    We were put in a suite at no extra charge, which was very large, with several toilets, a large table, a sofa and most importantly with a panoramic view and its own jacuzzi. It was incredible, we will remember this vacation for a long time.

    There is no button to open the balcony from the outside. You will definitely be locked out and have to ask someone to open the entire balcony. They also ask for a security deposit, which is unusual in most hotels in the UAE.

    The room is big and clean. The room was upgraded for free. The swimming pool is excellent for children, especially the young ones, and its opening hours extend until 8pm, which is great for relaxing with children. A wonderful experience overall.

    Outstanding customer service by the staff, everybody was extremely polite and efficient. I arrived a couple of hours earlier than the check in time (15h) and, since they didn't have the type of room I booked free when I arrived, they upgraded my room, free of charge, so I wouldn't have to wait! Really great service and I'd definitely stay here again. Not to mention the facilities, great food, great location.

    The european breakfast can have an improvement, the choices wasn’t that much. In general in was okay.

    The stuff was very friendly and polite everyone ready to help! They also upgraded our room to one with sea view. The bed was very comfortable. The rooms were very quiet, you couldn’t even hear the guests in the next room, good soundproofing!

    We had 3 single beds in the room for 4 people (2 parents, 2 kids). A fourth bed was offered by Al Raha but, for obvious reasons, this was not ideal. Better was if one of the beds was sized for 2 people. Makes more sense in a “family” room.

    High standards of cleanliness. Staff was generally helpful and flexible.

    - the 3rd floor had a very weird smell (of the carpets/water, unsure) it puts you off as soon as you get out of the elevators. - having stayed for 5 days - 6 nights, the breakfast buffet was repetitive for pure vegetarians, could include more options as well - they do provide shuttle services, to the theme park, but would expect more frequency. They were currently providing only two timings 10 am & 11.25am to the theme parks

    - The staff was really warm, right from the guards to everyone, who would always be smiling and greeting! - The rooms are in a very good condition (almost similar to the pictures on the net!) - hygiene was maintained at all levels.

    Nothing, all was perfect: food, service, cleanliness, and all.

    The staff were very friendly and highly accommodating. Tamsir at the front desk went extra mile to upgrade us to a better room and made sure to arrange for a birthday surprise to my family. Mahmoud, the shisha guy was beyond amazing serving at the shisha place. The house keeping staff Naresh, Merites, and Razzak did an amazing job arranging all the setup for the birthday surprise.

    Food at breakfast or dinner was always nearly the same, although quality was good and variety of foods but no change from day to day makes it boring. Also entertainment or live music more often in lobby or near pool is something which is missing for a hotel at this level. I saw only once live music in the lobby for short time during whole days of stay. Location far from everything.

    Honestly, nothing negative to say.

    Al Raha Beach Hotel is a very good hotel. It is very clean and has lovely, delicious food. Its staff is very nice and helpful. I'd like to thank to Prasad and Mukesh for their great cleaning job done every day. Our kids were very impressed by them both making different animal shapes from the towels.
