    ...We were on the half board package and we were informed that we could eat here for either breakfast or dinner free of charge as it was included in our package... Although being a smaller resort, we were happy with the quiet calm restaurant that the hotel offered... Our waiters Atul and Vipin were very polite and informative of the menu... Atul was really considerate of my gluten and dairy free dietary requirements... He was quick to inform the chef and therefore prevented an accident from happening... Atul was good in suggesting a strong and tasteful cocktail for my partner, which encouraged another round of the same drink... Atul was thoughtful to have served the pil pil with gluten free bread for me... Although we didn’t read sweet potatoes on the menu, Atul adhered to our request and we enjoyed every bite of the sweet potato fries... Thank you so much Atul and Vipin...

Next I come to the staff in the restaurant, Malay, Chitra, Muneer and Rani - what can I say but exceptional!... Every day they ensured that I had certain foods made separately and freshly due to allergies and made sure that I never missed out because of them...

    ...Atul welcomed us in to the restaurant with his team, and you can hear the waves rolling in, right on the beach with beautifully cooked, barbecued meat and fish. Super food, ambience and service... We were staying at the Waldorf however walk along the beach to this restaurant as it is exceptional...

    Spent a week here after transferring from another resort. Very nice secluded villa layout with own pool and cabana etc... Beach is very spacious and was not busy at all so we had choice of cabanas or loungers... Beach staff were excellent providing towels and iced water etc... We had lunch inbour villa, room service was excellent... Had dinner in either beach bbq or main restaurant...

    ...A private villa, with ocean view, a lovely centralized cabana which is great to arrange private dining experiences all at the comfort of your own villa. Beautiful designed private pool and bath tub... Definitely bring some bath bombs and foam along... If you can, order some floating candles which set a very romantic mood in the night... As well with private terrace that has view over the ocean and beach... Absolutely stunning tropical oasis in UAE!...

    ...The time there was gorgeous and unfortunately passed much too fast! Especially the calm and privacy in our tented villa and the associated private pool we enjoyed very much... The beach with the cabanas and the sea were beautiful!... We were always addressed by name and every wish was read from our eyes!... We had booked half board and the food was both morning and evening of very good quality... A big thank you to the kitchen, who pampered us every night with great food and on our last evening there was even a great seafood platter... We would love to come back anytime - for us so far the most beautiful hotel in the UAE... Many thanks to the entire hotel team for our great stay!...

If you are thinking about booking this hotel - don't think just BOOK you will not be disappointed, you will in fact be enchanted. We have stayed here for 15 night and we are in the hospitality industry so we are really tough customers to please when we are on our own leave. We have travelled all over the world but we can honestly say that the staff both here and their sister hotel are some of the best in the business and it is they who make your holiday dreams come true. They are fun, charming and their command of the English language is first class. Every single member of staff (and I just name a few or this review would go in for years) but Pyira, Sukvir, Boaz and Ramesh from house keeping who looked after us and our villa so beautifully to Amra (Head of F&B) and his wonderful team of chefs and waiters/waitresses who always anticipated every desire that we might wish for (even down to having our chosen tea and coffee waiting on "our" table every morning together with the newspaper that they knew we like to read, through to the lovely chaps who drive the buggies who even on day 2 knew our names and knew that we liked to go about by bikes so they always made sure that "our" bikes were in place and ready for us, the gardeners who keep the grounds looking like a tropical paradise, the front of house team and last but not least to John, Head Of Operations, who is the very essence of what high end hospitality is about and this is so very evident in the huge team that he runs here and his love, energy and enthusiasm for ensuring that guests have the very best possible experience is amplified down to every level. It is with the hugest sadness that we leave here but we will be back, we feel that this is our 2nd home. Thank you to one and all who made this holiday truly the break that we were much in need of. It of course goes without saying that the food is amazing, the villas are lovely and could be in any tropical country with their lush exotic gardens, the sea is warm and it is very easy to get too from both within the UAE but also Europe (much easier than say the Maldives)

If you are looking for somewhere to stay similar to the Maldives but don’t fancy the long flight then this is the place for you. Our stay was exceptional. Upon arriving I was a bit dubious because of the building works taking place outside the resort however, once you are in the resort you would never know that are taking place. Apparently a majority of the works should be finished by December but, please don’t let this put you off. The Villas are amazing and very private with your own pool and plenty of places outside to sun bathe. Our room was kept clean by the lovely Winnie, Arul and Krishna, thank you for this. We were here celebrating a milestone birthday and received a birthday cake and message on the bed which was a lovely touch. We were half board and there was plenty of choice. The evening menu food was very good and great choices. All the staff at the hotel were outstanding. I would especially like to give a shout out to the beautiful Rani and Mario. I’m not into birds but there were some beautiful birds which visited our Villa. I didn’t want to leave and I would stay at this hotel again and again. Thank you RC for making our experience so special.

We travelled here from the UK which was organised for us by the Indian Ocean specialists Angelfish Travel. Unusually for the UAE, this is a hidden gem of a 5 star boutique resort. Despite the massive building site leading up to the small 'advance party' Reception, the resort itself is in stark contrast. The tent-style villas are magnificent, with every luxury you would expect and a few you wouldn't, like the flat screen TV which emerges at the touch of a button from a large chest in the middle of the room and can be swivelled through 180 degrees to face either the large seating area or the bed, which is also wonderfully comfortable with high thread count bedding! In the garden you have a large bath with separate shower, two lounger areas - one in sun, the other in shade - plus a plunge pool for cooling off. There are two restaurants, one for beach barbecues and the main one for all day dining. The beach is so big you're never aware of anyone on it, and the staff are without exception some of the best trained and friendliest we have encountered in the UAE. The sea is like a warm bath, the sun shines every day, making this resort one of the nicest we have ever found and a welcome break from the large pleasure palaces in the big cities. Total relaxation guaranteed.

The four nights we stayed here must be described as: PERFECT SERVICE in a beautiful setting! The villas are very nice, the setting is besutiful but what really blew our mind was the level of service and the friendliness. Amr at the shorehouse and his team are doing a phenominal job and the food is exceptional. Everybody at the resort is laughing and is superfriwndly. Our wishes were literarly read from our eyes… our meal preferences always remembered… this is what you wish for at a 5 star resort… It was up to now never met like this! Thank you very much for thos experience! Special worth mentioning: if your room service maid greets you with all the names you definetly feel special!! Thank you Winnie!!

The resort is tucked away from reception and a short buggy ride with super Mario soon dropped us at our villa. Private and spacious with own pool plenty of garden and a lovely well equipped villa. The beach was just at bottom of our private garden, the sand and sea clean and warm as a bath. Life guards at the ready with iced water with lovely sun beds, such likeable guys. The resort with amazing staff at the restaurants made us very welcome, everyone of them superb. Special thanks to the best looking Indian dude Bibek, the attentive Sailek, Winnie from house keeping and Amr for keeping them in check. Great stay made pleasurable by these characters and everyone involved. Thanks Sailek for the cake. Paul & Sally R

We had a fabulous time. A great experience all round, highly recommended. Understated luxury for a relaxing time by the beach. The villas are superbly appointed, the food, drinks and service are faultless. All staff were friendly, attentive and very professional. A special thanks to our housekeeper Sukhvir. 5*++

My wife and I wanted to get away from the daily stress and read about this little emirate, our choice rapidly pointing at the Ritz Carlton. Dubai and the UAE stand for sky lines yet we wanted an intimate, boutique experience. Both the desert and beach resorts are truly wonderful yet it is the people that made all the difference, truly pampering us, greating us genuinely and making all our wishes come true - not to speak of the incredible food made to our very liking. Merely 90 minutes away from busy Dubai, we can only warmly recommend.

Excellent We had a fantastic week, every single member of staff were fabulous, always smiling. The beach is beautiful, it reminded me of Barbados 35yrs ago before it was developed. Silky soft and the sea was clear and warm. The room was a perfect size, very comfortable beds and right on the beach with a private pool. The only problem I have is that we are leaving. 10 out of 10 would definitely recommend. Well done to everyone at the hotel.

We spent two nights in August at this property. It was an incredible two nights and we didn’t want to leave. We stayed in a pool villa, which was perfect in every way. Our children loved the pool and spent all day in it. The villas have great privacy, so you can enjoy the whole villa without worrying. Food was delicious. The staff in the restaurant were so kind and helpful. Most of all, the manager, Amr, was incredibly hospitable. He made sure that we had everything we needed, made sure our children got whatever food they wanted, and ensured we were always comfortable. All in all, this property is definitely somewhere we would visit again. We loved it.
