We had a wonderful rest! The hotel is clean, beautiful, the territory is not large, but well maintained. There are a lot of sun beds, there is always a place.
The menu is varied, you can choose dishes for every taste.
The staff is exceptionally polite, there are many Russian speakers, so it's always easy to explain. Beautiful sunsets!
A great soulful hotel. Calm, not suitable for young people, there are no parties. The animation
is good, water aerobics, dancing, yoga.
The staff, almost all of them, speak Russian at one level or another. The kitchen is similar to home, without frills, but everything is delicious. There has always been fish, meat, and chicken. Lots of vegetables. Everything is fresh, the dishes are regularly updated. There were always enough sun beds, despite the full load of the hotel. I recommend.
A wonderful hotel. Good location. Clean beach and beautiful sea. The food is always delicious. Thanks to the chef. A lot of Russian cuisine. This is not the first time we have rested here. The hotel is popular, so you need to book at least a month in advance. Thanks to Aelima.
The hotel is excellent, conveniently located, very friendly staff, clean, high-quality, delicious food, excellent beach, there are enough sun beds for everyone, the sea is incomparable, the rooms are clean, cleaning every day, tea, coffee, water too. We were very satisfied with the rest, we rested with friends from December 1 to December 10, 2024.
A wonderful hotel!
The sea, the sand! You can swim in the pool.
The room stock is a bit old, but this does not spoil the overall impression in any way. The hotel is clean and cozy, the food is great. By the way, during the tour we tried food in other hotels, a higher class, it tastes better here.
And of course, a very convenient location, this is a big plus!
The staff is friendly, they try very hard) Thanks a lot to everyone, especially the Lama)
There are shops and a pharmacy nearby, you can buy everything you need 👌
The hotel is wonderful!!! The first coast, the most gorgeous beach and high-class service!!! The food is excellent, everything is very tasty!!! The rooms are large (I have a Deluxe with sea view), the balcony is huge, everything is renovated. I am happy that I came to this hotel and I highly recommend it to everyone
The hotel fully met our expectations, we had a rest in February, the weather is warm 24-27 degrees, we really liked everything: the service is good, the food is varied. An animation program is offered every day: water aerobics, yoga, dancing. Great staff, wonderful animation girls! We recommend this hotel and we will definitely come here again!
A wonderful hotel. The child is delighted. Transfer from the airport 🤘The food is varied (the chef and the restaurant staff are great fellows 🙏), the sea is fresh milk, the pool and the room are clean, the staff is responsive (many employees understand Russian, while they do not speak it themselves; Russian-speaking staff are also available👍).
Within walking distance of mini CM, excursions to choose from and according to your wishes.
This is our first vacation here, but we are already planning to definitely return))) 😊
Most importantly, there is a beautiful beach here, you can always find sun beds and a place for every taste. Sooooo delicious and high-quality food. The hotel is generally wonderful, but it has been renovated for several years. We really like everything and it's not our first time here. There is a market and a pharmacy nearby, which is important!
I have been staying at this hotel for over 20 years! I'm crazy about him! Compact, everything is convenient, the kitchen is delicious, the staff solves all the little things quickly, everyone is smiling, everything is fine! The last time was from July 10, 24, the weather was pampered, it was very good, there was no heat, air 34-36, water 31-33! There's even a breeze in the evening! Don't be afraid to go in the summer! The main sea is 5 meters away, very clean! Yes, it was being repaired, but it didn't bother! I'm happy with everything, everything is fine! And there are always enough dissatisfied people everywhere!
Many thanks to Anastasia's fitness aerobics coach. She's just gorgeous. Every day, throughout the rest, the whole family (6 people) was engaged in water aerobics, and even the child was happy to participate. The sea is warm, the people are cheerful. Anastasia is a professional, very tolerant, knows her job very well. We are just happy, grateful and wish prosperity to the Occidental Hotel and success to Anastasia. You've done well. We recommend the hotel to everyone
One of the most comfortable hotels on the Sharjah coast. Regular transfers to shopping malls and Sharjah Airport. Excellent food in the restaurant. There are always free sun beds by the pool and on the shore. Friendly staff, clean rooms.In September 2024, the renovation of the 3rd floor was completed .
Excellent and not a big hotel, everything is there . I would also like to mention the daily cleaning, everything is always clean. Excellent food and a variety of dishes, excellent beef cooking. The kids' club is wonderful, my daughter was happy to go to it and was reluctant to leave.
We were a family of three, two adults and one child. From 30.09 to 6.09.24.
Advantages:
The beach is clean, the water is clear, a lifeguard is on duty, only in the evenings brought jellyfish, but not a lot. The beach itself is next to the hotel, its own territory. They let you go to the sea from 7 a.m., the door is closed, and towels are not given out, but if you have a room on the 1st floor, with a terrace, then you can go from your room. For someone, this is a minus.
Food- everyone has a different taste, every evening a different cuisine. Mexican, American, Asian, Russian, Continental, Arabic. We only had breakfast and dinner included, but upon check-out, we went to lunch (240 dirhams for three), and it seemed to us that dinner would be more interesting.
Pool - there is a lifeguard, one small pool, for kids, the other with different depths, in one place 1.40 m at the other end 2.70 m, which is very convenient. And there is a Jacuzzi.
The room is clean, everything works. The sockets near the bed are universal, suitable for Russian chargers. We cleaned and changed towels and bed linen on time, put a bottle of 0.5 water per person, every day.
There are a lot of families with children, therefore, ours was not boring, as he quickly found friends.
The location is near a pharmacy, shops.
There is a prohibition in this emirate, so there is no alcohol.
Minuses:
The children's room is closed, it is under restoration, as we were told, and will work with animators in October. The restoration of the hotel, there was noise, but it is floating, today in one place, tomorrow in another. In the next room, they made a balcony.
Conclusion: if you are interested in just lying down, sunbathing, and swimming in the Persian Gulf, and if you have a child, and he can either have fun himself or get acquainted, then it is definitely worth it here, but if you are interested in discos and alcohol, then this is not here.
It was in November, a very comfortable climate, warm water in the sea. The staff is very friendly. Food for every taste, you can always choose for yourself, even with a dietary bias. Thanks a lot to everyone! It was a pleasant stay. Good cleaning, regular linen change and daily towel change. The territory is too small…
A great hotel to stay in! A spacious clean beach with plenty of sun beds and umbrellas both on the beach and by the pool, we always had enough. Clean sea and clean sand. A large swimming pool. There is a Jacuzzi with hot water. The territory is beautifully decorated with palm trees and greenery. There is a children's room. Very good dining room and delicious food, many thanks to the chef, everything is fresh and delicious, lots of fruits. There is a gym. We must cancel that the staff is very nice and helpful. All issues are quickly resolved, they asked for an iron, did not have time to reach the room, it was already brought and so on, everything is fast and clear. We had a family vacation with a small child and were very satisfied.
We went to this hotel with the children in early November 2023. In general, we were satisfied with the rest. The hotel is small, the food is good, drinks are paid. Sunbeds on the beach are engaged from 7 o'clock, we came after breakfast at 9 o'clock - there were not many places left, but there were always free places by the pool. A free shuttle bus runs from the hotel several times a day to Dubai Mall and back. We went several times to walk along the Dubai Mall, look at the Burj Khalifa and fountains. The cartoon also has a place to walk in the center, but you need to get to the center by taxi.
In general, I remembered and liked the trip, but we probably won't go to the UAE for the second time.
A great hotel to stay in! A wide beach strip, a beach with a lot of sun beds and umbrellas both on the beach and by the pool, we always had enough. Clean sea and clean sand. A large swimming pool right by the sea. There is a Jacuzzi with hot water. The territory is beautifully decorated with palm trees and greenery. There is a volleyball net on the beach. Two meals a day , you can choose lunch or dinner . The food is well prepared. Lots of fruits. There is a fondue dish . The dishes change every day , and repeat after a week . The rooms are spacious, cleaned every day, the linen is good. There are a lot of rooms with sea views. There is a table and chairs on the balconies. There is a free bus from the hotel to shopping malls (registration at the reception is required).
Excellent animation, gorgeous girls, fervent, active coaches, will delicately stir up any sluggard, Oksana and Anastasia, daily yoga, aqua aerobics, zumba, oriental dancing classes are professional, aesthetically pleasing, and comfortable - it's a special pleasure to admire the beauty and grace of the presenters and participants. The cherry on the cake is special exercises for the back, with an individual approach to everyone.
The hotel is located right on the shore, equipped with a beach. The rooms are not bad, there are large balconies. The food is normal. Free transfer to Dubai Mall from the hotel. 90% Russian. The staff is Russian-speaking. You can take different excursions right at the hotel, change money. There is a supermarket nearby. There is everything for relaxation!
A great hotel, we took a family room for 4 people with a large bed and a 2-bed sofa. The hotel is far from busy areas, but due to the fact that it has its own clean beach, a warm large swimming pool, a children's room, sports courts and cafes, there is no sense of isolation. There is a small supermarket nearby. You can rent a car at the hotel, but they demanded a unionpay card from me, there was only a mastercard, they said "...sorry", well, okay, I took a car at a nearby hotel. The breakfasts are normal, you won't stay hungry, sometimes we ate in the hotel cafe in the afternoon and evening, it's also normal, the menu is not large, but in general you can eat, especially delicious grilled sea bass. We cleaned every day. The only drawback is that there is no extractor hood in the bathroom, there is high humidity after a shower, everything becomes damp.
I can't remember how many times we stay at our favorite hotel and always come home! Thank you for the unsurpassed work of Meena, he always has everything under control, treats his work with all his soul and responsibility, thanks to him your vacation will be unforgettable, chief manager from God! Also, many thanks to Kristina, here without further ado, a person of a broad soul and a huge heart, is always ready to help solve any problem♥️
Thanks to the hotel for its amazing staff at the Meena restaurant (Taha ♥️, Nilam ♥️, Josh♥️, Amina, Limar), who made our every meal with the child much easier and tried to help every second. Taha is an amazing man with a huge heart, he was with us every meal! Thank you Nelson for his kindness and attention to us! And the whole parade is led by the unsurpassed maestro chef Maurice!
♥️Special thanks also to the staff of the children's room, in particular Zamira, she gets along well with children and is very attentive to her work. He always comes up with interesting activities and pays attention to everyone! You can entrust your child to Zamira, even the smallest, without any doubt that he will be under close supervision and he will not be bored! A million thanks!
The cleaning is beyond praise, professional, fast, just perfect thanks to Rana!
P.S. The decorations for the new year are incredibly fascinating , nothing more beautiful has ever been seen.
Excellent cuisine, courteous staff.
They always smile at you))
I recommend this particular hotel to everyone.
1 sea line , beach, swimming pool.
Entertainment programs for children and adults every day. There are many different excursions and transfers from the hotel.
I think you'll like it!
The hotel is good for a beach holiday. We took everything included so as not to bother with food, especially when there are two children. The food is not bad, but on the plus side, you can ask in advance to separately cook boiled meat without additives, buckwheat, pasta for children, and they will bring you a plate. All employees are trying, working, problems were solved well, if there were any. One of the disadvantages is the absence of anything after 6 p.m. There is simply nothing to do at the hotel, and there is absolutely nothing interesting within walking distance. It's a long drive to Dubai at this time, and it's expensive. Taxi to Dubai Marina is 150 dirhams approximately. The transfer can be ordered, but 3 days in advance and at 00:01 the reservation opens, it is necessary to take time at this time through the hotel's application - Barcelo. Therefore, I advise you to download movies for the evenings, since the TVs are normal. About 80% of the vacationers are Russian speakers, but only the girl in the children's room speaks Russian and the girl who conducts beach fitness and dancing
I promised my friends to leave a detailed review of the hotel. The European standard of cleanliness and order. Daily room cleaning. Excellent food: I am interested in olives, cheese of various types and herbs, watermelons and melons, hot meat or fish (usually fillets), baked goodies and desserts.In the morning, tea and coffee from the coffee machine, at lunch or dinner drinks are ordered for an additional fee. But there's a kettle in the room and you can make it yourself.
The entourage is all compatriots, everyone!
And only a few Arab families who played all day on the tennis court. The big plus of the hotel is its own beach, from the room to the 1st floor and in a minute you are in the water. Location 5 plus! The sea is clean, the sand is smoothed out in the evening by the car, the sun beds are comfortable.
In the lobby, you can always ask the attendant a question-everyone speaks Russian, there is also a souvenir stand with Dubai chocolate and Burj Khalifa. During our visit, the "Christmas tree, light up!" show was nicely organized in the pool area with cookies and canapés.The staff tries to please me, it's obvious, there is a 24-hour taxi service, I came over to take me to Al Noor island to watch the butterflies, and I went. I already had a business card from this service with me a year ago, but I hailed a taxi myself, as soon as I look at the highway, a car immediately pulls up out of the ground. There is a daily round-trip transfer to the shopping center.
There is also a pleasant woman sitting in the lobby, a little distracted, but she sends information about the tour and the meeting time to your phone immediately. You can order anything you want to watch through it. She's organizing. There are freelance drivers in her environment, they will take you, they will bring you, the amount is fixed, you do not need to add traffic jams.
When checking into the room, a small incident happened-we were placed with a sea view, not city view, as indicated on the voucher, and the next morning they said that we would be transferred to a room without a sea view, according to the voucher. Our attempts to prove that this was a deterioration of conditions, and we should have been immediately placed in the "city view" room were unsuccessful. We spent half the day packing our suitcases and finally settled in at 3 p.m.
That's the story.
The girl Victoria apologized to us on behalf of the hotel.
M.B. Should I have paid extra? I don't know.
Otherwise, I definitely recommend the hotel for its proximity to the sea and good cuisine.
We were at the end of October 2024, I recommend the hotel, a good atmosphere, all of our own (95 percent of Russian-speaking vacationers) many have been to this hotel several times already, the food is fine, we ate breakfast lunch, once moved to dinner and were amazed by the queue at the restaurant, it's good that we already had dinner inside) Drinks are given only for breakfast, but you can drink tea and coffee in the room with watermelon, had dinner in the city, there is a cafe and a hypermarket and McDonald's nearby, the staff is responsive. We arrived early and did not immediately check in because all the rooms were occupied, I offered no money anyway, in general we stopped by at 14.30, but probably we could have done it earlier because the keys were already waiting for us, the beach was small but cozy, there was a storm of day 4, the lifeguard did not let us go far into the sea, everyone went swimming to the left of the beach m 100 there is a beach for everyone) water. The temperature is what you need, the waves like in Goa are the same cool in general, we played volleyball with the Iranians, the playground is good, there is a large tennis court, through the application of the barselo hotel you can sign up for a free transfer to Dubai mall there and at 15 from there at 21
The chefs are excellent, the dishes are always fresh.
There are no problems with nutrition at all. The first line, the beach is clean, the sand is white. The pool is just awesome, I don't want to go out. The staff is very friendly. They will always help, they will tell you what you need, they will advise you. The rooms are clean, cleaned in good faith. Would I have come here again? I will answer without hesitation-YES!.
Nice hotel
The rooms have been recently renovated.
Room cleaning and towel change every day.
The variety of food is 3/5, the dishes are repeated. The food quality and taste are great. The chef is in the restaurant every meal, supervises the employees.
The reception staff is responsive, always ready to help, answer questions.
The staff at the hotel speaks a little Russian.
The beach is flat and sandy. Ideal for families with small children
Not a big cozy hotel, with very tasty food!The room had a view of the city, and in the morning, at sunrise, with a cup of coffee, you can enjoy a beautiful view from the balcony!Room cleaning every day!The water in the pool is good, hot water in the Jacuzzi, the beach is smooth and clean!It is convenient to get to Dubai, there is a car station in Sharjah, a ticket of 12 dirhams,30 minutes to the metro!
I really liked the hotel, the food is very tasty and varied, the beach is gorgeous, the staff even speaks a little Russian - which is very nice, the room is spacious
And it was incredibly pleasant when I was congratulated on my birthday 🥰🥰🥰
A magnificent hotel that you want to come back to again and again. The cleanest beach with clear water, friendly staff who will understand you in any language. The buffet is varied and very tasty. We will be happy to come back here in the future.
Very nice hotel, clean, first line, beautiful beach, delicious cuisine! Animators Anastasia and Tatiana will never let you get bored. All the staff are very friendly and always try to help everyone. Definitely return it, thank you!
I stayed at this hotel for seven days. Hotel 4". But all services are 5*. Large rooms, clean linen, working plumbing, clean swimming pool, friendly staff, respect for the chef - everything is very tasty, original serving of snacks.
And of course the coastline is not big, but it is very clean, and there is always a place to hide from the bright sun! I recommend it :)
The only advantage of this hotel is the beach, especially for children. Like in Anapa, approximately. The kitchen has an average of 4 hot dishes, all with local spices. There is no food for children. We lived in a boar's room, plus it's a separate exit, but in fact it's creepy, like in a crypt. The service is normal. Upon arrival, the toilet was broken, the water flowed non-stop and the toilet seat was broken, 2 hours and repaired. Nearby there is a huge supermarket, McDonald's, etc. Comparing with other 4* hotels in the UAE, I will make a choice not in favor of this hotel. And well, 95% of the guests are our fellow citizens from Russia. The reception understands Russian.
We were a family in November 2024.The beach and the sea are gorgeous.The rooms are clean, cleaning is daily, The staff is attentive and very friendly, the territory is not very large but everything is comfortable and clean.Ideal for a relaxing beach holiday.
We spent a wonderful vacation in the Emirates, we did not make a mistake with the choice of a hotel. The advantages of the hotel: delicious, varied food, high-quality juices and smoothies, friendly atmosphere, a gorgeous beach with clear water and pleasant sand. The sun beds are good, not cheap, it is possible to book a Balinese bed for sunbathing. Disadvantages: the renovation took place only on the upper floors, we were moved into old rooms that need renovation. There are two Russian-speaking girls at the reception, you can solve any problems and ask questions. The hotel is located near Dubai, so it's not long to get to the excursions. We definitely recommend it, but renovation of the remaining rooms is necessary.
We had a rest in March 2024. 2 adults and 3 children. The hotel is nice, quiet and peaceful. There is no loud music, the entire hotel infrastructure is within walking distance. There are connect rooms for large families. We lived on the 1st floor, side sea view. The room was nice, but there was dampness. Meals were taken 2 times a day, you can change dinner with lunch. We liked the lunches more than the dinners. Everything is delicious, but drinks are only included at breakfast. I went to this hotel across the sea, beautiful and boundless, and I want to say the sea is there without a similar thing. The approach is very smooth, convenient for children.
I really enjoyed my vacation. A clean beach. Polite staff. Special thanks to the animator girls Oksana and Anastasia for the excellent program! Water aerobics is awesome. Dancing is super! Mafia unites! Keep it up !
Great hotel, I really liked it. Rooms, food, service, everything is at a good level. The sea is gorgeous! The slide in the pool is not working, it is under reconstruction. The hotel has just been renovated. Everything is clean and comfortable!
The most important of the advantages: I really liked the beach, the sand, umbrellas, sun beds are all there, towels are no problems. The room is renovated, clean, pleasant. The food is good, the service is excellent. The room is cleaned perfectly, towels are changed every day. TAPAS and SHIVA employees distinguished themselves. Of the cons: we checked into the room with a delay at 15:40. We asked for a room so that there would be less noise, because we are pensioners, but we provided a room opposite the ventilation, it is impossible to go out on the balcony. And it's noisy in the room. The second disadvantage: draining water into the sewer in the shower cabin is bad. And I would also like to note that the restaurant has a small assortment of dried fruits and vegetables. These disadvantages did not spoil our rest. Basically everything is fine, and the sea is just lovely.
Nice hotel, quiet and peaceful. There is no alcohol, respectively, there are no drunken, inadequate tourists. Suitable for family holidays. The restaurant is great, everything is very tasty. Cleaning every day, all the declared accessories are there.
I liked the hotel, the rooms are nice and modern. Cleaning every day. The food is decent and delicious. It's just that if you're eating and waiting for something like Rixos there, then you have to understand that it won't be like that here.
And so super, there is the first line on the shore, there are always enough sun beds, the pool is warm, and the Jacuzzi is full of relaxation, hot 🔥 😁
For your money, a completely good hotel.
Said very good!!!
The animation is super!!! Oksana and Anastasia are very sincere!!! Exercise, dancing, darts, a healthy back!!!!!!! Yoga, mini disco, bocato!!!!!! We are thrilled!!!! The sea, the sun and the sand are divine
We had a rest in September 2024. The water in the bay is +35. We rested on the beach, and then went to the pool to cool off a little. The beach is clean. At the moment, the hotel is undergoing renovation of 3 floors. The rest have already been done. The hotel is located on the first line, all bath accessories are provided. Towels are changed every day. Bed every 3 days. Beach towels are provided both in the morning and after lunch by cards. There are enough deck chairs for everyone. Friendly staff everywhere. They will always help. We took an excursion and accordingly did not have time for dinner that day, we were given a ticket for lunch on the day of departure. You can also arrange a 1.5-hour late check-out for free on the day of departure. Meals were taken full board. The food is fresh, there was no poisoning, as well as heartburn, and this is an indicator for me. The staff of the Meena restaurant are very friendly. The chef is present at the restaurant every day except weekends. All drinks are free for breakfast, but for lunch and dinner they are already for money. As the old-timers of this hotel used to say, everything was included, but now there is no such thing, or rather there is, but this bracelet for drinks also needs to be redeemed.
We had a family vacation in November 2024. This is our first time in this hotel, the warm sea is nearby. The animators are doing their best, the cleaning guys are also doing their best, especially Sajjad. We were even settled a little earlier, which was a pleasant surprise
Thanks for the animation.Anastasia makes dancing in the water super gorgeous!!! Water dancing class!! After the first session with my back, I felt light, but I have injuries and really enjoyed the lesson with Oksana and her rehabilitation method!!!!the body is completely relaxed!!! In general, I recommend everyone to participate!and the hotel is good!!!
We stayed at this hotel in October 2024. An honest first line (seashore), a very clean beach (from evening to late at night, with flashlights, the slightest debris is removed and everything is leveled with a rake). The food is good for the UAE (not a huge selection of dishes, but everything is of high quality), for children there is always porridge in the morning (lunch and dinner are more difficult for children - there are no separate dishes), for adults in general meat, fish, chicken always plus daily dishes from the chef. The sea in this bay is clean. As for check-in (standard in the UAE check-in at 15:00, check-out at 12:00) - early check-in is possible, especially if with children - they check in earlier even without additional payment. The cleaning in the rooms is consistent - clean. An extra bed for children is given a good, full-fledged one. The staff knows different languages - no one has any problems. In this price category, perhaps one of the most worthy hotels in Sharjah.
We thank the hotel for a good stay from October 14th to 20th, 2024, in 523 rooms. Thanks to All the staff of the hotel, as well as at the reception ALAA, very polite, smiling, always ready to help! We rest 5 times in this hotel, we will definitely come back!

Great hotel, I recommend it! 👍
We had a rest in November-December 2023.
Super!
I liked everything: own separate beautiful clean beach, clean water, excellent sand, good sun beds (not cheap plastic), beach towels, several relaxation areas by the sea under palm trees and umbrellas, an outdoor cafe-bar with cocktails and fruits, a large swimming pool, Jacuzzi, water slide, fitness club, excellent animators, yoga, water gymnastics, tennis, water polo...It's not boring.
The room on the 2nd floor was slightly tired, it was immediately replaced by another beautiful room with a fresh renovation and sea view on the 4th floor without additional charges and unnecessary questions. The hotel was loaded to the brim and this is not surprising, there is a lot of demand for it, but the staff at the hotel is doing a great job. There was enough for everyone, and sun beds, and food, and a place in the pool...It was not boring, we held a lot of events, it was fun. The cleaning is good everywhere and the beach and the rooms are clean everywhere. If you tip for cleaning the room, then you are a super customer, the attention to you will be off the scale. There is plenty of drinking water in the rooms, they will bring as much as you need, if not enough, they will add it, the bar will be filled at your request. The food is excellent, the chefs try their best, they cook delicious and varied. We rested for two weeks, took breakfast and dinner, overeated ... (dinner can be changed to lunch at your request, if, for example, you leave in the evening for a restaurant or shopping ...) The hotel lobby is spacious with sofas, armchairs and a large outdoor terrace overlooking the sea and the pool. The hotel has a pharmacy, shops with jewelry, beach accessories, souvenirs and even a fur salon. There are shops within walking distance of the hotel. There are two huge markets about 35-40 minutes walk from the hotel, you can take a taxi, of course, but we walked, it's more interesting, there is something to see, everything is clean. Be sure to visit the markets, it is oriental exotic and very interesting. At the clothing market, which is on the right side of the road there is a currency exchanger, the exchange rate is excellent. There is something to buy and something to see. To the right of the road there is a clothing and gold market, to the left there is a grocery store.
