Retreat the Palm Dubai: A Pleasant Stay with Some Service Gaps

TripAdvisor rating 4.0/5

DominikS3317 Solo travel - TripAdvisor review

Reception/Concierge/Staff: 3/5 Points The check-in process could have been smoother, as Wi-Fi details were not provided, and full-board guests arriving late were only offered room service at an additional cost. My room had a street view, with the option to upgrade to a beachside room at extra charge. Despite booking through Booking.com with a 20% discount on food, this was not communicated, leading to regular charges. Initially, I was informed smoking was prohibited on the balcony but later told it was allowed on second-floor rooms, where I was subsequently moved. While the staff is generally courteous, poolside service could be friendlier, and beach service is limited to the area near the bar. There were issues with special requests, such as a neck pillow, which required extended conversations to resolve. Food and Beverage: 3/5 Points The breakfast buffet offers a wide variety, including healthy options, although the pancakes were not fresh. Lunch and dinner options were somewhat limited. Water service during meals was inconsistent, with glasses sporadically refilled rather than providing bottled water. The buffet offered varied dishes daily, and the live kitchen added a nice touch. Culinary highlights included the prawn mango avocado salad and peach almond crumble. The Turkish restaurant was a standout, featuring live music and authentic dishes. Rooms/Housekeeping: 4/5 Points The deluxe room was spacious, with a quiet air conditioning system. After a minor issue adjusting the temperature, everything was comfortable. Housekeeping was responsive, immediately offering to clean the room after I accidentally left the “do not disturb” sign on all day. However, on another day, they failed to clean my room during my extended absence, which was disappointing. The balcony was also neglected, as the ashtray was never emptied. Hotel Facilities/Entertainment: 5/5 Points The hotel is impeccably clean and well-maintained. There are morning pool activities with an animator, and the lifts are always quick. The wellness area, though small, was satisfactory, and the service was attentive, with staff offering water while I was in the jacuzzi. This is a relaxation-focused hotel, so I did not expect significant entertainment. Beach/Pool Area: 3/5 Points The pool area offers various options for relaxation, from regular sunbeds to water-based loungers, which was excellent. The rule against reserving loungers was strictly enforced, ensuring fairness. However, the beach’s swimming area was limited, and the sea floor was occasionally unclean, giving the impression that my feet were cut. Smoking areas around the pool and beach were restricted, which wasn’t made clear initially. The background music by the pool contributed to a calm atmosphere, except when the neighboring hotel hosted noisy parties. Conclusion The Retreat the Palm Dubai offers a solid experience with clean facilities, friendly staff, and decent food. However, several service issues and inconsistencies, particularly with housekeeping and dining, prevent it from reaching its full potential. For those seeking a peaceful getaway, it’s a good option, but improvements in service would elevate the overall experience. Overall Rating: 3.6/5 Points

Just returned from this magnificent hotel and what can I say. From drop off at hotel met by the most amazing guys who opened taxi doors for my husband and myself took our luggage and escorted us into reception. Check in very smooth and efficient by a lovely guy Ahmed who explained everything about hotel to us. As we had arrived early in morning room was not quite ready so we had an amazing breakfast in hotel. Cannot fault this hotel at all in any way amazing staff everywhere, food fabulous, pool and beach fabulous. Food and drink at poolside bar amazing with the loveliest of staff. Would not hesitate to go back to this hotel and would highly recommend this hotel to anyone thinking of going to Dubai.
