“Just for beach lovers”

Reviewed 18 April 2013

A spontaneous decision to check in to a hotel near my office proved to be a bit pricey but my children loved the beach and the play area beside the pool. Very close to The Emirates Palace Hotel and the architecture beauty Etihad Towers. Havent tried the restaurants but its well decorated, neat and service was great.
