Issues we have face as of a family of ( 1 baby and a toddler): 1. EXCELLENT hotel for a gateway with the family. 2. Service is very bad ( in room dining and cleaning( 3. You can smell the sewage odor in the bathroom 4. Our room didnt have a carpet, and after a fight and arguments they have transferred us the next day into another room with no carpet again :). 5. Receptionists to the management have a zero experience in how to organise heavy crowd during eid. 6. Ayo and most of rhe valet personnel were helpful only.

Pros: - nice beach, access to ocean (unfortunately it was too cold to swim at in January) - hotel is very green (gardeners obviously doing a magnificent job - lots of trees and flowers everywhere) - several restaurants on the territory with all kinds of food. We enjoyed “Al Majlis” the most: breakfast is standard, but diverse; dinner had lots of food variety (all tastes yummy and looks delicious) with different international theme every eve; even kitchen decor was changed every day from fascinating paper sculptures to gorgeous paintings (if I’m not mistaken - made by one of the chefs). Special thanks to Raghunath - kitchen staff manager and all his crew, who helped us organize my Mom’s surprise birthday dinner. - both (open and inside) pools are specious and pleasant - hotel rooms are nice, cleaned every day by very polite and professional staff. Special shout out to Joyce - our cleaning lady for being attentive and patient with my elderly parents. - lots of entertainment in the hotel (we enjoyed yoga, aqua aerobics, beach volleyball…) - all lead by great animation team of international guys/girls Cons: - current construction of another hotel next to Miramar was noisy - main walking paths of Miramar are made from big bricks, when some bins or suite cases get pulled on the bricks (sometimes at 5am) - the noise is very annoying - there were some tiny ants in our room, even though we didn’t bring any food in

An EV station is all you need fora perfect score
It would have been an excellent review if only they had a proper electric vehicle charging station. A small investment that would have huge returns Otherwise great experience and special mention to Sunday. He is a delight.

Disappointing!
Really disappointed in our stay. Although the property was very beautiful and clean, the service itself was TERRIBLE and so slow. Literally took 45 minutes to serve too drinks. When we have feedback the staff were very unreceptive and inattentive. Would definitely not go back.

Super expensive relative to what you expect as a 5-stars hotel! Food was bad whether in the morning buffet or La Cucina or Bahari Grill, cleanliness is terrible, staff are friendly but not up to the 5-stars customer service, very expensive. I was offered a room that looks over a construction site on arrival, requested to change it and they helped with a better one. No one from Hotel management checked up to see our feedback or if we are happy. Pool and landscaping where good

Second time not so good
We returned after we had an amazing stay early January. This time for our anniversary. But it was not so good. Service was really bad. We didn’t know about the all inclusive offer either. It wasn’t great. Very expensive if you don’t take some offer

Room was not the same category as in pictures when I booked on the site. Hotel insisted we pay 1700AED more for two nights to get that room. (Ground floor room were pictured, but we could only get 2nd floor room) Overall stay was amazing. Great dive camp on hotel grounds

Great location, great service - everyone was very nice and attentive. Nice fruit basket upon arrival in the room. The room is spacious, clean and comfortable. The beach and pool are really nice just like as well, other amenities (eg spa) are a bit outdated but it was good to have a sauna/jacuzzi to relax after our dives/hikes. The parking is a big mess though - if you do require to park I recommend doing it yourself and not use the valet. Also make sure you plan plenty of time for check out because there's some weird guideline about getting some sort of exit ticket first and the queues are ridiculous. Property is a good value for money and would definitely come back.

Amazing stay - we will come again!
We had an amazing stay in Miramar. From welcoming until checking out, we just met very friendly staff, had wonderful stays at the high quality restaurants and enjoyed the very clean resort, beach and the comfortable room. Our special wishes were handled quick and uncomplicated. This showed us, that also the management of the hotel is working with high professionalism and is understanding how to motivate the staff. We can highly recommend this Hotel and will definitely come again!

Nice place with fantastic staff
We booked the hotel to celebrate NYE and confirmed on call about gala dinner being organized. Checkedin ontime but gala dinner was already fully booked. Unlike other hotels in the area, those organize NYE gala dinner in a big lawn area, this was adjusted in a small restaurant. Being not so attractive dinner and covid season, we didnt mind ditching NYE party for good. But wish there was a clear communication during our call before booking. We instead went ahead for a buffet dinner in their main restaurant and the food was really below standard. Some dishes were inadequately cooked and some hot dishes were being served cold. Menu selection appeared to be victim of over-creativity, with food combinations making less logical sense. Our lunch experience at beach restaurant has also been below standard. Apart from this, hotel otherwise has been decent with a nice big pool, private beach, beautiful ambience and well managed property. I liked the spacious room layout and sea facing balcony. Hotel staff was especially quite caring, friendly and concerned about good experience of the guests which was fantastic.

Abysmal front desk check in/check out service
Check in and check out were both needlessly painful and unprofessional - not in keeping with the standard of this hotel. We were four guests checking into two rooms. On check in, I found my wife and friends had been forgotten about in the lounge while I had gone to park the car. The lady who checked me in seemed new and had to call her manager for literally everything. She didn’t even acknowledge my gold status with over 140 nights stayed in hotel over the past year. She demanded our IDs, but meanwhile it was the front desk that had sent everyone away. I understand COVID rules - then please go to the lounge to collect IDs and explain the special check in procedures to guests. Don’t leave people waiting and confused... Check out was equally absurd and confused by the ladies behind the front desk. Only upon going outside to get my car was I notified by the kind gentleman sweating in the heat that I needed a card from reception to release my car. I went back inside to get this card, at which point they told me I would have to now wait until they could check the mini bar. I found this laughable, as due to COVID, the mini bar is only stocked on request. How on earth are they going to go check an empty mini bar??!?! Any why was this not done while I was checking out? Please train your people and put some warm and intelligent hospitality experts behind the front desk. If it wasn’t for the above, I would absolutely stay in the hotel based solely on its beauty. Such a shame!
