This is our second stay at this resort and this time was even better! The resort truly is a luxury escape- the pool, the beach, the restaurants and the grounds, it’s very relaxing!! On this occasion we choose to stay here for our honeymoon and the added chocolates, balloons and romantic towel arrangements on the bed were amazing! Once again the service was impeccable and the cleanliness of our room was perfect everyday, which was down to the attentive service provided by Rama who was a polite gentlemen making sure we had a great stay. Facilities of the resort are great and it caters to everyone, the gym is also well equipped which great views! We ate at all the restaurants and the food/service is amazing, in particular Porterhouse which is the steak restaurant! You really don’t have to leave the grounds, it has everything you need! If I’m in Dubai again, Sofitel the Palm will be at the top of my list!

The beach is gorgeous and the water so clear amd also faitly shallow so safe for swimming and for families. The best thing about this hotel however were the staff. Every single person was so helpful and kind always with a smile on their face, from the reception to valet parking to the spa. A wonderful stay.

Le personnel est très accueillant. Le transport est facile, il y a toujours des taxis disponibles. L'hôtel, la réception, le parc et la mer sont parfait pour un séjour en famille avec et sans enfants. Le buffet du petit déjeuner est fantastique. Choisir si possible chambre côté parc. Le bar reste ouvert tant qu'il y a des clients.
