The property was very nice. Its on the high end side. The room was a villa style but it was too big for us. It is convenient for food as there are restaurants but very pricy. There is no nearby stores. You have to take a taxi if you want to go downtown.

We recently enjoyed a vacation at Sofitel Dubai The Palm Resort & Spa, and overall, it was a lovely experience. The resort itself exudes luxury with its spacious and impeccably clean accommodations. The staff were friendly and attentive, making our stay comfortable and enjoyable. While we appreciated the valet service, there were times when it took longer than expected. However, the team was always on the ball and ready to assist when needed. A special mention goes to Tamer, Rizwan, and Samuel, who provided exceptional service throughout our stay. They truly went above and beyond to ensure our needs were met and made our experience memorable. I would also like to thank Sameer who also was amazing. He arranged for a late check out for 13:00 which accommodated us perfect for the day. One aspect to consider is that the hotel was quite busy during half term, which brought in a lot of families with children. While this added to the lively atmosphere, I had hoped for a more serene luxury experience. The beach was decent but lacked strong currents, making it feel somewhat mediocre compared to other beachfront resorts. The pools, while nice, were on the smaller side, which might be a consideration for those looking for a more expansive swimming experience. Despite these minor drawbacks, I would still recommend Sofitel Dubai The Palm as a solid choice on The Palm. It surpasses many other options in the area and offers a wonderful blend of luxury and hospitality.

This hotel was great and the staff very helpful. They catered to our dairy allergy amazingly and always gave us options for what they could do to provide food with dairy. The pools are great and a great place to spend a week. Did not like Dubai overall as it was way too expensive and very busy. The desk that does organise the trips got a few things slightly wrong and probably cost us more than we should have. Make sure you ask exactly what it is you are paying for and how much each item is.
