The hotel lives up to its 3 stars. The ticket was only with breakfast, because after reading the reviews here, lunch and dinner were held in other places. I was a little surprised by the cleaning of the room - first there is a cleaner who cleans the room. picks up towels, and clean towels are delivered by another friend, after 16 hours. So there is a period of time. which you can get into by returning from the sea to your room and you will not find towels.
There are already a lot of reviews about the quality of breakfast here. everything matches.
Beach - we only went to Jumeirah Open Beach. they always got on the bus. (because they came to land at 8-40 for the 9 o'clock bus. at 8-45 all the seats are already occupied in it) they left the beach by taxi. whatever one may say, the price from the beach to the hotel is 17 dirhams. It is not very correct that the counter also works at traffic lights. the difference between taxis with green yellow red roofs was not seen. When landing, everyone turns on the counter with 3 dirhams. The sea is hot (33 degrees). The shower on the beach is scalding. it is impossible to stand under it. in the beach stall you can buy a drink and ice cream. A half liter bottle of water costs 1 dirham. a glass of Pepsi 2 dirhams.

Excursions - took 3 excursions on the beach near Elman - a sightseeing tour with a visit to the Burj Khalifa observation deck. We got an idea about the city and some information about the country. Some souvenirs when visiting the museum turned out to be exclusive. and then we didn’t see them in any souvenir shops anymore. Safari is so-so entertainment. swept across the sands on the Nissan Patrol. okay, I was sitting in the front seat, and I saw everything in front of me, and the couple that was in the third row, in my opinion, could only look out the side windows and not feel the extreme movement. The promised camel rides and boarding from the dunes remained promises. because when they brought me to the "village" they immediately sat me down at the table. snacks were given and the performances began. The performance consisted of a standard Arab dance of a Yula peasant with skirts and a Russian dancer - a belly dance.
Much more impressive was the third excursion - Crab Hunting. Excitement appeared even in my wife, who does not like to go fishing with me.
