A great place to relax and be alone with your family. It's a quiet place, there's no animation, we didn't need it. When leaving the green territory of the hotel with small houses, you immediately get to the embankment on one side, and the city on the other side. Shops, market, pharmacy, parks are within walking distance. In the evening, you can walk to the singing fountain. The hotel has a swimming pool, a bus goes to Al Khan beach every morning at 9:00, back at 13:00, towels are provided at the hotel. If you return by taxi, then 13.5 dirhams, this is the minimum amount, and everywhere, according to the meter, but not less. Breakfast, lunch and dinner at a nearby hotel are monotonous, but for some reason they do not bother, everything is delicious. The whole house was booked at once, as previously there was a review that poor sound insulation and food smells. When we settled in, we understood. There are 2 rooms in the house, their cost is different, one room with a kitchen (dishes on request), one without a kitchen, separated by an interior door with a gap at the bottom, definitely neighbors or you will interfere with each other. The bathroom of room 701 is equipped with handrails for people with disabilities. I really liked it.
We had a rest at the hotel in early December. Positive:
Pleasant territory, cozy, green. Normal more or less breakfasts, a beautiful restaurant in holiday Inn, where breakfasts are held. Bed linen is changed every day, towels too, if you throw them on the floor. Shampoos, gel, soap, tea, coffee, water are all replenished without problems and even more than necessary, there is a transfer to the beach and to the Dubai shopping center (we did not use it, the time was not convenient, we took a taxi ourselves), a very comfortable bed.
Cons: The hotel is tired, requires a general cleaning of everything that is possible, and repairs! The furniture is old, there are layers of dust in the corners, the sofa in the living room is very dirty, the mattress on it is also very worn.
There are a lot of crows and cats on the territory, in the morning they all scream from 5 o'clock and wake up, it's annoying. For some reason, the guests feed all these animals and this makes them even more.
The most unpleasant thing: we were first settled in room 4502, this is the second floor in a house by the road and right next to the reception. After the road, we fell asleep and did not pay much attention to the very very noisy ventilation or something like that, the sound is like from a very loud washing machine, the sound does not stop, we spent two nights there and almost went crazy, asked to change the room, which no one was even surprised, all the employees already know that there is such a problem. Please note that only Russians are accommodated in this room, and a family was also settled right after us. We were moved to room 302 with its own lawn (we asked for one of these), the room turned out to be for the disabled, it was even dirtier than 4502, the doors were dirty, the curtains were dirty, just a nightmare, dust in all corners. There is not even a small partition in the bathroom between the toilet and the shower, as a result, there is always water and dirt everywhere in the bathroom, you have to walk in beach slippers in the room. Also about the pool, it is very deep, it is not convenient for children, there is something like a children's pool under the roof, there is mold all around, like some kind of paddock. Holiday Inn has a much nicer pool, but we still haven't figured out if we can use it. This is certainly not 4 stars at all. We would not have gone to this hotel 100% a second time.
A very nice hotel with excellent detached houses for 2-4 rooms. Good breakfasts, everything is delicious and varied. Room service is on the level. A swimming pool with an area under the roof, convenient for children so that they do not get burned in the sun.
During our stay at the hotel, the series was filmed, apparently, the territory attracted the filmmakers with its flavor))
Very nice hotel! Large territory, renovated rooms, friendly and very professional staff. It is located in a convenient and beautiful location. The photo shows the Junior Suite 4402 and the view from the balcony. A new visit to the photo of the master suite 4201 is the best experience.
If you want to relax in the city center in a green oasis, come here! excellent location near the promenade. There is a shuttle service to the beach, a heated pool, good rooms. I have very positive impressions about the hotel.
Great hotel. Cozy rather large houses, rooms have water, tea table, shampoos, etc. (all are regularly replenished). Very comfortable bed, daily cleaning. Breakfast/lunch/dinner at the nearby HI. The only drawback is the beach, it is far away and public.
We had a vacation in April 2024 with friends.
A small village in the center of the city, that's what I would call this place. Cozy, comfortable, small one- and two-storey buildings. We had a separate one-storey villa with two entrances. Inside there is a kitchen and a huge living room.
For the kitchen, they brought us the basic things we needed (plates, utensils, pots, pans). We had lunch at the villa and had dinner at restaurants. There is a small very warm (heated) swimming pool on the territory. There were very few people, although the houses were all occupied. Therefore, spending time by the pool is relaxation.
In the morning, after breakfast (breakfast at the hotel), a bus arrives, which takes you to the beach, and picks you up from there, but you can also come by taxi if you are going to chill at the sea all day.
The breakfasts are good, not very varied, but we had enough. Porridge, eggs, scrambled eggs, omelets, sausages, vegetables, juices, coffee, sweets.
The lawn on the territory is well-groomed, the territory is not very large, but "its own". Nearby, to go out through the gate, there is already a walking area, as they say, from the ship to the ball! From here you can reach the center of Sharjah and local attractions. Convenient location!
The only drawback is that there is no bar by the pool as such, where you could come up and order non-alcoholic cocktails or juices. There is a menu, they can cook and bring juice.
My impression is 5 points. I recommend
Pros: the location is gorgeous, there are many shops, cafes, a fresh fish market where you can cook it, a promenade and a private exit to it from the hotel, villas with their own green lawn with palm trees, a table and chairs on the veranda in the evening you can sit..The staff solved all the problems as they arrived.Cleaning is daily, everyone brings what you ask.
Cons: there is no sound insulation inside the villa, the room is separated from the next room by an ordinary door, the neighbors got noisy with 4 children, respectively, for those who are picky and love silence there will be a problem. The playground was closed, apparently for repairs.
Good afternoon! Friendly staff, hospitable receptionist. Beautiful spacious rooms. Cleaning was carried out regularly, every day without complaints. Hygiene kits are the best, L'occitane is a separate respect. The half board was excellent at the restaurant. Unfortunately, my husband had a birthday on the day of arrival, despite the advance notification of the travel agent, the hotel did not mark it in any way....
Now we are resting in this hotel (October 2023)
Food: we only have breakfast, not very diverse, but there is a small choice
Location: the hotel is located almost in the center, there are many cafes and restaurants nearby, in addition to local ones, KFC, Burger King are within walking distance.
There is a large shopping center nearby, there is an embankment, a water park and a Ferris wheel in walking distance (but, in the heat, it is better to take a taxi).
Taxis are all state-owned, they don't cheat and everyone has the same price tag.
Rooms: comfortable, large. There is a kitchen in the room, only kitchen utensils have to be asked by the staff.
You can also ask for a clothes dryer and extra bed linen, if necessary. There is an ironing board and an iron in the room.
The rooms located on the ground floor have their own terrace.
There is a bus to the beach every morning. You can get back by taxi, or by the same bus, the only inconvenience is the schedule (comes to the beach after 13, when it's very hot)
Beach towels can be rented at the hotel.
In general, the hotel is satisfied with all issues, there are no complaints)
A wonderful hotel in terms of price-quality ratio.the staff is very polite and attentive, they respond to all requests instantly.The meals are varied, held at the Holiday Hotel.Would I go back to this hotel? Definitely, yes.

We had a great rest, the hotel did not disappoint, I chose it for a long time and seriously. I work in a travel agency and I always choose the best option for my vacation. Marbella is the only resort in Sharjah, the whole hotel consists of 2 storey houses, each with one two-room room, the second three-room. The hotel was built in 1976 and completely renovated, everything in the rooms is working properly. The reception speaks only English, all wishes are fulfilled with lightning speed. The pool with cool water is open from 9 to 21. Towels are given separately to the beach separately to the pool, the colors are different.
The bus shuttle takes you to Alkhan beach at 9 there, at 13.00 back. Those who did not manage to squeeze in took a taxi. It takes 10 minutes by taxi, costs 15-17 dirhams.
There is also a shuttle to the Deira City Center in Dubai, we went several times. From there on to the city by metro.
Breakfast is served at a nearby hotel, Sharjah International, with one host at the hotels.
The location is great for Sharjah - the Corniche embankment is 100 meters away, there are all the entertainment, a promenade, singing light and music fountains ...
In general, the 4 * hotel is quite working out.
The sea is warm, clean, the beaches of Alkhan and al Mamzar are beautiful!
A pleasant and cozy oasis among skyscrapers. Small villas with two or three rooms, green lawns, a small but cozy swimming pool.
It is a pity that part of the infrastructure has been moved to the nearby Holiday Inn
I liked the hotel because it is an oasis among the skyscrapers. With a child, it is just the perfect place for an economical vacation in Sharjah. Some villas are not renovated, in poor condition. We changed the number. The food is monotonous, but you will not stay hungry.
The impression is twofold. Among the advantages - an oasis among the concrete jungle, birds, silence, beautiful views of the embankment, transfer to the beach and to the Deira City Center, there is where to walk and where to go.
Among the disadvantages are very unequal living conditions, i.e. if you are settled in a bungalow with room 02, then there will be no kitchen with a microwave, and evening gatherings at a table in a green clearing. All this is located nearby, near the bungalow with the number 01. You'll get the noise from the door and the smells from the kitchen.
But otherwise everything is good enough.

A cozy and pleasant hotel with green areas and bungalows. A large well-maintained area where you can walk and listen to the chirping of birds.
Cats come in the evenings. They are very nice, but they always try to get into the house if the door is open.
There is a large pool, but it feels cool enough because of the contrast of air and water (in October, the air heats up to 36 in the afternoon).
Polite staff. There is a transfer to the beach and to Dubai, towels are provided.
The hotel itself has not been new for a long time. There are practically no dishes in the houses with a kitchen, you need to buy. Cosmetics in the rooms are cheap.
But the atmosphere and location are pleasant, near the lagoon, amusement park, pharmacies, supermarkets and cafes.
Nice hotel. We lived on the second floor. View of the Ferris wheel and the water park. It was hot, of course, but the air conditioner was working properly) We had breakfast at a nearby hotel, apparently one owner. A cooling pool, a rescue in this heat. There is a free bus to the sea every day at 9.00 there, at 13.00 back, but the sea is like fresh milk, I did not want to swim there.
We rested in Marbella from 02.03.24-05.03.24 after a cruise in the Persian Gulf.I wanted peace and quiet after a huge noisy liner with a huge number of people. And here I got it. We lived in Villa 1702, located approximately on the quiet middle line. The villa had two rooms: a living room with a sofa, a table, a TV and a bedroom. Bathroom with shower.In the hallway there was a refrigerator on which there was a small tea area with a kettle, cups, sets of tea and coffee. Two 200 ml bottles of water were added daily.Every morning at 9 a.m. the bus took us to the beach and picked us up at one o'clock in the afternoon. The pool is deep enough to work until 20h, beach towels are also provided there.The breakfasts are good, there is porridge, several hot dishes, good pastries, watermelon, melon.Coffee is brought from the coffee machine at your request.The staff is helpful and friendly.Cozy, calm.We liked it, we want to come back.
The hotel is gorgeous , very good staff work here , I would like to mention the employees of Zain and Faisal separately , they do a thorough cleaning and are always ready to replace everything
A very beautiful embankment, a lot of shops where you can't leave empty-handed, my daughter rode cars there every day, and my grandmother and I took pictures of fountains. THESE FOUNTAINS ARE VERY BEAUTIFUL!!!!
Not the first time in Sharjah, I really like Sharjah…Palm trees, greenery. A lovely hotel with a good location near the green lagoon. There is a place to walk. There are supermarkets nearby where you can even buy ready-made food. The dining room in a separate building is 5 minutes away. The food (breakfast) is good, pancakes, omelets, sausages, fruits, vegetables, desserts. Everything is delicious and satisfying. The staff speaks English. we checked in as we arrived at 11 am. The rooms are good, two-room.There is a kettle and a hairdryer in the room. There is a balcony, a table there, chairs. The pool worked alone, heated. There is a bus to the beach.they take you to Alkhan beach (10 -15 minutes). We took a taxi a couple of times for 350-400 rubles. There is a bus station not far from the hotel, you can take a bus to the metro, and then to Dubai. Which we did a couple of times. Nearby is the Steam Train market, where you can buy Arabic perfumes at good prices. There is an exchange office. Near the fruit market, they sell dates. Fish market, you can choose fish or shrimp, which will be cooked there. I liked everything very much. I would definitely return to this hotel. As in the UAE.
A wonderful place to relax, two-storey houses. Our room was on the ground floor with access to the terrace. The room has everything you need, in the morning we brewed coffee in a turk and drank at a table near the house under palm trees. We went to the main, new building for breakfast and dinner (since it's all one complex), where we also really liked it.
We liked the hotel, we were accommodated in a villa closest to the pool, which was convenient. The breakfasts are very good, I don't know what people are complaining about. I liked everything, thank you
I liked the hotel. It is located on the waterfront of the Khalid Lagoon.A very beautiful view of the lagoon, there is a place to walk in the evening.The breakfasts are regular:egg dishes, porridge, juices,pastries, sausages, cheese.Dinner and lunch are great:meat, chicken, fish, seafood 3 times, delicious desserts.1.5 liters of water were always put in the room, coffee, tea, shampoos were replenished.The linen was changed.There was a transfer to the beach and to Dubai.No deposit is needed.
Everything is excellent!In addition, the bed linen is not changed, it is simply made beautifully.Towels were changed, shampoo, shower gel, conditioner replenished.I would like to have a clean bed changed in 10 days of stay.Otherwise, everything is fine!
A great hotel. Very convenient location. There are many restaurants around. There is a place to walk in the evening. There are markets nearby. The service is good. The breakfasts are delicious. In the morning, the hotel bus takes you to the beach. There is also a hotel bus to the shopping center. The staff speaks a little Russian.
The same territory as the Holiday hotel, the rooms are decent, the territory is large and green by the standards of the UAE, the location is excellent, the center.
We rested in Marbella 2 times, we liked everything, the Emirate of Sharjah, the quietest and most peaceful emirate, there is very strict with drinking alcohol. Marbella is like an oasis, it's green everywhere, and the rooms are bungalows. In 2020, after the renovation, everything became different, more modern. In general, everything was fine, the staff is good, there is a Russian-speaking administrator. I advise you to go to Sharjah and relax at the 4-star Marbella Resort hotel.
Great hotel! There is everything for a comfortable stay, we lived in a suite, a non-standard room, a huge bed , there is a shower, there is no bathtub. There is a heated swimming pool on site, breakfasts were included, there is no variety of breakfasts. I recommend you to visit, the bus to the beach is free. To the beach 10min
We lived in a beautiful large villa, we are very satisfied with the work of the staff, cleaning, and equipment of the villa. The pool is clean and warm, towels are provided for both the pool and the beach.
Of the disadvantages, except that cats are on the territory - unless you are allergic (obviously, they rarely enter the rooms)
An oasis in the concrete jungle.
We had a family vacation: two adults, two children. The room was taken by a Master suite, with a kitchen. Large, two-room. The repair is not new, but normal. They are cleaned cleanly, if you ask them to focus on floors or plumbing, then they perform without any problems. The staff is helpful. It's very cool that there is its own green lawn.the birds are singing. It is very pleasant to sit on the veranda in the evenings.There is an internal gate on the territory of the hotel, which opens from the same card as the room. Through it you get directly to the embankment along the lagoon. Within walking distance of butterfly Park, amusement park. The location is simply gorgeous. We took a taxi to the beach, because the transfer left later, and it was already hot. Breakfast in a nearby Holiday. It is quite diverse and delicious. If a hotel is a villa, then you need to be prepared for the neighborhood with the local fauna. But these are harmless lizards and beetles. In general, we liked everything.
Nice unusual hotel.
I like to live practically, in nature, Much better than in huge hotels.
It's a real vacation here.
And the beach is nearby .
That's just, it was necessary to go far for breakfast, even to the neighboring hotel.
And the food is not very good.
But, but you can cook in the room!
I'll come here again!
A wonderful hotel in Sharjah, in the center. They offer accommodation in bungalows. There is no private beach. There are Steam Trains nearby-Gold suk (gold market). I liked the territory, cozy bungalows. But it's a little noisy. When cleaning the room next door, it feels like they're cleaning your place.
The hotel is old, they don't build it like that in the Emirates now. The architecture is archaic, but in general the territory is thought out. The pool is small. The rooms are nice, with fresh furniture. Lived in a master suite with a kitchen and two rooms. From the hotel in early March there were transfers to the beaches and to the Deira City Centre shopping center. It takes about half an hour by taxi from the hotel to the center of Dubai, but on a working day, due to traffic jams, this time can greatly increase. Keep in mind, there are traffic jams. You can use public transport, but it's more for the sake of general interest. For a tourist, it won't be much cheaper if you live in Sharjah. There is a place to walk from the hotel. You can, for example, walk to the square with restaurants or to the Train market. By taxi it is not far to go to the Aquarium, the Al Jazeera Amusement Park and the cool Al Mamzar Park with excellent beaches and barbecue areas. In summary, I had a good rest and expensive, but I won't go to Sharjah anymore)
Outdated room stock. We lived in a 2-room apartment, like a bungalow, there are no dishes in the kitchen at all. Breakfast is boring, but you can't leave naked. The pool was heated in February, we swam, but it also needs repair
Pros location, territory, we really like that there are rooms with a kitchen, near the fish market, of the minuses, except for a trip to the beach and even then it's still OK, but back, it would be better to have your own bus, well, it's probably worth thinking about a trip to the beach after lunch from 15 hours to 19

A great hotel with its own outdoor pool! It is made in an ethnic style in the middle of huge modern high-rise buildings)around the walking distance of everything you need!)
We stayed at this hotel in January 2022, we had a room with access to the lawn, it was very nice to sit at a table in the courtyard in the evening. The room is cozy, the furniture and furnishings are not new, but also not shabby. The room had a kitchen with dishes, a stove, a large refrigerator. We went to a nearby cafe to eat, very tasty breakfasts and lunches, all the dishes were adapted to our usual cuisine. There was even a gap. They took you to the beach at 10 a.m., even in January you can swim safely, it's hot in the afternoon. It is cooler in the evening, +19 approximately
Nice hotel. Everything is close, there is a Lulu and an exchange there. A good and hearty breakfast. In the evening near the embankment to walk and there are a lot of seals)
Great hotel. There was a two-room suite with two balconies and a kitchen. The location is great. Daily cleaning, towels were changed, no linen. The staff is friendly, they will help you with everything.
Service, staff - everything is fine. The territory is quiet, there are few people. The bungalow has its own kitchen, very convenient for those planning to cook. Near the pool there is a bar with fresh fruit and ice cream.
Villas or apartments, in Arabic style, in the city center. There is a large selection of food. The rooms are spacious. Service for 5. The territory is large.
An old, but very kind hotel. In the center of Sharjah. Near all the sights. Cafe in the form of a teapot with masala tea and donuts - 10 points out of 5!!!!
