Bab Al Shams Desert Resort And Spa - Dubaj

The peace of being in the middle of nowhere and being forced to relax with 5 star service all around me

The levels of food and beverage service at the pool side was very slow.

Pool and Alhadherah

Pools are great, breakfast is excellent, children (5 and 7) loved kids club

If you serve excellent breakfast, why with processed organge juice? Buffet at desert restaurant was mediocre. Some of the leisures are a bit shabby (e.g. midget golf is just a few holes in the grass)

The ambience, setting, friendly staff and beautiful location all added to the wonderful experience we had at this resort, highly recommended

location is great, staff is always very kind and structure is really impressive, perfect solution for a romantic week end.

a bit too expensive, but at the end ambience is so nice that you forget abt money you are spending.....

If there's one good thing about Jumeirah properties it is that you know you'll get at least a certain standard/facilities - trustworthy (like Hilton) but nothing inspired or unique - a safe bet if ever in doubt.

The lack of inspiration and uniqueness; really for these prices via a vis the location and the marketing there really should be some 'wow' factor about the place and sadly it gets overlooked in favor of getting the last batch of tourists out in time for the new credit-card toting hoards to arrive. Cold towels on arrival and a stuffed date proffered does not make an exceptional hotel and like many other guests, we do see this...A fair place, but don't expect too much.

People are very kind and friedly, service was great. It was quite far from Dubai downtown, but I was quite satisfied.

They have amazing activities and shows at night.

Spa facility should be better

If you are looking for a place to completely unwind and get away from it all, then this is the ideal Dubai hotel. The layout and decor at Bab Al Shams are absolutely stunning and even though it is slap bang in the middle of the desert, there is plenty to do so you won't be bored.

Nice rooms, lovely bath, nice pool area, fantastic Indian restaurant.

Room was 90mins late due to cleaning delays on arrival and subsequent complaint has not been responded to.

The overall hotel was beautiful. The service was excellent and I really enjoyed the Bab Al Shams experience.

the location. it was very peaceful, a nice escape from dubai

Evening ambiance and lighting. Indian restaurant was excellent.

Rooms are not comfortable and luxurious enough. Room rate is high.

The staff there was truly outstanding and made my birthday weekend a memorable one. However, went there at the onset of summer and the sun was blazing hot!!! More of a winter resort, would not advise visiting during the summer months.

Very pricey...on everything: the room, food, facilities. I think lowering prices, especially during summer months would be advisable.

The big pool should have been heated.the water was too cold!
