Le Royal Meridien Beach Resort & Spa Hotel Reviews
" This was just beautiful. Fantastic... "
Submitted By: Mrs E Gow
This was just beautiful. Fantastic food served in all 7 restaurants in the hotel, especially Satchmo's.
We booked for bed & breakfast, when we arrived they upgraded us to Half Board.
Staff couldn't do enough for you and spotlessly clean.
Felt like Royalty for our stay and would highly recommend this hotel.
Free buses provided by the hotel into the city and to the souks.
Excellent.

The food was great, breakfast was included in the deal we had, which was buffet style pretty much anything you can think of. The seating area does get busy, and it can be too hot to sit outside depending on the time of year you go. We ate at a couple of the resturants in the hotel, steak resturant, which was very nice but the staff drive you mad asking if everything is ok and trying to top your glass up every 2mins, my husband had to tell them to stop in the end. Also went to the Arabic resturant which was fab, great food, lovely smell of shisha which you can sit and smoke. In terms of lunch as it was 40c most days and I was feeling the heat being pregnant we often ordered our lunch to have at the poolside on the sunbeds. Not a vast menu, I lived on club sandwhichs and chips, but you didn't have to move as you get waiter service right to your lounger! You do pay a premium for this, it's about the equivalent of £20-£25 for just a small lunch. You can of course go to the resturants which are cheaper and air conditioned. The other thing I loved was the staff bring round ice cold flannels through the day which smell of aromotherapy oils, also freezing cold bottles of water sprays, and litte kind of fruity slush puppy drinks for you - all to keep you cool - its wonderful!
The hotel has 3 pools all are great, we spent our time round a smaller quieter pool, always plenty of sunbeds , and if not the staff would get you one, they are very safety concious of the heat etc. The beach is lovely, although there seemed to be jelly fish in the sea which really put me off, especially in my condition. My husband didn't care and went in, and I even saw a little boy holding one. The lifeguard said they are not dangerous.
Staff cannot do enough for you, they will arrange anything you want! We got them to book afternoon tea at the Burj Al Arab for us, and a few other tables for dinner ar various hotels. Mina Al Salam is a good hotel to visit for dinner.
On our actual anniversary we returned to our room from a hard day of laying round the pool and shopping at the Emirates Mall, to discover a brilliant strawberry cake to say congratulations! Soooo coooollll! I would love to visit here again, most luxurious holiday I have had, would recommend to families, couples of any age, or singletons looking for a bit of relaxation and luxury. Lots of people had young babies there, the country is very geared up for children.
