Ivano I. Couples - 24/03/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Short trip with a above expectation feel. I was surprised how well organized it was. I did not like the Rixos All inclusive experience in ras Al Khaimah as it felt cheap, but in Saadiyat it was way above expectations. Highly recommended. Only one issue was the bed mattress. Not sure if it was simply too soft or too consumed, but spent 2 nights in pain and didn't get proper sleep....i told reception but nothing was dont :( shame as i would not be back for the quality of sleep despite i adore the place.

Heather M. Couples - 21/03/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Your staff were always attentive and pleasant. Our room was lovely and the hotel grounds were well presented. The beach sun bed area was great when the wind permits! However you need more sun bed area for when the beach is less desirable. The beds were very comfortable, but just too close together. That is my only critism.

Our stay was a slice of paradise! As Abu Dhabi residents, our 2 night stay was the perfect combination of amazing food, drink and location with exceptional amounts of physical activities and outstanding staff. The decor of the hotel, pool and recreational areas are all immaculate with elements of Arabic design and culture. We switched off from life completely and left feeling relaxed and well-rested.

Everything was fine till we got the order from the Saudi embassy that we must leave the country due to corona issues and I spoke with hotel management to get refund and they said we might give you a credit for the rest amount that you can use it in the future but we will see , I really don’t like that option and I prefer to get the refund.

Good location on beautiful beach. Sun beds could be more luxurious. Should have more adults only areas. Toilets next to people’s restaurant needs artificial grass mats removing they are dangerous and not very hygienic. Staff lovely and helpful. Mermaid restaurant looks like a kitchen and needs some atmospheric lighting.

Gina Couples - 16/03/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Very nice hotel. Lovely beach. Wine selection on all inclusive basis was poor. Very bottom end Hardys brand. Main dining selection great. However it felt like a canteen due to the noise. You need to have a family dining area or a cut off time. Children running and screaming everywhere. We are in the fish restraint. Food was superb but again ambience ruined due to children running around and screaming.

Bad Staff, Good Property

Customer review rating 4.5/5

Udayvir Y. Couples - 14/03/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Was very excited and looking forward to spend our wedding anniversary here. But sadly, the check-in staff was extremely rude and not at all warm. I did not feel welcome there and, looking around, seemed to me that the check in staff were racially insensitive. Most of the reviews online share a similar experience regarding the staff. I would have to agree that sometimes certain staff members gave preference to other guests of certain nationality/ethnicity. Anyway, after having made the payment online prior to our arrival they flatly denied any payment being made. A simple "I'm so sorry, I don't have that information showing on my system. Let me please check this" would be better than what i was told- "No. No payment. You have not made any payment". The tone was rude and the words made me feel like a liar. I always assumed that being polite was a prerequisite for someone working in guest services. Being polite as a person also wouldn't be the worst thing. This was the start to a weekend and we haven't even reached our room. The price might be small for some or large for some. For me, my weekend started off wrong and would put anyone in a bad mood. We received no upgrade. Which is fine. The room was very nice. And they had decorates it nicely. The property is amazing. The beach is stunning. And the F&B staff were very nice. We had good quality meals and good quality drinks. Regarding the reservations for restaurants, as other reviews say, it made no sense. We were lucky to find the same check in staff at the front desk to rudely tell us that you can't reserve any place after 7pm. I thought it maybe very crowded. But after we reached the restaurant to just take a look. All but two tables were vacant. And we still had to reserve a table. But at least this staff was polite about it. The food and service was very professional at the restaurant. Our other meals were at the main restaurant and they were very good in quality. Would definitely recommend that. There were good performances every night. The bartenders were very entertaining and made stellar cocktails. There are definitely a lot of kids but luckily the beach area is divided between adults only and family only. There's also an adults only pool by the spa. Sadly we couldn't experience the Spa as it was totally booked at the time we wanted to go. All in all it was a great stay. But shameful that a couple of staff members very quickly broke the effort of the entire team to make this a unique guest experience.
