Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Guests consistently praise the Riu Dubai's beachfront location and the variety of pools, particularly those with slides that are a hit with children. The hotel offers spacious, modern junior suites, some with fantastic views from higher floors. Many appreciate the abundant buffet options; however, some found the selection somewhat repetitive, noting that the themed restaurants also offer buffet-style dining. With the Burj Khalifa and Dubai Mall only a 20-30 minute drive away, the location is convenient for exploring.

The hotel provided excellent beachfront access and several swimming pools. They cater to both adults and children. my son especially loved the aquapark slides (i was told it is closed on mondays). each night included entertaining shows for kids, it started at 8 pm (so cool!). drinks were fantastic by the adult pool.

the hotel is developing so it is next to an island. it is soon to be surrounded by other hotels and a shopping mall. at.

I enjoyed the beachfront location and the variety of pools. I liked there were pools suited for both children and adults. My son liked the slides in the aqua park a lot.

The room was smaller than I expected. It lacked an outdoor eating area and snack bar. The children was not able to use at least one swim up bar. I think that was a shame.

I found the staff very helpful and polite. My room was clean. A fully stocked fridge was also present. Water was replenished daily and the room was cleaned every day, great.

Checking in took an hour due to an issue with my kids' identification. Although electronic identification is common, the hotel required the original EID.
