Our stay at Zabeel Saray was nothing short of luxurious! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm smiles and exceptional service. The hotel's stunning Ottoman-inspired architecture and intricate detailing set the tone for a truly royal experience. The room was spacious, elegant, and perfectly maintained, with a breathtaking view of the Palm Jumeirah. The plush bedding and thoughtful amenities ensured our comfort throughout the stay. The bathroom, adorned with marble and gold accents, felt like a personal spa. Speaking of spas, the Talise Ottoman Spa was a highlight of our visit. The facilities were world-class, and our experience was utterly rejuvenating. Dining at Zabeel Saray was a culinary journey, with a wide array of restaurants offering diverse cuisines. Every meal was a delight, from the flavourful dishes to the exquisite presentation. A special highlight was Imperium Restaurant—truly a royal gem. Dining here felt like being transported to another era. The grandeur, elegance, and attention to detail made it feel as though we were kings and queens savouring a decadent feast. The ambiance was both opulent and inviting, with impeccable service and a menu featuring the finest international cuisine. Every bite was a masterpiece, and the entire experience was unforgettable. The infinity pool and private beach provided the perfect spots for relaxation, with attentive staff ensuring we had everything we needed. Our overall experience was absolutely fantastic. The service, attention to detail, and impeccable hospitality truly stood out. While we feel the half-board and full-board options could be enhanced by including drinks such as cocktails and alcoholic beverages, this did not take away from our overall enjoyment. Whether you’re seeking a romantic escape or a luxurious getaway, Zabeel Saray is a destination that exceeds expectations. We’re already looking forward to our next visit! Read less
