Resort is wonderful and we enjoyed the restaurants, the pool and the beach. Apartment itself could have been handed over and maintained better. Bidet was not functioning properly and guest toilet close to entrance didn't have towels. Master bedroom stand shower had faulty seal and floor slope was towards shower door causing water to accumulate. Little things that are annoying and not expected from a 5 star resort, especially when you are paying them a ton of $$. Also I'd booked a sea facing resort and they have me a resort view. Check-in was delayed by almost 30 min and we had to wait. However on last day due to one of my family members health issues, the manager was gracious enough to give us a late checkout. Barring some issues, overall stay was pleasant and relaxing. Next time will explore a different resort/ hotel in the Palm.

Love hate relationship. Not as news and facilities at apartment room is lacking example no tooth brush, tooth brush holder, 1 spoon in the entire kitchen, bath robe not replaced etc. though staff are friendly, the receptionists aren’t great and not willing to help with early check in in request. We had to wait 7 hours for room to be ready and it’s only after I had to raise my voice demanding for the room. We were tired after overnight flight and definitely not great experience stating in Sofitel.

I visited Dubai for the first time in July and stayed near the front of the Palm. This area is a lot more quieter so if you enjoy the peace and quiet this place is definitely for you. The resort is massive and has a lot to offer from restaurants, an excellent pool to an amazing view from the beach.
