Great option for short stayover..
Excellent resort hotel. Great rooms and fantastic staff. Rooms and public areas well maintained and clean. Food was great. Half board arrangement was good value. Drinks prices, outside of happy hour, were very expensive. There is a lack of hooks / rails to hang hand and bath towels up in the room. The assumption may be that guests will use once and demand fresh ones but odd nonetheless.

Our second time back to the Sofitel on the Palm and just brilliant! It really embedded everything we initially felt about our previous stay. We had the the one bedroom apartment, which was huge and elegant with a massive bed and the biggest bath tub I have ever seen. Very peaceful resort, which was a nice contrast to the hub bub of the rest of Dubai, which was very easily and cheaply accessible by the government taxis. A very short distance to Aquaventure, which we love. Would highly recommend this hotel.

Beautiful hotel with great pool and lovely beach. We stayed in a 1 bedroom apartment which was lovely and spacious. Some ware to the room, things like the sofa and bathroom looked well used now the hotels been there for sometime. All staff were very lovely. Check in took a little while as they only have two people on the desk and the spa/salon people are quite persistant asking if youd like any services which i dont think is needed. Still, the location and hotel are beautiful and the staff very helpful.
