United Arab EmiratesStaff were super kind, polite, smily, happy, helpful and exceeding customer expectations all the time. I didn’t get all the names, but those I had more contact and an AMAZING experience were Rachel and Metri from hotel concierge, Deepak from bar/restaurant, Samai and Ali from amazing half day tour, Hussen from Arena water sports, Belal from beach apparel and Adriano from tour concierge. There are plenty of options for breakfast, with focus on asian food. Rooms are very spacious, clean, comfy and with a stunning view. The hotel arrange your pick up and drop off from the airport (at a cost). Roof top pool with an amazing ocean view.
