Flight: Flydubai flew, for the first time I was faced with the fact that even water on board had to be paid for.
Private transfer: fast and convenient, no need to wait for other tourists (TPG in Ras Al Khaimah provides only a private transfer)
And now about the hotel.
When checking in, there was a Russian-speaking girl Christina at the reception, who gave a map of the hotel, told what and where to be and answered all our questions. Check-in had to wait about an hour, but this is not critical, given that we arrived at the hotel before 12 am.
The room is great! Spacious and comfortable with a large bathroom. The room has a hair dryer, an iron with a board, and everything you need to make tea and coffee (as in all 5 star hotels in the UAE). We lived in a villa on the second line with a partial sea view.
Among the shortcomings, I can note soundproofing, if you come across noisy neighbors, then from time to time you will hear them or, for example, the TV in the next room is too loud (there were a couple of cases in a week, but perhaps this is due to the fact that our room was connected door with an adjacent one).
The beach is big and clean. There will be enough sunbeds for everyone (there are always free ones near the pool), BUT if you want to sunbathe in a certain place (not far from your villa, for example), you will have to borrow sunbeds before breakfast. We came to the beach at about 7.30 - 90% of the sunbeds are occupied, only vacationers can appear on them after 10 or 11 in the morning. I don’t understand why sunbeds are borrowed and not used...
Food: do not wake up hungry, but somehow everything is monotonous. Dishes are many and different, but day after day the same thing. For a week, apart from fish, there were no other seafood (shrimp, squid). There is also a choice of fruits, but for mangoes, grapes or bananas you have to go to the store.
One of the main advantages of this hotel: Al Hamra Mall (large shopping center) is a 15-minute walk away. We bought drinks, beer, wine, fruit, chocolate. Alcohol in the hotel is not cheap: a glass of wine 40 AED, in the store they took a bottle for 45; beer in the hotel 30 AED, in the store a package of 6 cans - 35.
We went to Manar Mall (taxi 40 - 45 AED) the products are a little cheaper, we bought an iPhone 7 in Carrefour. the price is a little cheaper than in other stores, in particular in Dubai Mall, in comparison with prices in Ukraine, we saved 280 USD.
During our vacation in the sea there were blue jellyfish (sting like nettles), except for two days there were few of them, it is quite possible to swim and not be stung. A couple of times I almost stepped on a small slope, so it's better to carefully look under your feet. The sea is clean and warm!
We were satisfied with the hotel, we will probably visit it again. Recommend to those who like a quiet and relaxing holiday.
