No VIP status received. Didn’t actually get given a room until 6pm in the evening and we landed at 7am. Told when checking in hotel was full in the king category and yet I could go online and book multiple rooms in that category. Hotel rectified some bits with free breakfast, champagne etc but it shouldn’t happen in the first place. Communication was v poor. Hotels huge… like a shopping mall. if you forget something from your room, it’s a 20minute round trip. Hotel is dated too. Doesn’t feel like an exclusive 5 star. Saadiyat properties way nicer, more modern and sea much more appealing. That being said restaurants are good and the place looks 10000x better in the evening. Beach restaurant sand and koal v v good. Hakkasan gave my husband food poisoning. Overall wouldn’t return. Wrong price for what you receive.

The hotel was great - lovely beach and pool area. Even though the property is huge, our room was close to the family pool / beach / playground area which made everything very accessible. The restaurants are great. And even though the hotel tends to get a lot of visitors (who are not guests), they've done a nice job keeping certain areas only for guests.

Couple holiday

Wonderful hotel, amazing staff. We enjoyed the EP lounge and would recommend upgrading to this level. The food and all of the staff in the EP lounge were fabulous. We had 6 very relaxing days but then had to put up with building works and loud noise for 4 days and evenings while they were preparing for a large wedding. We felt this spoilt a large part of our holiday.
