I wrote a HUGE 5 Star review on TripAdvisor. The service, the food, the location, all 5 Star!! Their staff is attentive, friendly and professional. We had breakfast buffet every morning and the food was fresh and yummy!! The location is AMAZING!!! Great Dubai skyline views off the beach, and it's a BEAUTIFUL BEACH!! On the opposite side, walking distance, you're across from Golden Mile where there are shops, restaurants, and even a little market. And the food in the us tasty! As well, you're just a quick tram ride (walking distance to the hotel entrance- behind Golden Mile Shops) to Atlantis. Spend the day at their water park. Oh and here's where my 5 stars comes in... there is SO MUCH security at Atlantis, they take away from "friendly." The staff is ok, at best. No "wow" service. As well, they're kinda unapproachable. You have to go to them, where in Fairmont, THEY go to you. It's noticeable when you first pull up. Their valets are simply there to open car doors; at Fairmont, they truly greet you!! Fairmont is DEFINITELY THE place to stay!
