Our main disappointment! The sea is covered in algae (In the morning, more or less, you can swim, since the tide is high. And after lunch .. the water is knee-deep to buoys and muddy. There were enough sunbeds for the first 5-6 days, but the last couple of days there was some kind of influx of tourists and in the morning I had to look for empty seats.
The sand is good, small, the children stuck for a long time.
Animation: the biggest plus of the hotel. Yoga, yoga, dancing, Aqua aerobics. A children's room where children are engaged in: drawing, making crafts. You can leave a child from 5-6 years old for free.
Location: We liked that Sharjah Airport is not very far away. 45 minutes on the transfer.
By taxi for 20 dirhams you can get to the nearest mall. Or walk about 30 minutes.
In general, the hotel is for three. I would not recommend it because of the strong tides, algae and the lack of a children's menu.
A pension for pensioners. Check-in at 15.00 is evicted at exactly 12.00 and the bracelets are removed.The food in the dining room is the same every day. (diet table).There are no balconies, it is forbidden to open windows.The rooms are very damp. Even the laundry is wet. I DO NOT RECOMMEND IT
This is Dubai, what could be cooler than being here on your birthday! Dreams come true, the weather is amazing, the sea is warm. The ebb and flow are insignificant, there are questions about the menu, but when you rest it is so insignificant!
