The main thing! This is a vacation exclusively for people who are tired of the bustle of the metropolis / couples who do not like parties and fuss, a family vacation for couples with small children!
Location. Away from everything civilized. If before that you rested in Dibai, it will seem to you that you are in another country! Next to another hotel, and then the desert, mountains and the road! So you can immediately forget about the evening promenade after dinner. In the morning you can walk along the seashore for 20 minutes in one direction or the other (there is a dead end)
Sea. Tip - You can immediately hide expensive swimwear away in a suitcase! There are always oil grains on the sand in the sea and on the shore! ! True, they are diligently trying to collect them, but it is simply impossible not to get dirty !! ! So put on a cheaper swimsuit and enjoy! On the first day, we did not pay attention to these grains - as a result, the legs were like geese's paws (only black). They wiped their feet with napkins (there are napkins everywhere for rubbing oil soaked in something like kerosene)!

About the rooms - everything is super! Everything is worthy of 5+!
About food. For those who had previously rested on the Dubai Jumeirah, very, very weakly! I will explain why. The buffet is presented, as a rule, by 3 cuisines - Thai, Indian and Arabic. The food is quite spicy. Who loves seafood in abundance (lobster crabs, etc. ) then they are served in abundance 2 times a week Thursday and Friday when the Arabs have a weekend and they come to the hotel) Every day only small shrimps.
For meat lovers, you won’t stay hungry !! ! (there are no frills like milk lamb, but there is enough beef and chicken steamed and fried)
In general, a restaurant where food is served according to the all-inclusive system looks like a dining room familiar to us from Soviet times. Noisy and busy!
There are no fries at all.
Fruits only for breakfast (delicious papaya, pineapples, peaches, watermelons... a lot of everything !!!! ) For dinner, there are almost no fruits! Only fruit salads are served (mix of fresh and canned fruit)
Sweet table-conditional! You will not see stunning oriental sweets and pouring chocolate from the fountain! Some desserts in cups like our jelly.
At the entrance to the restaurant, they will ask for your room number and write it down / If you go twice, for example, for breakfast, they will write you down and then count you on the bill that you had breakfast twice : )
There is an Indian restaurant nearby. Kitchen for an amateur!
On the top floor there is a restaurant bar. There is no kitchen, only drinks. In the evenings there is belly dancing.
Entertainment.
1. Walk along the sea
2. Tennis court
3. Unusually for the Emirates, but the hotel has animators who try very hard to somehow entertain guests! They even put on some concerts. But until 22.00 then CLEAR!! ! Peace and quiet!
4. Night club on Fridays in a nearby hotel. Works from 12 at night. Gay couples from all over the emirates come there on Friday. A fun sight. But everything is good!!!
5. Trip from the hotel to the capital of Fujairah. This is a special story.

The bus from the hotel brings to Fujairah to a local supermarket like our Ramstore (deli downstairs, on the 2nd floor pots, dishes, T-shirts, towels, flip flops, etc. , all of Indian super cheap quality) Deli-nothing - bought a bunch of branded sweets type of dates in chocolate. Yet
not usually that we were given all the sweets to try. We tried 20 kinds! It was inconvenient to refuse : ) Forget about other purchases!
After 2 hours the bus will take you back to the hotel.
Skyscrapers and luminous buildings are not there. So spend 2 hours in the supermarket and back!
6. You can go to Dubai. Whoever is in the Emirates for the first time may be interested. Spend the whole day. The sick part of the time is droga. Drive 2 hours one way (if you don't get into Dubai traffic jams).
It seems everything. I would be glad if my review was helpful.
