A gem of a hotel, the spectacular Ritz-Carlton, Dubai has a wealth of amenities. Guests can enjoy a total of six swimming pools, including two exclusively for children (happily set in the shade!) and one solely for adults. There’s a choice of rooms and suites, including Club rooms with access to the Club Lounge with benefits such as premium alcohol served from 12:00pm-10:00pm and five food presentations! The hotel's Italian restaurant Splendido is something of a local legend. But don't miss Amaseena, their magical tented Bedouin village set right beside the sea, serving traditional regional specialities that can be enjoyed whilst listening to the haunting background strains of the oud and the tabla. As all first-class hotels in Dubai do, this hotel overlooks its own stretch of private beach, where pristine white sands are lapped gently by azure waters. A wonderful place to relax, topping up your tan perhaps, indulging in a variety of water sports or simply reading that book you’ve been wanting to for ages now! There are plenty of shaded areas too, private nooks to call your own, and unbeatable service from the La Baie Lounge. All of this, plus an indulgent spa, exciting kids club and a great location, ensures a holiday you’ll remember forever!

Visited Ritz Carlton in Jan 2024 with family. Then only decided to visit again soon. Here comes December and we are again at Ritz Carlton. When I last came here, I thought the experience is difficult to beat, but it took Ritz Carlton to beat themselves. The experience is beyond words. Be it the team (Albert and team at lounge or The Caravan team from Yaninda Syam Sanjay Raju everyone, The Blue Jade team, The Spa the beach swimming to entrance assistance team.) services ambience everything was amazing.
Special mention for Chef Surendra at Lounge, be it the extraordinary items to amazing taste to unbelievable effort in going out of the way for our preferred dishes.
It’s not that when you come to Dubai you should visit Ritz Carlton, in fact for experiecing Ritz Carlton you will have to visit Dubai. Twice in one year and may be more visits to come.
(Names put are the just i remembered but every member of this team is special.

Irwan and the team were super attentive and friendly. Well worth a visit. Beds are top notch, facilities excellent and the food and drinks reasonably priced. The water is clear and warm. Beach not quite white sand, but getting there! What a way to spend mid December.
Amazing brunch with sea view

Joined London Social Brunch on the weekend. Food is amazing - both quality and variety, drinks keep flowing without ask, and overall service is very attentive. Neeraj is simply the best oyster ambassador, and Raju is your go to drinks master.
Brunch at Caravan

Excellent brunch at Caravan. Neeraj the oyster man made our day!!
Decent value for 550 and had all you need in terms of the spread. Lots of staff keeping drinks filled-up. Raju did great there.
Would go again. Also good for family with a lawn for kids.
Excellent relaxing stay

Lovely hotel on the beach. Service was excellent from the moment you arrive. Wasem and Saif were very helpful when I was in need of directions or transportation.
Beach was fantastic, water was very pleasant to swim.
I would definitely like to visit again.
