This was our first trip to the UAE and our last.
We had an evening flight and we arrived in the Emirates at night. I really liked the paperwork. They have a separate counter, there is no huge queue if the passengers are with children. So it went by very quickly. True, then they waited a long time for the car. When the bus finally came, we finally took off. They all really fly there at 120-130 km / h and more. It took about 2-2.5 hours to get to the hotel. Almost crashed a couple of times. Later, there are fates without lighting and winding roads, but they do not slow down - it was creepy.
We arrived at the hotel at about 2 am, settled quickly, in a common building on the 4th floor, the view is beautiful. Meat and vegetable cuts were prepared from the road very opportunely. They refused the minibar and took only $100 as a deposit. instead of 200 dollars.
True bought a ticket for 2vz. and reb. , the bed is not prepared for the child. They brought us a folding bed.

Meals included breakfast, lunch, dinner. If with a child, then something is needed. There were vacationers who had breakfast and dinner, so they did not know how to feed the children - everything is expensive in restaurants. They write there is a children's kitchen, so we saw it after 4 days and then 1 time for dinner. There were french fries and deep fried cutlets. Breakfasts are the same type, but at lunch and dinner you can come off.
It is better to buy ice cream and water across the road at a gas station, where it is 2 times cheaper. You can go to the Lu-lu supermarket, there are 1 floor products, 2 things. Dressed the children a little.
The beach is good. True, there were oil emissions - they stained the swimsuit, but they gave a rag with oil and took it out. But the little one swam in the pool all the time, she liked eating there more.
It gets dark early, around 17.00. And there is nowhere to go for a walk, except for the gas station, but if only around the territory.
We were on an excursion to Dubai (although everything is very fast, we didn’t have free time) and the Atlantis water park (everything is super - breathtaking). Of course again, the road there is very tiring for 2-2.5 hours and back.
8 days flew by very quickly, I did not want to leave. Bought, got drunk.
But the trip home spoils everything. We had an overnight flight. The bus came for us at 2 am. There were many tourists and another bus was sent. Again same night-speed. These unfortunate drivers about an hour later, when everyone was a little prikemar, began to compete among themselves, who is faster. And of course, from such a race, our driver loses control on the turn and we fly off the road and fly into a ditch. When we woke up, thank God everyone was alive - all the suitcases that just lay behind the back seats fell on us. Many have been hurt. The children are all scared. The police arrived, took a long time to figure it out, a little later the ambulance. Provided superficial assistance. While they contacted the hotel, while they sent a new bus, it took a very long time and this was all after the shock. The truth is now all ruled with a separate compartment for luggage and seat belts. No, so right away.
Upon arrival in Kyiv, they made a complaint, it was already mid-January, but there is still no answer. So the experience leaves much to be desired.
