This is a lovely resort hotel on the outskirts of Abu Dhabi. It takes at least half an hour to town in a taxi, and the taxis are infrequent and can be expensive, so I would only recommend this hotel only for someone who wants a quiet time, away from it all and is not that bothered about going into... more

Horribly and tacky designed hotel with absolutely awful beach overlooking industrial area. Rooms are specious but awfully designed. They've got several good restaurant and night club. Staff friend and professional. more

My Boyfriend and I stayed here at the beginning of March this year. We had a fantastic holiday and the hotel was wonderful. On arrival at 8am there were profuse apologie that my room wsnt ready even though i wasnt expecting it to be. I was offered Tea and had some breakfast. The lobby is huge and they seemed to... more

We stayed at Al Raha Beach early February; the temperatures were low, from 20 to 23 degrees, there was a breeze, but the sun was shining and the sky was clear blue, we were happy to have found a slice of paradise! This is a wonderful place to go for a relaxing holiday. We stayed in a deluxe room, the... more

Plenty of facilities, gym, squash court, water sports, spa plus the usual beach/pool. The service was at times poor, however i've found no different than other hotels in... more

Beautiful hotel but stay was spoilt due to Hotel still owing me money and appear to be very reluctant to put this situation right. Upon arrival at reception they ask you to authorise them to 'hold' 1000 aed. However, expect your account to be debited and 1 month later, despite emails (unanswered) and phone calls, my bank account is still... more

We were due to stay at the hotel between the 1st and 4th November however after two days we checked out and went to the Sheraton Towers hotel. This was mainly due to the fact that the main restaurant was closed and they were using their much smaller mediterranean restaurant which could not cope with the volume of guests for... more

We stayed at the Al Raha for 6 nights and can honestly say that the stay was fabulous from the moment we arrived to the time we left. We flew with Etihad to AD from Heathrow and the only thing wrong was that the in-flight entertainment system failed for the whole flight. But as it was on overnight flight this... more
