Riu Hotel Dubai is an excellent choice for a fun, relaxing getaway. Located right on the beach, the hotel offers stunning views and easy access to the water, making it perfect for anyone looking to enjoy the sun and sea. The all-inclusive package is a major highlight, with a wide range of food and drinks available all day. The buffet is impressive, offering a mix of international and local dishes, and the themed restaurants add variety to your dining experience.
The rooms are clean, modern, and comfortable, with everything you need for a great stay. I loved the spacious layout and the balcony, which offered a great spot to unwind with a view. The pool area is another standout—plenty of loungers, great service, and a vibrant atmosphere. Whether you’re looking to relax or join in on the activities, there’s something for everyone.
The staff are friendly, attentive, and always ready to help, which made the experience even better. It’s a busy hotel, so it can get a little crowded at times, but everything is so well-organized that it doesn’t feel overwhelming. Overall, Riu Hotel Dubai is a fantastic option if you’re looking for a lively, all-inclusive stay with great amenities!

the service is fantastic and always helps. the rooms are clean and always cleaned. breakfast and dinner super, a lot of choice and there really is nothing to complain about as well as the restaurant service super. overall the hotel service is great and I give them 100%. unfortunately 24 all-inclusive is not quite as it should be, alcohol is only from 10 am to 3 am where it doesn't bother me at all but no choice of alcohol, cheap vodka and cheap whiskey which is disgusting no matter what you mix it with, I had to try very hard so that they could mix vodka for me from cans because their cola is so disgusting that you can't drink it. so I recommend hotels to start having cans in bars. apart from that there are three swimming pools I understand that there are people with children but there should also be one swimming pool only for adults! you have a drink and the kids or you get a ball or you have water from the pool in your drink because the kids are swimming or jumping. there were a lot of older people who wanted to relax unfortunately they couldn't because the kids were jumping, the parents were drinking and trying to keep the kids behind the line in the pool. the pool should be only for 16+ and that would help the hotel a lot. I talked to the manager and I hope it will happen, a very positive person. Overall the hotel is super clean and the location is great!! everyone together with the manager is very great people! the parties didn't make sense either because at the same time there was a party upstairs and on the beach where it doesn't make sense at all! most hotels I've been to were for children from 19 to 21 and from 21 to 3 in the morning on the beach where it makes sense and people have fun here people got nervous and went back to their room. But overall the hotel is great service and restaurant Respect.

We stayed here in June 2024 and had an amazing experience as a family. The service was exceptional, the staff were friendly and accommodating, and the facilities were perfect for our needs. We loved every minute of our holiday. The buffet restaurant had maples of choice throughout the day. The Asian restaurant was our favourite but do check when it's open on arrival as we only got to go once as it was closed the rest of our holiday but this didn't affect our experience.

Stayed in May 2024 and can’t think of a single thing I would fault with this hotel. The service was top notch, the food was incredible, and the facilities spotlessly clean.
I highly recommend purchasing a sea view room as the views in the evening are great.
We travelled with our 4 year old son who had his birthday while at the hotel. He was overwhelmed by the attention he got at dinner and the little touches like a birthday cake and a well orchestrated happy birthday song just blew him away.
I have noticed that the location has often been mentioned as a sticking point but in my opinion, it is perfect. Close enough to travel into town cheaply but also far enough away from the busy delights of Dubai so you can have a relaxing holiday mixed with a city break.
We payed a chauffeur to take us on a 6 hour tour of Dubai, where he waited for us at every attraction. This cost less than £180 for the whole family and made our holiday.
I must mention the service again, just incredible.
On day two I suffered from sinus pain, the hotel helped me get medication delivered to the hotel within an hour and the cost was minimal.
I highly recommend this hotel for any young families wanting a base to explore Dubai. If you have young children, the splash parks will have them entertained for hours, alternatively the multiple pools will keep the adults entertained.

We had an amazing time. Stayed there 4 years ago and we decided to come back which I am glad we did. Definitely can notice a lot of upgrades like food wise and variety of drinks. The Staff are exceptional honestly! So friendly and always accommodating! Entertainment was really fun! And watersports were definitely a plus. We are definitely coming back.
