The complete disappointment of the vacation. They say We went to the Sea, but in fact we arrived in a swamp. Instead of sand - crushed stone crumbs)))) The bay of standing water . The child 2.5 caught an intestinal infection , the temperature is 39.5 , thank you for your time, money and mood .
I hope this review will save someone .
Because I fell for them myself, rating 5.0 and 1000 and reviews, it was difficult to resist.
There were no questions about the Food, and it was really delicious and varied. But this did not save the situation.
The hotel is not 5 stars at all.
The rooms are an old housing stock that has been in need of renovation for a long time! The room cleaning was terrible and the service included, I had to constantly call the reception asking for "towels, blankets, bathrobes and a toilet.papers)))"
Sun beds on the beach on their last legs (side 16+), towels are thin, washed like a doormat.
In general, you can write for a long time, the "Rixos" grid matches 0!!!
Super! An oasis in the middle of the desert.
Truly ultra all inclusive: 14 bars and restaurants, the main restaurant with a wide selection of dishes and themed evenings, unlimited a la carte, replenished minibar. A large territory of the hotel and a huge beach (but sand with shells). The staff speaks many languages. You don't have to leave the hotel.
An excellent hotel for families with children only. It is not suitable for young people and for parties. There is no entertainment. The evening shows are kind of boring. There is nowhere to go outside the territory, just take a taxi somewhere. The bay is boring, just sand, no fish, no corals. But the food and alcohol are on top!
Great hotel! Very very responsive and friendly staff! In the best traditions of Turkish all inclusive. Every day of the week dinner is dedicated to one of the cuisines of the world! There is always a large selection of dishes! During the day, super delicious ice cream is distributed at the pool! Hotel staff 🔥🔥🔥
A pleasant hotel, like all hotels in this chain. The rooms are a little tired, for the hotel level, I think it shouldn't be like this. There are no gaps in nutrition and service.
I really like this hotel. A great beach with white sand and a safety net. Excellent nutrition. Diverse. Several cuisines of the world. An interesting cultural program with live music and a grandiose performance.
Honestly, it doesn't look like rixos, everything is impossible and the timing of the food is not very good. It's better to take a rixos on a palm tree. The rooms are large but not very fresh. it takes 2 hours to drive from the airport
The hotel is magnificent. Yes, it's not new anymore. But everything works. Or if it doesn't work, the staff will do everything to make it work. The power supply is 5+. There were no bedbugs. At least in the Marmar building there is 1 floor. I really liked everything
A normal status hotel with delicious food, a very cool variety of workouts, good cocktails at the bar and a delicious cappuccino in the lobby. A little boring since it's far from the city, but the memories are only positive.
A world-class hotel chain! You can order food every day in a new restaurant !
The coastline is clean, sun beds, a bar, everything is available! Cleaning of rooms on 5*****+
A water park for children!!! For adults - show programs!!! Water in the Persian Gulf +38, +42
Super hotel !!!
Do not contact the hotel guides!!! They sell all excursions for 2.5-3 times more expensive!!! Go to Instagram and you will find everything cheaper there!!!!
A very good hotel for families with children or just adults) food, rooms, bars, beach, animation, children's entertainment, playgrounds, we really liked everything ☺️
Great hotel! Food, drinks, especially children's animation. Standard all-inclusive vacation. There is a small minus - the bottom of the sea is not cleaned, walking on algae in the mud is extremely unpleasant. Take coral slippers with you, they will save you from hot sand. The rest of the shortcomings are minor, I won't even write. I advise you boldly. We will definitely go again. The July heat did not strain. Everywhere there are outdoor air conditioners, cold water, playgrounds under canopies.
Good day everyone! I want to share about the rest at the Rixos Bab Al Bah hotel in Ras al Qaim. I'll share about the flight later. We rested from February 28 to March 8, 24. They brought us to the hotel at 10.45 by micro bus, the settlement took place as standard three families in one hotel, the road took 55 minutes from Dubai airport. But at 14.30 we checked in, a room with a beautiful view from both sides of the blue surface. There is a green lawn carpet in the middle. The room on the 5th floor is 2501.Everything was clean, the towels were white, there was everything for the face, dental and body and hair gels, and of good quality. The furniture in the room is a little old, the corners on the table and bedside tables are broken, but this did not affect us positively. Many people say that lunch is not served before check-in, but we had lunch at exactly 13.00 hours. No ribbons are attached to anyone's hands. I'll be honest about the food, there is everything in a large assortment, but we know where we went on vacation, there will be no pork at home. The vegetables were delicious except the tomatoes. There are as many red fish as you want, but you can't count the fish dishes. The omelets outside are excellent. Porridge of 4 types. There are always mashed soups and broths. Alcohol has been pouring like a river since 10 o'clock, and there are good strong drinks and champagne too. The territory is well maintained and clean, there were a couple of rains. The sea is cool in the morning but very clean. There were no complaints about both the waiters in restaurants and bars and the bartenders, everything was in place. Professionals work at the reception, almost everyone knows Russian, problems are solved instantly. We would go again, we will definitely do it again.
My love 2023 in terms of hotel!
The first time in it and I liked everything! A separate respect for live music - violin, cello, piano - I listened with great pleasure. I was with 3 children of different ages - there is entertainment for any age. Ras al Khaimah is not a very developed emirate and it's a long way to Dubai, you need to take this into account when choosing a hotel, and the hotel itself is beautiful
Lovely hotel. The service is at the highest level. Excellent cuisine. Well-groomed territory, clean spacious beach, entertainment for every taste. Classical music is played in the lobby and on the small stage, and the lobby of the bar is modern.
In my understanding, the Rixos hotel chain is prestigious, cool! But if you compare it with Turkey, everything is different in the UAE, here they are very, very slow (I was vacationing in Rixose in Turkey and I know what I'm talking about). The hotel is focused mainly on Kazakhstan. For food back and forth, definitely not the Turkish top five, as well as for alcohol! There are pools for children, both for small and slightly older ones. For adults there are separate pools with a bar.There is animation, but it's hard to call it by that word. It was the beginning of June 2023, the tide was out and it was somehow not very good to go into the water and swim; algae, pebbles under your feet and fresh milk water. The views from the windows are not what, although the hotel consists of three buildings. The first days we played the game find your number! Everything is very confusing. But if someone swells up on the first day, he will definitely not find his number. The last closing bar where alcohol is poured is open until 01.00 (Sports Bar). So for information.Who needs to go shopping, there are transfers to Dubai. It takes about an hour to drive. Take a jeep tour of the desert. If you are lucky with the driver, you will get a lot of emotions. After the rides in the desert, the evening show. So-so idea. They will offer to go snowboarding, do not give in, it's complete nonsense! And so I can put a solid 3 to the hotel and for the fact that there is alcohol, that in the Emirates it is so far, like in our nineties.And so everywhere you need to look for your positives and the rest will be cool!

I returned on 03/25/24. The hotel is in the price / service ratio for a solid 4. We went with the children. There is everything for children (swimming pools, a water park, a disco, playgrounds, a club for teenagers - 5 Sony PS5 pieces, board games, air hockey, etc.). I was also pleasantly surprised by the presence of bars and a swimming pool - children are not allowed to enter, only 21+))). The beach is nice, sandy. The depth is gradual. There are a number of specialized restaurants on site. I recommend making an appointment immediately upon arrival, for free dates. There is also a chain supermarket 200 m from the hotel (there is everything from cigarettes to suitcases and chargers, gift sets with dates and halva and a lot of magnets and other paraphernalia). As an example, a pack of cigarettes in the on-site store costs 50 dirhams in the supermarket 20. The difference is 30 dirhams or 750 rubles per pack of cigarettes. There is such a difference in everything.
Nice hotel. The diet is excellent - fruits, vegetables, side dishes, fish, meat. The hotel itself is quite clean. The beach is small. There is little greenery on the territory.
A chic hotel, a beautiful territory, excellent cuisine !! Friendly, helpful staff! Russian Russian is the menu in the restaurant, and there is a staff who speaks Russian!! There is no language barrier!! Cleanliness is everywhere, the beach is convenient!!
We are now at the hotel. The last time was four years ago before the epidemic... by the way, there were four times ... everything was always super… we travel very often and visit hotels of different levels ... depending on whether active recreation or not. This time I just wanted a passive rest… In general: we arrived at the hotel early at 11 am- naturally we were not settled, but not a problem ... the room, as regular guests asked with a balcony (we smoke)... we were answered, everyone wants such numbers.... (well, OK, the fact that the regular guests are a girl named Azhar - "politely sent us." The room was given with a view of the road and a piece of the sea ... well, okay-we are essentially only spending the night there. Nooo: the room is just dead ... there is a stone plaque on the taps, rust everywhere, towels are scary ... bathrobes and slippers naturally were not brought until they insisted on it. Well okc…
Breakfast- zhuut..... there is nowhere to sit.... The queues are frenzied.... The food seems to be there-but in fact there is nothing to eat except egg dishes..... plates have to wait..
But when we came to lunch ( I want to say… That we only went to a shared restaurant for lunch once)…. We stood outside for about 20 minutes just to go to a restaurant. I think this is an unreal humiliation for hotel guests.IT'S RIXOS!!! That's why we didn't go any more… When we went inside… A sea of empty tables - it just turns out that the waiters do not have time to clean them ... probably there is no staff.. later we booked an Italian restaurant for lunch… There is absolutely nothing there… Well, at least some soup and pizza without queues....and humiliation .... We didn't go to the general restaurant for dinner at all... We booked Ala Kart restaurants all the time - the most delicious restaurant turned out to be meat, as before.
Animation used to be great... now it either doesn't exist at all… But during the whole week she was three times... "You can't look without tears"….
On the beach and by the pool , the sun beds are arranged so that it is even impossible to pass between them… It's good that there is a small area for adults and we were there all the time... there's a nice pool and a nice bar. I haven't tried cocktails, but coffee (though from the vending machine) is normal.
There used to be a gorgeous sauna and hamam ... Now - I don't even know what to call it ... just zhuuut.... They came in once and came out…
The hotel does not pull any stars .... Believe me, I am not capricious and I am not exaggerating. I will not advise anyone (although I recommended it to everyone) and I myself will never come again .... This is for 500 thousand a week for two!!!
The only person I want to say a big thank you to at the hotel is this girl named ELIZA, who is always friendly, smart and ready to help.... Although we only addressed the little things in the first couple of days - but her smile and attentiveness brightened up all the problems.
And yet..... Wi-Fi is just practically nowhere !!!!!!!
In general, goodbye rixos forever.....
We are resting for the 5th day already everything is Great!!! The food is just Great!!! The service is at a very high level!!!! Very good, vivid animation!!! I couldn't find any disadvantages.
We went on vacation from 23.04 to 01.05, with the company of 6 families. I will unsubscribe immediately, we will not come to this hotel anymore! For this money, it's better to go to Turkey.
Minus: the hotel is old, requires at least cosmetic repairs.
There is no children's club, from the word at all.
Sports equipment needs to be replaced, moreover, completely.
There is no evening life, evening discos are made only for the "tick".
At 22:00 you go to bed …
There is one restaurant for all guests 👎
At the entrance to the restaurant, they ask from which room? If you have been evicted but the car has not yet arrived to pick you up, you will not be able to eat "for free"👎
Playgrounds from 15 years ago , everything in the game room is killed to the edge 👎
The downside can be listed until morning!
Pros:
beer in cans is normal 👍🏽
The kitchen in the middle is not bad 👍🏽
I really don't understand why there are so many positive reviews here, I don't think we went to the normal hotels 🏨
Nice hotel. From lack of income. The main one is the sea. I would call it a puddle. The grid is close. There is silt and algae at the bottom. The water is disgustingly warm. Swimming is not allowed on the beach in the morning and evening. Bars operate on different schedules. The pool is open until 18-00. I would like more. Everything else is fine.
Good, varied food. Polite staff, helpful. The rooms were damaged, they were in the 21st year and now, the wear of the rooms is noticeable. For a family holiday for such an amount is an excellent option.
This is not the same Rixos that it was in 2016. They are still trying to keep the room stock at the same level, although it is no longer 5-stars. But with food and restaurant service, it's all very bad. Noise, noise, dirt and, in fact, not a large selection of food. There used to be a lot of open cafes along the beach where you could take fruits, coffee and pastries during the day, now there are restaurants for recording. It is difficult to get through for booking))If Rixos was conceived as a competitor to Turkish all-inclusive, then today it is undoubtedly losing and it is not visible that anything has changed for the better.
We are very disappointed that not all information about the services at the hotel is reliable.Namely, Ala carte restaurants exist only on paper, it is not realistic to write there not from the room, not from the reception. After persistent calls from the reception, the girl picked up the phone and dropped it.It all looks like a publicity stunt, but in the end it's a scam.
This is the third time in this hotel, I like it. A lot depends on the manager who receives you at check-in. Apparently we were lucky. By default, they were placed in a great room and without waiting for a check-in hour. The room is always large, with a balcony. The food is excellent, everything is delicious and a lot. The service is fast and clear. Room cleaning is normal, due to their peculiarities, there is no obsession with cleanliness. Of course, we have a swimming pool with a child, the sea here is not very suitable for children yet.
There are a lot of guests, a multinational team.
Evaluating the hotel staff, in my opinion, the reception desk is the most shitty. They're the last people you want to turn to.
A great hotel, with a huge selection of cuisine. Friendly staff, including Russian speakers, will always help, we personally got adapters for ARPB sockets.
The pools and the territory are clean, the territory itself, however, is not very large, but there is everything you need for a family holiday.
The food is very varied and delicious. A la carte restaurants are even included in the price, but I advise you to book them at the beginning of arrival, because there are almost no places in the evenings.
The bars are decent too, the classics are delicious. Sometimes they can pour too little or vice versa too much alcohol, from time to time they did not have to.
But the overall impressions of the rest at the hotel are excellent, I want to come back!
A great place to relax, both with a company and with children
Responsive staff
Food and drinks in a huge variety and quantity
This is the place where everything is thought out for relaxation and comfort
The friendliness of the staff is especially impressive
I remember the restaurant manager Ibrahim very much
We were a year ago, and a year later he remembered that we were)) so nice 🙌
As they say, there will be no pluses without minuses, so they are there in the hotel. It's probably easier to write in pink tones, but it's better to know about the flaws. The room was cleaned through the stump of the deck, then there is no soap, then there is no towel, then they came to clean at seven in the evening, when you already came from the beach ...
The room was taken for three adults, they gave a double and a barely cramped couch, as it turned out later, not only we were cramped for decent money. The room has one mirror in the bathroom, one key for a towel, one bedside table and a small wardrobe, well, you know, that is extremely small for three girls)))
In general, the hotel is good, the location is also good, there is a beautiful promenade with a gorgeous running track nearby!
The Persian Gulf is beautiful without comments. The coastline is always clean, as is the territory of the entire hotel.
The food is different, but almost all of it is spicy (I am allergic and speak for myself, someone likes it) so take medicines just in case. Drinks are not native! Good and expensive drinks are paid! The juices are not freshly squeezed, as it seemed to us at first, but when we saw how they were poured out of a bag into a large container, we realized this) Go to the a la carte record - pasta and pizza are very tasty, as well as burgers)))
And! More! At the entrance, everyone is charged money - tax, so to speak, for arrival))) $ and € in one digit - $ 11 per person is charged!
In general, everything is cool for children there! It's good for adults!
I recommend this hotel and place! Just consider this little thing that you wrote)
I really liked the hotel! The staff is attentive, the food is excellent, active animation for children and evening shows for adults. I would love to return to this hotel!
Great hotel. I liked everything. There were nuances with the number, everything was quickly resolved. For some reason, lunch was paid only on the day of departure, but we were fed for free, thanks to the staff.
A wonderful hotel, the cuisine is simply top class. Everything is beautiful, the beach, pools, parties. Minus one - tired rooms, but they are cleaned every day and very clean! They didn't want to leave.
This is a great choice for a holiday. The kitchen is of high quality, for almost all tastes. Of course with an eastern bias. Lots of seafood, good meat, vegetables, fruits and drinks. Trained staff. The rooms here are a little tired. The hotel is probably seven years old. Therefore, the bed linen and towels are not new at all. But you can use it because everything is clean. The pools are nice, comfortable with heated water in winter. The breakfasts are rich, the main thing is to walk and take a closer look first. The hotel is conveniently located. You can always find a taxi in the parking lot. WI-FI is not everywhere a good addition is if there is mobile Internet. Convenient for families with children. Alcohol is poured in the assortment. Do not leave your valuables - mobile phones and so on unattended in the rooms. There are complaints about thefts.
Cons: I took a Premium room, but upon arrival they wanted to sell me a deluxe suite with a view of the noisy road and the sea))) claiming that they had exactly this category in their system, although the voucher and the system cannot be different. I had to put the whole hotel, the tour operator and the travel agent on their ears. They ruined the whole impression of the holiday with their boorish behavior. When checking in, it is now apparently not customary to greet guests with compliments from the hotel. Well, or not in such a famous one, anyway. They cleaned badly, then they would forget to put towels, then dirty bed linen would be left on the floor... In a word, a tired hotel. I have not yet met such hotels of the Rixos chain ...
Advantages: The food is excellent, the hotel has a variety of dishes every day.
We stayed at this hotel in early December.Everything was fine, the weather was hot, the sea was a little cool, but you can swim. The food for 5+ was delicious.The rooms are in need of renovation.The room is always cleaned cleanly.We really liked this hotel, we recommend it to everyone.
A very pleasant hotel. A particularly tasty forge. Cool evening programs. But the sea in May and June is not very good. The pool is the best place to go
The hotel is old, the staff of the brakes expect not to give something and think it will do, the rooms are all changed three times from the stated one, it's dirty, there are queues in the dining room,the animation is boring, the food is normal but the choice is not big,people
A lot, they want to do the cleaning after
18.00 nonsense
The hotel is very rich. Everything is included. Very good kitchen, even for kids. Every day there are new presentations in the evenings, for children and adults. Excellent pools, both for children and adults.
a good hotel, we have already been in it with children 2 times, in 2024 in mid-February there was a greater load of the hotel than in 23, sometimes there were queues to the dining room and bar, if you go to the city, it is better to take a taxi that stands at the exit of the hotel on the left, to the pier and back + 4 hours waiting there $ 150, the hotel asks for $ 220, I liked the water park in Atlantis
The perfect vacation. You are really welcome there. Food, service, beach, pools, staff. The kids' club would be a little equipped and it would be super! It was the second time. Let's go again.
