Bin Majid Acacia Hotel and Apartments is located in Ras Al Khaimah and is part of Bin Majid Hotels & Resorts. The hotel, one might say, is not in the city itself, but on its outskirts, in an industrial zone. Passports were taken away upon check-in and issued after payment of a hotel fee of 15 dirhams per room. You can pay by card.
The hotel lives up to its stars. The rooms are clean, cleaned every day, towels are also changed every day. Of the amenities: daily bottles of water, tea and coffee (of course, instant), electric kettle, hairdryer, safe, air conditioning, TV, WiFi. Bathrobes are provided upon request. Of the troubles, this is the door to the next room, respectively, with absolute audibility. A relative nuisance is the view from the window.
Buffet (a lot of things, you can’t list everything - you won’t stay hungry: fruits, yogurts, herbs, jams, freshly prepared scrambled eggs, sausages, eggs, muffins, coffee, milk, juices, olives, etc.
The menu is extensive but repeats every day.
Bus to the beach (beach at another hotel, which, like our hotel, is part of the Bin Majid Hotels & Resorts system). The bus is small, seats 25, not the first freshness. Takes, as indicated everywhere, only sedentary. If there are not enough seats, then the bus returns (15-20 minutes) and picks up the rest. Bus on schedule. Take a pass to go to the beach (they check and pick it up at the entrance of the beach) and a ticket for a towel (they give out a towel on the beach itself and return the ticket after returning the towel) to the reception. I didn’t try to pass without a pass, but without a coupon for a towel, you can get a towel by persuading a smiling worker. On the beach there are sunbeds, there is a pool, there are also sunbeds. Inside the pool there is a bar - they pour it to other hotels that have all-inclusive. But they don’t look too closely and you can treat something for free. There is a small water center with slides. There are water activities such as "bananas", scooters and the like.
There is an animator on the beach, moreover, Russian-speaking and Russians on the beach are the overwhelming majority.
Back by taxi (there are cars at the exit from the beach) - 17 dirhams.
On the overpass across the road, the store is 300 steps away, but the approach to the overpass is on the sand. The store is sloppy, there are almost no prices for every purchase, you have to run to the checkout and look at the price. There is a Pakistani cafe nearby. Another store on the other side of the hotel is 800 steps away.
The nearest large store Al Hamra Mall (Al Hamra Mall), by taxi 12 dirhams. Two floors, like an ordinary mall - boutiques, food, currency exchange, ATM, Spinneys store.
The remoteness of the hotel from the beach is quite conditional. The only thing that is inconvenient is that if you come once, then the second time, for example, after dinner, you no longer want to go there.
Unfortunately, I can't say anything about the pool. It is indicated that in the evening it is closed, and in the daytime it was "not convenient" to go there.
Downstairs there is a lot of things to eat, and shop, and relax!
Loved the gym! Lots of equipment and brand new! Water and towels available! Don't forget sportswear and shoes!
Bath is a bit run down. Not in the sense of cleanliness and order, but in the sense of readiness. The temperature is low (65) and it is probably maintained not by the service personnel, but by the customers. You have to turn on the heating yourself and wait for it to warm up. The fireplace is not laid with stones and bare heating elements stick out. There is also a watering can and from it directly on the heating elements of the "well-wishers" they pour water. It becomes warmer due to evaporation and, as a result, it becomes not dry but humid.
The attendants are lazy (they do not show initiative), but they are executive.
After the bath, they offer hot tea - tasty and pleasant, although from bags.
Bottom line: the hotel is not very suitable for a beach and recreational holiday. In the layout that we had, the hotel is comfortable and you can comfortably spend time in it. From the wishes I would like a round-the-clock pool!
