My brother and I stayed at Riu Dubai at the end of August/beginning of September – and honestly, it was just perfect!
It was already my third visit to this hotel, and every single time it truly feels like coming home. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed and were even able to check in at 7:00 in the morning – a service you definitely don’t find everywhere. To our delight, we also received a wonderful upgrade to a sea view room, which made our stay even more special.
Throughout our entire stay, the whole team was exceptionally friendly, attentive, and caring. What truly stood out was the way they looked after me when I unfortunately fell ill during the trip. The level of care, kindness, and professionalism was something I have never experienced in any other hotel before – simply outstanding!
The atmosphere, the cleanliness, the food, and the location all exceeded our expectations.
For us, it is clear: for all future trips to Dubai, we will only stay at Riu Dubai. This hotel didn’t just convince us – it amazed us, and we are so grateful for the wonderful memories we were able to make here.
A huge thank you to the entire team – you are doing a fantastic job!
Best regards from Marcel & Joshua Room 9062

Wow. Wow. Wow. Could not talk any higher about this venue if my life depended on it. The service was impeccable, and there was always a drink in my hand without needing to ask. The staff were always a step ahead an so helpful, making sure we had everything we needed in the room and by the pool.
The pool was busy, but well controlled, and all children were directed to the shallower pools. The waterpark was actually so fun too! As two adults, we never thought we’d be running circles to go down the slide. The staff looked like they enjoyed laughing at my fear as much as I did going down them.
The food was incredible too. So many options for breakfast, lunch and dinner, including vegetarian and vegan options, if that’s your thing. Honestly still think about these buffets now that I’m home.
The rooms were spacious and had great air con to combat the Dubai summer heat.
We will 100% be back here!

The atmosphere at the hotel is very relaxed, making it the perfect place to unwind. The staff are extremely attentive, friendly, and courteous – they truly make you feel welcome. Room service is excellent and always reliable.
One of the highlights of the hotel is definitely the themed restaurants, which are very well designed and highly recommended. At the beach, there are always enough sunbeds available, including umbrellas, so finding a spot is never a problem.
However, at the pool it is quite difficult to get a sunbed after 8 a.m., especially near the Oasis and Coral Bar. Many sunbeds are reserved with towels and personal belongings, but often remain unused throughout the day, which can be frustrating. Another small downside is that there is no drink service at the beach – guests have to fetch drinks themselves from the pool bars.
On the positive side, there is live music in the afternoons at the Oasis Bar, which creates a very pleasant atmosphere. The lifeguards also do a great job; they are very attentive and take their responsibility seriously.
Overall, this hotel offers a wonderful stay with excellent service, great dining experiences, and a relaxing environment. With just a few improvements around the pool area and beach service, it could be even more perfect.

Now at the hotel. 1. Good welcome. 2. The food is rich in a large variety of all types, not high quality but tasty and satisfying and nothing more. 3 The beach is excellent, clean, tidy and well-equipped. 4 The pool and snack facilities are satisfactory. 5. The employees are very nice, especially at the sports bar. 6. The room is a reasonable size. The shower is not properly equipped, lacks soaps and hand cream and other things that every hotel provides, the room is not suitable for more than a couple. The spa bed is not comfortable at all, not worth it!. I recommend that the hotel manager do a serious cleaning of the rooms! The smell of mold in the room is not pleasant at all!!!!! In conclusion, the hotel functions relatively well, needs improvement on the room, it is not recommended for more than 2 people in the room! The hotel offers a variety of food and spicy drinks of all kinds! Without a doubt, a hotel that is suitable for families only! Good luck

Wonderful Family Stay at Hotel Riu Dubai!
We stayed at Hotel Riu Dubai for two nights with family, and it was truly a fantastic experience! The staff were extremely friendly and welcoming, which made us feel right at home.
Since it’s an all-inclusive hotel, everything was super convenient — no worries about extra costs for food, drinks, or activities. The main restaurant had a wide variety of delicious dishes, and we also enjoyed dining at the separate Italian and Arabic restaurants. You’re free to eat at any of them as you wish, which was a great option.
The highlight of our stay was definitely the pool bars — wow, just awesome! They offered a huge variety of cocktails and alcoholic drinks, all unlimited. Perfect vibe to relax by the pool.
We checked in a bit early at 2:45 PM (though the check in time was 3 PM), and they welcomed us warmly and invited us to have lunch right away. What touched us even more was that after checking out at 12 PM, we were still allowed to enjoy lunch. I’ve never experienced such a thoughtful gesture anywhere else!
The night DJ was energetic and fun — the vibe was lively, and we never got bored. The hotel has three large pools, all super clean and cool, and the waterpark was amazing — my kid absolutely loved it!
On top of all that, the hotel also offers boating and kayaking facilities, which are included in the package! It was a wonderful surprise and added even more fun to our stay.
Overall, this was a perfect holiday spot — fun, relaxing, and full of memorable moments. Totally worth a visit! 👏👏👏
