We stayed in this hotel for 10 days. Everything was brilliant! The food is fresh, the diet is varied. The room is cleaned every day, everything is good. Our cleaning lady Sarah is very friendly and nice. Thank you very much!
The hotel is very cool, ideal for families with children.
The room was 50 sq.m., two adults lived, children 2 years old, 5 years old and 9. The baby was given a cot. The bathroom has both a shower and a bathtub. There was enough room for everyone. Barely a sofa and an armchair with a coffee table. Minibar, soda, chips, sometimes chocolates, refilled every day, free.
Cleaning every day, we didn't even take a tip.
The territory is large, you can walk somewhere, the beach is sandy, with shells. It is better to swim from the villa's side (fish restaurant).
Meals: ultra all inclusive, decent alcoholic drinks. The buffet is normal, varied. For dinner, it is better to sign up at restaurants in Alaska, my husband came to the queue at 8 a.m., he was the first. And there was always a restaurant to choose from. I recommend Italian, Toro Loco is a type of steakhouse, fish (salt) - by the way, there is fish in the window, which is paid separately, but there are many snacks on the menu and fish too. The restaurants are very tasty.
Plus, you can go to meat and fish for lunch, fish usually had hot dogs and guacamole, meat burgers, wings, pasta. There is alcohol and a children's menu everywhere.
Pools: children's pools with slides, children's pools with a fountain, heated. There are also pools purely for adults. And a large central saltwater pool.
Service for 5+.
Everyone is very polite, smiling, they fulfill any request.
Children's animation: there is a kids' club, it has its own program, our cooking came in, they prepared cupcakes, shawarma, sushi, pizza. In the evenings, there is always a children's disco on stage, then a children's show, clowns, magic tricks, acrobats, or dressed in Madagascar costumes.
Nice hotel. Large, beautiful, well-maintained territory. The construction site does not interfere. The beaches are good, the entrance to the water is wonderful. The staff is friendly, but if you don't speak English, you won't be able to do everything. Wild boars by the pool are free, but you need to book. A la carte restaurants: after the reviews, we signed up for Turkish, 5 people left hungry. Everything is sharp and strange. Italian, new, excellent. Sparkling wine is not served for breakfast, red fish is too salty. And in general, there are few fish and seafood. The rooms are comfortable, bathrobes, slippers, a bed, etc. - all of good quality. Evening shows are a disappointment. One team in a new outfit every evening. That's it! Bartenders from Bangladesh and Malaysia do not know how to make cocktails. There are no others there. The hotel is on "4". We expected more from Rixos
The hotel is great
The staff is very friendly, everyone is trying very hard (there is a Russian-speaking guy, we talked with him mostly, thanks to him)
The rooms are spacious (we had a premium room with a sea view)
We had both a shower and a bathtub
The only drawback: pigeons on the balcony and the lack of dryers on the balcony
In the bathroom, you can pull 1 string and hang something, but it dries very badly
It has to be hung on chairs on the balcony, which is not very convenient
We woke up to the sound of birds singing, it was very pleasant
Heavy fog in the morning
The food is excellent, it may not seem like such a big choice, but there are a lot of vegetables, fruits, cheeses, sausages, olives, etc
Grilled meat, fish, tuna fillets
Classic breakfasts (eggs of all kinds, pancakes every morning (huge), pancakes, waffles
If someone's children eat only nuggets, French fries and pasta, then be prepared to look for an alternative (pasta was on the children's table, and French fries only a couple of times, there were no nuggets at all - and I was happy as a parent, otherwise I would not be forced to eat anything else)
There were all sorts of mini burgers for children and for adults too
A couple of times there were Turkish pide with potatoes and cheese
Excellent juices (apple, mango, orange, pineapple)
Coffee, tea and other drinks are brought by the waiter (they are all English-speaking)
Beautiful dishes in the restaurant
There is ice cream in the restaurant, you can take balls in a plate or a waffle cone for dessert
There is only fruit ice around the pool
Alcohol is normal, good
Cocktails were not always successful, but there were also good ones
The beach is divided into 2 parts
One is closed by breakwaters, the water is quieter there
If you go to another part, then there is a more open part of the sea and small waves, we went there
The sea is the warmest
The beach itself is clean sand, small shells are slightly present
No living creatures were noticed in the water
There are a lot of sun beds, you can always find a place
Since the territory is large, you can always find some privacy
No one is lying on top of each other
You can pull back the sun beds on the beach a little if necessary
Towels on the sun beds around the pools are already laid out, if you leave, then do not forget to throw the towels into the basket so that it is clear that the sun beds are free (well, or the employee will clean them after a while)
On the beach, take the towels from the house themselves, without any cards
There are a lot of Russian-speaking tourists in the hotel, but the only drawback is that few people follow the rules that they do not wear swimsuits in the elevator / lobby (there are ads about this), many do not care, they walk as they want, including children in swimsuits in the restaurant
It's sad, I think you need to show respect and follow simple rules
Construction on the territory does not interfere at all
Rescuers are very vigilant everywhere, both at the pool and at sea
In general, I recommend the hotel
We visited this hotel, and it fully met our expectations! By all criteria, 10 out of 10.
• Service – the staff is incredibly polite, attentive and always ready to help. From the reception meeting to the restaurant service, everything is top–notch.
• Staff – friendly and professional staff who make your stay comfortable and unforgettable. I really liked how quickly any issues are resolved.
• The beach is spacious, clean, with a convenient entrance to the water. There are enough sun beds for everyone, the sea is clear, and the atmosphere is simply heavenly.
• Vacation is an ideal place for both family vacations and romantic trips. Great restaurants, bars, animation – it won't be boring!
• The territory is well maintained, green, with beautiful pools and recreation areas. Everything looks very stylish and thoughtful.
• It's a real paradise for children! Children's pools, play areas, a mini club with professional animators – the children are delighted!
• Cleanliness – the rooms are cleaned perfectly, public areas are always kept clean. Everything is shiny and well maintained.
We had a rest from 30.12-8.01.25
The experience is great! This is the 3rd Rixos we've been to, and I'll say it's the best. It is very suitable for family holidays. Clean, tidy, cozy. There are many Russian-speaking guests and staff.
The staff is very friendly, the experience is a beehive full of work)
The restaurants and food are excellent, everything is inclusive (which is rare for the Emirates)
We played beach volleyball, the sports program for adults is the same. There is a spa, you can warm up (although there is a renovation, and it is not as big as in the Turkish Rixos, but I think they are redoing it) Ala restaurants are available by appointment the day before the visit. We were in Turkish, I really liked it (there 's a Turkish guy with a mustache who is very attentive . And the musician plays the duduka very well)
A special joy for me is the kids' club! The animators are attentive and positive. The kids are thrilled. The children's program is rich, from morning to the end of the day there is an interactive children's show and a disco-it's so touching to watch the kids dancing. She left her daughter like in kindergarten and was calm. My daughter was eager to go there)) master classes, games, and life-size dolls daily.
The beach is nice, the pools are clean, the rooms are spacious with wonderful views.
I recommend you to visit!
Delicious, beautiful, gorgeous beach, 25 minutes from Ras Al Khaimah airport. The food in all restaurants is excellent!
There are times for the renovation of the hotel, when everything is finished, I think the price will fly up. Therefore, use it while the price tag on the Rixos is adequate.
Special thanks to the team!
The animators Tatiana, Oliveira and Mahmoud are great.
Morisha's waiter at the restaurant does his job very well.
The pool assistant named Prem is just gold!
If you don't look for cons, but enjoy, then the hotel is super!
The Rixos Al Mairid Ras Al Khaimah 5* Hotel has left me with the most vivid and positive impressions! This is a place where every detail is thought out to the smallest detail so that guests feel comfortable and enjoy their stay 100%.
I'll start with the food — it's a real gastronomic paradise! A huge range of dishes for every taste: from delicious meat and fish delicacies to fresh vegetables and fruits. Sweets and desserts are a separate story, their variety is simply amazing. You can always find an empty seat in the restaurant, even during peak hours, which is very convenient.
The rooms are spacious, clean and cozy, everything is thought out for a comfortable stay. The hotel staff deserves special thanks — they are always friendly, polite and ready to help in any situation.
The beach is a separate pride of the hotel! Wide, clean, with soft sand and crystal clear water. There is a bar by the pool and on the beach with a wide selection of alcoholic cocktails, and the vitamin bar offers fresh juices, fruits and ice cream.
Ideal conditions are created here for families with children: a children's pool, playgrounds and a special children's table in the restaurant. The animation is at the highest level — for both adults and children! Every day is full of activities: exercise, dancing, yoga, volleyball and much more. You definitely won't be bored!
I definitely recommend Rixos Al Mairid Ras Al Khaimah 5* to anyone who is looking for the perfect place to relax. This is a hotel where you want to come back again and again! Thank you for an unforgettable vacation! 🌴✨
I had a great vacation in January 2025!
I'm on vacation in the UAE for the 4th time, but this hotel hooked me the most!
A huge green area. There are 3 excellent beaches and many shallow and deep heated and saltwater pools. The bars on site are amazing, the booze is great, Jack Denels, the pet label, etc. Beer ephesus, dietary supplements, stela, staropramen. All kinds of wines, vodka, rums, juices, cola, etc. Snacks . The food was excellent , and there was no monotony on Fridays , as there was everywhere else crab day . Entertainment from 6 p.m. to 23:00 is excellent. There are many Russian speakers. Room cleaning is done every day, but we left in the morning and came to the room at night to sleep. Everything is great, I will be able to come again. I almost forgot the sea was about 18-20 degrees, but coming from the north with frost, it seems warm, so we swam in the sea for days
Super hotel, 5+ territory, there are 3 or 4 beaches, like coves, one fenced with ramps, large, beautiful. The hotel is very nice, big, green, with a history. The staff is friendly, they solve all problems, they try their best. There are Russian speakers. The food is delicious. And oysters and steaks, you won't stay hungry. A separate story is the sports direction. How great they came up with a bar with freshly squeezed and juices on the beach + they will also cut exotic fruits for you there (Dragon, lychee, passion fruit, everything that is poorly cut)
Even if you don't like sports, you will love them, professionals with a gentle but effective approach.
Kids club-5+, entertain well, draw, dance, cook
Teen club - consoles for every taste, billiards, table football / hockey. Just board games.
If you're thinking about going or not... definitely go. It's nice here. And most importantly, everyone is with children and everyone understands everything-)
The service is excellent, all the staff is of a high level, they usually always come up to the restaurant and ask us what we would like to order. Everything is clean, tidy, the tables are set.The guys are all cool at the beach cafe, they ate there every day, why not go to the main restaurant, the coffee is the most delicious on the beach too, the cappuccino is creamy! Everything is clean , the territory is constantly being cleaned , the hotel is being renovated, the only drawback is the old hotel stock in the rooms, but everything has been diligently repaired as much as possible. The food is delicious everywhere! The beach is huge and cool.
I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel! A gorgeous large beautiful territory (+ they are currently engaged in improving and updating plants on the territory, apparently after the previous owners), a clean beach with a wide coastline, breakfasts, lunches and dinners are beyond praise. I am glad that their time interval is very long, which is significantly noticeable compared to other hotels, due to this there is no jostling in the restaurant) we lived in a cozy beautiful villa, daily and high-quality cleaning, thanks to the Ajim employee. In general, the staff has a special respect, friendly, polite and smiling! It is very pleasant to be in such an environment. We will definitely come back here with the children.
Wonderful vacation! A huge area for walking. We were accommodated at seven in the morning for a smile and a small non-monetary gift in a room with a sea view. Cleanliness and beauty are everywhere. We were there from January 10 to January 17, 2025. There has already been animation, it goes on in different places throughout the day: there were trampolines, foam parties, cooking workshops, a variety of fitness: trampolines in water, yoga, pilates on sheets, exercise bikes, etc. It's impossible to try everything out and see it. They play the violin here, they play the piano there, they sing in another place, a magician performs in another bar, they paint on faces there... Evening show programs and DJs. I liked everything very much. There are three beaches, very different. It takes 1.5 hours to drive from Sharjah airport without traffic jams. The alcohol is excellent, I'll post it in the photo menu. The food is not top-notch in cooking, but everything is varied and everything is there. Sea day is Friday. We had grilled tuna for a few days, it was very tasty. Really delicious desserts, as everyone says, because we understand that many hotels have margarine in them, but here we were surprised. The Viennese waffles are not very good, but the croissants are delicious. Baskin robins ice cream. The soups are almost all tasteless. Snacks from 12 to 16 in two places, there's like a restaurant, you have to order according to the menu. They have great burgers, really great, chicken wings, pasta. There is a fruit bar, but we didn't eat any delicious fruits, everything is unripe. Cocktails are made differently in different bars, but that's understandable. The room has everything, cleaning every day. If there's a chance, we'll come back, this hotel is worth it.
It's a very cool hotel. We were in February, we are happy with everything, we will come back again. A huge well-maintained territory, many heated pools, some with sea water. The sandy beach with a gentle approach runs along the sea in a wide strip, the breakwaters hold back the waves, it is very pleasant to swim. Food and drinks are at a decent level. The staff is very friendly and attentive. There is a children's club. The disadvantages were not noticed.
Great family hotel. Three big beautiful beaches. Fine sand, good entrance to the sea without rocks, algae. We lived in a villa. Fully renovated rooms. New towels, linens, premium cosmetics. Lots of sports on the beach. Group lessons, volleyball, football. There are questions about food, but you definitely won't stay hungry. The staff is friendly and smiling. The rooms are well cleaned. In restaurants, as usual, people will always circle around you for tips)
A great hotel for both a vacation with a girl and a family vacation! A huge promenade and live music in all corners! Football, fitness, volleyball, yoga. Disco and entertainment programs every evening. We were in early January 2025, the hotel was packed, the staff couldn't quite handle the taxi traffic, so I'm giving it a solid four.
Perfect! I liked everything. Food: seafood every day, a large selection of dishes, very tasty, varied. The rooms are spacious. The cleaning is excellent. The territory is beautiful. The beach is huge, there are always free sun loungers. Children's club for 10+. A lot of staff, all responsive. The only hotel where there is nothing to complain about at all.
I'm writing from the hotel! The hotel has two great advantages: the beach and the sea! The length of the beach is 1 km. Fine sand, the beach is wide!beautiful bay! We made an additional payment for the replacement of the room of $ 951 in 11 days (it turned out cheaper on the spot than if we had booked this room category in Russia) we changed the family room in the main building to the first floor of the villa! You leave the room and you're on the beach! Very convenient!
The third plus is the wonderful sports animation throughout the day! (not everyone needs it on vacation)
Now the cons of the hotel!
3-star service!
There is no bar on the beach! The bar is only by the pool and at the other end of the beach! The waiters are not serving, there are none!
Construction works are underway on the territory, not far from the central pool and the stake restaurant (fenced, sometimes noisy!)
Terrible al card restaurant entry system
There are four restaurants that you can visit once for free, but!!! Record through the program from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. every day and at 9:06 a.m. everything is already occupied! We have been here for 7 days, we have been at the fish restaurant complementarily, in honor of the birthday, we managed to book a meat restaurant for the fourth day at 9:15 a.m. and only at 21:30! Everywhere the service is unsatisfactory, three-star, the staff is unfriendly, the food is not very tasty and little!!!! For 4 people, they offer to choose one salad for everyone, two appetizers and a hot dish for everyone! Neither the meat nor the fish made a good impression! So-so!
The food in the main restaurant is nothing special either! It is monotonous and not very tasty cooked! Once out of 7 days, there was a delicious fish- salmon noticed and oysters worthy!
The dishes in the main pool bar are washed terribly, they are dirty and smelly! When I saw that the bartender had just rinsed the glass under the tap with water and was going to pour champagne into it for me! I refused right away and take drinks only in paper disposable cups! Unsanitary conditions!!! I want to wipe and wash everything!
Room cleaning can be rated at 4 on a five-point scale! But we always leave 5.10 dirhams!
The mini-bar in the room is forgotten to replenish, and it is non-alcoholic for a family of 4 people - just chips, two chocolate waffles, and drinks cola, fanta, sprite! And 4 Bottles of non-carbonated water!
A strange all-inclusive system! Restaurant opening hours are everywhere, not one is open 24 hours! There is a fruit bar on the beach, but it starts its work at 14:00-18:00 there you can choose fruits, they will be cut for you, and there are also juices and fruit water!
Every evening, there is a live vocal performance or a performance by a troupe of acrobatic dancers! There is no special fun, there is no nightclub or disco! You can sit at the bar until 2:00, listen to the DJ, drink and smoke a hookah! The fee is 7000 rubles. 260 dirhams is a high price, but the hookah is not bad!
In general, they need to change the head manager in restaurants and bars, establish a system for monitoring waiters and bartenders, and improve customer service! I don't recommend this hotel! I have been to the Turkish hotel chain Titanic, Cullinan Belek, as well as the neighboring Rixsos bab al bahr, there is something to compare it with!
Only come here if you are looking for the sea and sports! And not for 900,000 thousand rubles per family!
I wish you all a good rest and take care of your nerves!
My impressions are mixed. The staff is trying their best, but the hotel is sooo big and the staff does not have time to serve the guests according to the Rixos level. The food is so-so… There seems to be a large selection of dishes, but there is nothing to eat. A very poor children's menu. Desserts are tasteless. The length of the beach is 1,500 meters. The beach is nice, but there is always someone smoking nearby. The territory is large, guests from distant villas travel around the territory by buggy, but sometimes the buggy has to wait 5-7 minutes. Personally, the waiting annoyed me. There are several a la carte restaurants in the hotel, but we did not visit them. The rooms are quite spacious, but already tired. We stayed in the family room pool View (925). The room is located quite far from the main building, but for me the remoteness from the hustle and bustle is a priority. Overall, the hotel is not bad, but it clearly does not reach the level of Rixos. I'll bet you a sure 4
a good hotel, a pleasant atmosphere, evening animation, a large beach allows you to find a place relatively remote from other vacationers. Beach bars allow you to have a snack without leaving the sea. The kitchen deserves special attention. corresponds to 5 stars.
The hotel is large, the beach is sandy, there are enough sun beds for everyone, the service is generally good, the territory is clean, everything is cleaned, entertainment is available for both children and adults, but in the main restaurant the food is the same every day and the choice is not great. Seafood is scarce. I'm not going there again.
Former Hilton: A good hotel with a well-developed infrastructure, ultra-inclusive, slightly tired rooms, but everything else is on top. The food is excellent, 5 alyakart restaurants. Lots of pools + with sea water. It's like in Turkey, but in 🇦🇪
A gorgeous place! They surprise you with something new every day! We were at the Grill Bar just now! I advise you! Steak "medium ". A very large green area! In general, there are various little things that you should not pay attention to , but just relax , then you are here !!! The hotel has been open since October 1, it is developing very fast! I think you won't recognize him in half a year! Saltwater pools , varied food , high-quality alcohol !!! It's worth a try!
Everything is very good! Friendly staff! A huge territory! There are many locations for every taste! Good cuisine! A variety of evening programs! Live music all day long! Animation! Sports dancing concerts shows are all on the level. I really liked it! This is not the first time we have come!!!
Great hotel! We were with the children in early November. The heat has subsided. The service, the food, the staff are all very high level. A large area, golf carts for her. There are two beaches to choose from, both clean and sandy. The cuisine is varied and delicious. The only drawback was the reconstruction in places. There was no bar and one pool, but there are plenty of pools and bars there without that!
The best animators in the kids' club are here, especially Jana, there's a lot for kids here! The best solution for family holidays! The food here is good, the food is delicious and there is a lot of variety! It's not the first time we've been here, and we can definitely say that it's very good!
A wonderful place where you want to come back again! The food is great, the sea is great, the service is excellent! There is animation for children, yoga for adults in the morning, aqua aerobics and in the evening children's animation and performances by artists for adults.
A very good hotel, excellent service, wonderful diverse cuisine, courteous staff , spacious room , clean beaches, three of them here, two Russian TV channels, Two additional restaurants , a large territory…
Nice big hotel. Diverse cuisine. Pools for toddlers and adults are separate. Nice beach line. Accommodation for every taste, from the main room of the hotel to Private villas. Disco until 22:30,
There is a smoothie bar on the beach.
Nice hotel, helpful staff, quick to respond to requests. There were no problems with food, it was quite varied and delicious) the territory is cozy and well maintained. The rooms are equipped with everything you need, daily cleaning
Rest from January 26 to January 31.
The hotel is good, at least one of the simplest Rixos.
Food/alcohol. There was Prosecco, cheese with mold and brie, tuna, red smoked fish. All on different days, but there were, in addition to a large selection of meat. There are several types of fruits, guava and pineapples are ideal. I don't eat desserts, and it's good, there were 2 tables with masterpieces, the kids were getting high, and there was also a chocolate fountain. And most importantly, natural orange juice and alcohol from bottles, cola from cans, ideally, ice cream at the beach bar.
Territory/beach. 2 huge beaches, you can find your 10,000 with ease, the second one is longer and more deserted, a dream! Sun beds, umbrellas, towels are right next to there, without cards. The water was cool so far, the sand is gorgeous, the sunsets are sunrises👍
Swimming pool. The central one is still cool, where water aerobics is warm, a separate buzz.
Number. It's family-friendly, ridiculously, 2 beds next to each other, instead of a wall from the toilet/bath, transparent glass with blinds that open from the outside. There was a balcony with a sea view, everything is OK
Animation. The cool, adult team and live music didn't feel like a farce anymore, but professional people, it was interesting every evening!
In general, I definitely recommend it, we will try to come back again!
Super hotel, everything is top notch. The staff is attentive, the food and alcohol are excellent, the animation for both children and adults is of high quality. The beach is very nice, clean, you can watch the crabs.
The hotel is beautiful. But of course there are nuances) we lived in room 2602, the washbasin in the toilet splashes in all directions, floods everything around) take action, please! AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, the evening dance show is great, but the vocal show wants to dream of the best! Statistics should work, Pop and WELL-known music SHOULD be!!! But these artists surprised me (pleasantly) on the last evening!
If you have something to compare it with, then I do not recommend going here. What's good here is the beach. It's big and beautiful. There is also a good cleaning service in the room.
In terms of food, I ate vegetables, fruits, cheese. That was the end of the choice for me. It's all kind of nothing. My daughter ate rice and pasta((
Service- everything is impossible everywhere, guests are not respected. I didn't like the service at all.
The short result is that I constantly feel like I'm in a Turkish hotel of a not very high level. Tourists are Russian and from Kazakhstan. There are sooo few foreigners, there are almost none here. There are very screaming and tipsy guests.
Well, somehow it's quite average, rather no than yes. Especially in the UAE.
This is a new hotel that opened on October 1, 2024. The hotel is great, we lived in a villa with huge rooms, 1.5 km of private beach, lots of restaurants, everything is clean, tidy, well maintained. The food is very diverse, everyone will satisfy their appetite here, Depending on the cuisine.
It's almost perfect, the room stock is too old, the staff is trying, the territory is great, big and green. People are working like bees everywhere. In terms of nutrition, for me personally, one main dish is not enough for a child without a choice of either eat or not eat , otherwise a good hotel
We had a week off in the second half of February with a one-year-old child.
In short, everything is fine, except for the service, which suffers a lot at times and will be discussed in detail later, and the food in the main restaurant, which is just a very weak three. In general, the hotel loses to the good five in Turkey, but it is suitable for winter holidays. Now in detail.
Transfer. I strongly advise you to order an individual one, we took it back, because a group one is tough, as you are greeted by very unfriendly girls from a travel agency, then you wait until the whole crowd of tourists gathers in a huge bus, then you barely drag yourself in it, stopping at other hotels. The journey to Rixos took 2.5 hours, despite the fact that the distance there is 1.5 hours, as we saw on the way back, also on the way you stop at al Marjan Island to disembark other tourists, making a huge detour, and at night after the flight with a child in your arms it is such a pleasure.
Number. The rooms are a little tired, but clean, it's nice to be in them, there are sofas, bathrobes, slippers and everything like that. The cleaning is great. There is no beer in the mini bar, there are sodas, chips, chocolates.
Meal
That's the trouble. I advise you not to go to the main restaurant for dinner at all, you will stay hungry, there is nothing to eat there, we were already ready according to the reviews, which is not very good there, but so that ... after suffering there for two evenings, then we went to dinner in Alaska. I won't say that there's an outright delight in the food, but it's much better and the atmosphere is pleasant, and the waiters bring everything to you, by the way, in the main restaurant, they'll just ignore you 99% of the time (well, they say dada to your requests, and then they just disappear forever, which is also about the service).
But in order to drop Ala cards, you need to stand in a long queue at 8.30 to record, and so every morning (reservations are made only the next day). But it's worth it.
All Ala maps are free, but here are the rules, as for me it would be better if they were paid, but without waiting in line to record in the morning.
I didn't really like the fish Alaska food, the Turkish is cool, the toro loco is cool, there are steaks.
By the way, you can go to Alaska's Toro Loko for lunch without an appointment, and we went there every day.
During the day, there is a cafe on the beach where they make fresh fruits, as well as fruit slices, you choose the fruits for them yourself and there is also delicious ice cream. It's a fun topic.
There is also a cool lounge bar near the reception with access to the terrace, there are delicious lemonades, there is Turkish coffee, and from 18.00 they also pour wine and beer.
Cocktails by the main pool are not very tasty, but they are cool in Ala maps.
There is no canned food for children, and there is not much baby food at all, there is a children's corner in the main restaurant, but there is basically the same as on the common table - sausages, yogurt, pancakes.
Swimming pools
6 heated pools, no main beautiful pool, but with sea water.
sun beds are a bit tight, everything is busy.
Sea
The sea was normal in February, it was a bit cold for the children, it's fine for us adults, it's refreshing, but you get used to it quickly. About 22 degrees. The beach is super, the sand is clean, beautiful, not hot. There are a lot of sun beds))
Service
The weakest point is shown in detail and sometimes depends on the human factor. What I didn't like:
Check-out is at 12 and after that they are not allowed to go to lunch, it is petty for such a hotel. I haven't heard of a late check-out either. But it seems to be populated earlier.
The most idiotic situation: the arela bar, a cool place on the outdoor veranda with drinks. They didn't let me go there with the child, but my husband was already waiting for us there and he had already ordered a cocktail for me, which was already poured and was waiting for me on the table, I said OK, since you can't take the child, give me this cocktail with you and we'll leave, to which I was told that the cocktails were they don't let us take it with us , although as it turned out the next day, we calmly came and took a cocktail with us. It was the first day of rest and I was just madly offended that I was being treated like this, and you can't go in with a child, and you can't take a cocktail and drink either, this is with ultra all inclusive and hundreds of thousands given for a week's vacation))) I even went to guest communications and told them about this situation, to which they told me that we would think about what could be done and they did nothing) such is the service))
By the way, in Turkey, for all sorts of small punctures, they brought wine and fruit to the room as an apology, nothing here.
Sometimes there were also unpleasant people among the staff, for example, there was a very nasty guy at the bar with fresh fruit. As it turned out, I approached him 3 minutes before the opening of the bar (I did not know the opening time at the time) and to my "hello", he did not greet me, not goodbye, but dryly said "closed". Well, this)) Then the next day, he just ignored me when I asked him for juice, and only perked up when I told him sharply in English that you couldn't hear me. Another very interesting situation is in the main restaurant for breakfast. We wanted to order coffee, we asked the waiter's girlfriend, she said that you need to go to the coffee station (in the corner of the restaurant) for coffee, okay, I'm going, they say you need to order from the waiters. Both are nonsense, because as it turned out later, you can order both.
Otherwise, the service was good, everyone was helpful and pleasant. The human factor has a place to be.
The territory of the hotel is huge and very beautiful.
The animation is cool. Especially live music every evening by the pool and in Ala maps.
Overall, we are satisfied, although it may seem that there is a lot of negativity in my review, but we liked it, we just wanted to draw attention to the unpleasant moments so that the hotel would work on it.
Wow! Rixos is as good as ever!!!! I love their customer focus. They do not know the answer is "no", their answer is always "no problem" and immediately do everything in their power to make the guest happy. Animation of the cannon. Live music in the lobby from lunch to evening. There is live music on the stage outside at sunset. At 15:00 in costumes of cartoon characters for children playing on the lawn near the stage. At 20:00 children's disco, 20:30 children's performance. The adult show starts at 21:00. Various dances, performances on a professional trampoline are a delight. The food is great. There is always a variety of meat and fish for lunch and dinner. Mussels every other day, tuna also seems to be every other day.
The rooms are spacious, well cleaned, Italian cosmetics (shampoo, shower gel, conditioner, lotion, soap).
The sea is gorgeous, the beach is clean, there are enough sun beds, the pool is generally spacious, as there are many and large pools.
Minus: This time it wasn't every day that red fish was cold for breakfast, but if you personally asked, they brought it out separately on a plate.
It's a wonderful place, I'll definitely be back! Nice rooms, polite and friendly staff. A wide variety of dishes, an assortment of fruits to choose from. The beach is clean
We stayed at the hotel for 9 days in mid-February. It was 2:10 from Dubai Airport. We arrived after 3 p.m., so we were promptly sent to lunch and then checked into a room.
We lived in the main building, the balcony overlooked the main pool. Be prepared for the music to be heard until 22:45. It didn't stop the children from sleeping, but the fact itself.
The room is spacious, there is a shower and a bathtub, and we were pleased with the products from L'occitane. Tea, coffee and a mini-bar were replenished every day.
The food in the main building is good and varied. In my opinion, it is better to order coffee in the lobby. Sometimes it happened that the waiter did not bring drinks, it was necessary to duplicate the order.
An important point is that lunch is not allowed on the day of departure. People were being turned around at the entrance. This was a bit surprising considering that you can safely take drinks, ice cream, and fruits at the beach bar (a cool bar, they make freshly squeezed juices from carrots, apples, and pineapple).
There are a lot of pools, we spent time at the family pool. Water aerobics was also held there. In general, the hotel has an excellent sports program, many different workouts.
There are also several beaches. After a small storm, the fuel oil, feet, slippers were washed up - everything was in it. After a couple of days, everything returned to normal.
The children went to a kids' club: drawing, various crafts, cooking classes, aquagrim, as well as an evening program. The children will definitely not be bored. There is also a club for teenagers from 10 years old.
I was a little surprised by the entry in a la carte restaurants. The recording opens at about 8:30. The queue starts at 8 a.m. For the first time, there was a queue and we were able to sign up at the Toro Loco restaurant at 21:00. The steaks there aren't bad. The second time, they came by 8 a.m. on purpose and were the first in line. And what - the Italian restaurant offered an appointment at 20:30! Although the restaurants are all from 18:30. There was no more desire to stand in queues. Make an electronic record, as, for example, in the Riu network.
In general, we are satisfied with the rest. We ate, bought up, and actively spent time.
We visited in March 2025. Great hotel. I recommend it for family holidays. The food is varied, the staff is friendly and helpful. A huge beach strip. The territory is well maintained.
There are few staff, the service is not at this level of the hotel, the children's animation is very weak and the same thing is 90% of the animation is in English, provided that 80% of the children are Russian-speaking, how can children understand what is wanted from them and what is being talked to them, one day there was when the second animator duplicated everything in Russian.also, in the bar where the evening shows take place, there is no tea or coffee, people drink not only cocktails , bartenders and waiters pretend without tips that they did not hear you had to ask for the same thing several times.and I had to go to the reception for tea and coffee .One of the advantages is the beach, which is clean, large , and has a sufficient number of sun beds and towels.
Very decent food, but sometimes there is nothing to feed the children..pasta, meatballs, dry chicken, sandwiches. There are no children's soups as such, the porridges are watery, mashed potatoes are very rare, but steamed vegetables, fruits, rice, etc. In general, the child was not hungry, but I would like a better and more diverse children's table. There are no problems with adult food, it's very good! I liked the hotel itself with its cool animation, attentive and caring staff, always smiling and ready to help, you feel safe and relaxed. There is a good contingent of vacationers, mostly families with children, about half of Russians. Great sports, lots of interesting outdoor activities every day. Good alcohol, excellent service at the bar. Among the disadvantages, this is a bit old hotel in terms of, for example, some elements of the room (mirrors, balcony doors, etc.) may not be in perfect condition. But it's clean. The cleaning is great, every day and the staff is always very nice! The hotel itself is very beautiful, it's nice to be in it! And also a very cool pool, a slide for a child. With young children, they try to take the ground floors, then exit the room directly onto the street, onto a green clearing in front of the stage, a bar and restaurant, and a recreation area. It is convenient not to use the elevator, etc. For a holiday with a child, this hotel is very suitable and you will be satisfied. There are a lot of entertainment programs for adults, every evening there is live music, shows, dancers. The only thing that's a little boring is that there's nowhere to go outside the hotel, or rather, there's nowhere. So to walk to the store / pharmacy is a dubious option ... there is a store in the hotel, but the prices there are x3. And it looks more like a stall on the market with fake brands , burnt Dubai chocolate worth 2k rubles , etc.
I stayed at the hotel from February 18 to March 01, 2025. One of the best hotels I've been to, the room is great, clean, everything is intact. The service is 5 points, very good Ala-kart restaurants, especially Toro-Loko, Olivio.
Very nice hotel, everything is clean, there is a small selection of food, but delicious, excellent coffee.
I really liked the game room. Nice staff, checked in upon arrival.
Now in this hotel. We arrived on February 09.
What can I say: it's not Rixos. Those who have been to hotels in this chain have written about it repeatedly and I completely agree with them.
The rooms are nice, and there are plenty of pools. The staff tries to please and help in everything, but this hotel is still far from the Rixos service. I'll describe why below.:
1. The fattest minus is the main Buffet restaurant. The food is there, quite tasty, but the service is very lame. All due to the lack of staff and the capacity of the restaurant itself. At first it was tolerable, but on February 14, a large group of tourists stopped by and then the failure began. For breakfast and lunch, you run around and look for a table. It can take up to 10 minutes. Then you look for one of the waiters to clean the table and bring the dishes. Then, in a crowd of people, as in the year of famine, you try to lay food and stand in line for fried eggs, pancakes, and everywhere at the cooking stations. The food that is ready ends quickly and you wait for new portions to arrive. The staff is trying, but they can't handle it. And all this with a small child who wants to eat. Today, for example, we were looking for a table for about 10 minutes, and we took it, but while I was getting food, my daughter ran to the stroller and my wife followed her, and when she returned, the table was occupied by other people. That is, they just came and sat down at it, and the waiter began to deal with them, suggesting that we look for another table ourselves. It took another 5 minutes and again searching for a waiter and waiting for the table to be cleaned. As a result: a spoiled mood for the whole day and a screaming child. This is called the Rixos service???
But for dinner yesterday we had a huge queue at the entrance and a 30-minute wait.
The mood was spoiled again, because the child was hungry, and there was nowhere to feed him. The rest of the restaurants operate according to the a la carte system and you need to sign up for them a day in advance. That is, there is no alternative. That's why you're standing in line and waiting. I have attached photos of queues to the review.
2. Smoking areas. They're all around here. I'm a smoker myself, but I respect others, especially children, so I stay away so as not to smoke on them. But many people don't care. They believe that if you can smoke, then you can smoke all around. Even on the sun beds
3. Evening animation zone: if you arrive around 8 p.m., there will be no empty seats. And again, some people don't hesitate to smoke cigarettes right at the table in front of the children and all the smoke rushes at them. It is clear that this is a question for the people themselves, but the staff does not respond to this in any way. The concept is such that no comments can be made. Many made comments themselves.
4. Bars: there are always queues at the stage bar in the evening. In fact, he's the only one here. There are two bars inside the hotel, but I want to spend time outdoors, not in the hotel.
There are advantages too of course:
1. The animation is great
2. The Kids club and its staff are great fellows. There is something to keep a child of any age occupied.
3. Plenty of pools. There are no seats available on the family after 11.30, but you can go to the villas. It's always quiet, peaceful, and there are plenty of free sun beds, and the sea always has a choice.
4. Diligent and smiling staff.
As a result: I give 2 stars so that the management will pay attention to the serious problem with staff shortages and difficulties in the main restaurant. If it's not the season right now, then I'm afraid to imagine what's going on here when it's fully loaded.
After paying 700,000 rubles for a 10-day tour, you want to relax and not think about anything, but it turns out that the mood is spoiling from the crowd of people and queues - you definitely don't expect this, especially from Rixos. I've been to 3 hotels in this chain and I've never seen anything like it. I'm not a particularly picky person, but when I pay a lot of money, the expectations are different.
I will describe what I did not like, which the hotel administration may take into account in the future.: 1) sometimes the sea is dirty, and only the garbage that washed ashore is cleaned. Take a net and you can remove what is still floating in the water. 2) it's unpleasant when after every visit to an a la carte restaurant, as well as the maid on the floor, everyone asks to enter the QR code and write a review about them, pointing to their name! People came to rest. Why are you bothering them so much? 3) terrible music both during the day in the pool area and late at night. Why can't you turn on relaxing music at least during the day? Late at night, it generally hits the brain. And many of them have numbers that look at your animation. 4) Children's animation is terrible. It resembles some kind of cheap boring event; 5) slow service in a restaurant - you order wine, tea, etc., and sometimes you wait so long that you go to get it yourself, or remind the waiter again; 6) people on the floor next to the room sometimes leave dirty dishes and leftovers. One day, from the very morning until late at night, NONE of your staff cleaned up this garbage, like it wasn't their job, they just cleaned the room inside! What's in the lobby? Garbage (plates with leftovers) throughout the day so I lay in the lobby next to several rooms, until at 19:00 I went to the reception with a complaint to clean up! This is not normal!
