Best Al Dhafra Hotels

"situated in gayathi, i loved the place. it is a little isolated and the room has a little quirky organization -- you have to take stairs to go the the bathroom -- but it is a perfect place to go if you have business in this region. the hotel was clean, staff were very kind, and the price was affordable. one complaint would be the screen by the pool was blasting indian music even after midnight, but I called the reception and they turned it off immediately. "

"Unfortunately, the experience was not at all comfortable. The bed was extremely uncomfortable; you could clearly feel the springs in your back, making it very difficult to sleep. The pillows and mattress were also uncomfortable. The reservation price was exaggerated compared to what was offered, and worse still, it did not include breakfast, despite the price suggesting otherwise. Also, the repeated false alarms were very annoying, and no explanation was given as to why or who was responsible for the false reports. Honestly, I don't know how the place got a 4.1/5 rating; the experience is completely unworthy of it."

"It is a quiet resort resort. Many office workers and family vacationers come here. Alcohol and food can be purchased nearby. There is a swimming pool. The beach is shallow, so it is good for children to play."

"Very nice, the environment is very good, the resort hotel. But the location is really remote and there is nothing around. However, the hotel has its own beach, which is not bad, and there are other hotels nearby, so there are several options for eating. There is also a Korean restaurant next to it, mainly to provide services for the nuclear power plant built by the Koreans nearby, and the food is good."

"Staff were friendly and welcoming. We were upgraded to a Seaview room which we really appreciated. However, I can't say it's exactly 5 stars yet, as someone who has been to five star hotels across 4 countries, there are certain stuff missing such a complimentary robes and slippers, toothbrushes etc, but of course the hotel is still fairly new and will probably improve over time. Cons during our stay: -There was construction there and the exits to the beach were closed. - There wasn't any buffet dinner the 1st few nights, they kept pushing out the time for dinner as they were hosting a soccer team and the buffet was planned accordingly to their timing, usually past 9.30pm which was too late. - The lunch and dinner menu is still fairly small. - The soccer team (young guys) were quite noisy at early parts of the morning in the outside breakfast area which was just outside our window. - The buffet dinner on Christmas day was absolutely small. - No bathtub in room and could not see which room had a tub listed online as it just mentioned '' shower or tub''. - Gym is extremely small. Pros: -Beautiful sea view. - Located in a Quiet and peaceful environment. - Lulu supermarket located just outside the hotel which makes it convenient. - Rooms had mini kitchen with cutlery and pots etc, washing machine and microwave, fridge etc, which was nice. - House keeping was available on request at any time. - House keeping staff were very friendly. - Security guard was very helpful and friendly. - We could have a small barbecue on the beach at late hours of the night. - Plenty parking. - Sea view room had a balcony. - Hotel provided a mini needle and cotton set which I found unusual and cute, definitely not something I've seen at other hotels. Overall the place has an amazing view, and I'm sure will improve as they develop and get more tourists. We enjoyed our stay and recommend it to others."

"They stay was very great, we really liked the place that was followed with an incredible services and friendly staff there, also the restaurant food was very delicious. but I have a little concern about the outside airstream furnitures that needs to be more cleaned as well as the bicycles need to be checked before the guest’s check in, as for everything else was super perfect. I shared some of my favorite pictures about my stay there . . Many thanks to you and to this beautiful place ✨"

"The characteristic of the whole island is that there are many animals but few animals. . There are only about 20 rooms near the sea, so you need to book in advance. There are many activities on the island, which can be booked on the first day of your stay. Horseback riding is 350 dirhams per person, kayaking is 245 dirhams per person, and taking a car to see animals seems to be around 300 (I can’t remember the specific price). . But the zoo only has various sheep, ostriches, giraffes, and peacocks, which are still very different from South Africa. . The restaurants on the island are not suitable for Chinese stomachs. It is recommended that you bring enough snacks or side dishes to the island. Al Sabania Island is close to Hilton Abu Dhabi Yas Island Hotel It’s about 260 kilometers, so it’s best to book a car in advance, especially when going back to the city from the island. There is no way to get a taxi from the pier. . The peacocks and sheep on the island eat everything. . Put some peanuts and melon seeds in the open air, and they will all come. . ."

"You need to go to the pier to board the boat to the island. From the beginning of the road, there are beautiful scenery all the way. There is almost no pollution. The sea is particularly blue. When you arrive on the island, take a bus to your respective hotel. There are three hotels of different styles on this island. This one is more wild and luxurious. The Little Africa is well-deserved. There are many animals in the room, peacocks, marmots, and spotted chickens. The photos are also very good. On the second day, I also participated in the African Safari and took many animal photos. It is particularly worth mentioning that the hotel staff on the first day of check-in, the brother was very warm and considerate to us, and he also cared many times whether the things we needed were delivered to the room in time. The next day, I wanted to thank him and found that he was resting and not in the hotel, which was a pity. The meal needs to be improved, because the hotel only has a BBQ buffet for dinner. We chose the buffet of another hotel in the same group on the island, and the food was also average. It is suitable for friends who don’t expect much from food. The Safari on the second day saw many animals and it was very good. It’s just very sunny and hot, so you need to take sun protection measures. This hotel is suitable for staying for 2-3 consecutive days. The journey is long but it’s worth it!"

"Make an appointment in advance for the time of the boat on the island to the dock butler one-stop service, lounge luggage are helped to send to the hotel and then the boat on the island to stay at the front desk to book activities diving fishing watching animals and so on safari tour guide brother is very good The rooms are very nice and the beach pool in the hotel is very nice and the photos are very good. Several hotels on the island have cars for each other. The dinner we chose costs AED 1,000 and there is a 15% service charge"
