Great relaxing stay
Great resort with lots to do.
The gym at the sports centre was fantastic although a little annoying sometimes that the visiting football teams have block booked the whole gym for a couple of hours on some days.
There are numerous pools across all 3 hotels to use depending on your preference. The Lake View Hotel is the newest hotel but is situated 20mins walk away or 5 min shuttle buggy from the other two hotels on the resort.
There are numerous restaurants to eat at, i would recommend going for All Inclusive Plus so you dont have to worry about the cost of food and drink as it can be expensive otherwise. The AI plan covers for all restaurants in all 3 hotels apart from the Indian restaurant where they give you an allowance towards the bill, well worth the money still.
The only downsides:
Drifting track next door to the resort is very noisy and if the wind is blowing your direction the smell of rubber and dust is quite bad, especially at the weekends when its most busy.
The beach is lovely and sandy however there is a view of the construction of the Jebel Ali Palm straight ahead and to the right the Industrial Zone Port therefore not exactly a scenic view however it didnt bother us too much as the sun wasn't out to sea so you're not really facing out to the sea.
The resort is located outside of Dubai and takes a good 30 mins to transfer from DXB airport. The resort does have a free shuttle bus service to the malls every day but there's nothing in walking distance.
