Probably my best hotel stay to date, completely shaped by the customer service. Czarina looked after us so much and she made our stay amazing which means so much to us as my husband lost his maternal grandmother two weeks prior to the trip and sadly his paternal grandmother the day we checked out which was devastating but I can’t imagine how much worse it would feel if we were on a holiday we weren’t enjoying. Czarina has provided hospitality that was above and beyond and is a treasure to Jumeirah. Speaking to other guests they also agreed. Secondly the kids club staff- they made my daughter feel so special and they made such an effort to find out her interests, I will always remember how much they value children and it is what persuaded me to return. Thirdly the transportation staff- again they were all so talkative and polite and made our trips a joy. They made my daughter feel so happy as she sat at the front of buggies and they made conversation with her, they will be really missed until next time! Then we have the restaurant staff at Arboretum- the gentleman who sliced our bread every morning who was so cheerful and polite to the chefs at dinner time- they all make such a difference and it felt wonderful to be recognised as a returning guest amongst so many guests. Rohit in particular made us feel welcomed and catered to any needs we had. I must also commend our butlers, we did not use their services much as I much prefer ebutler but they were so helpful and happy and I hope we meet them again. Finally we have to mention the Al Qasr security personnel by the flowers. My husband was talking to him whilst I settled the bill and he was so polite and finished our stay off with such a sweet note. Looking forward to going back and hopefully with my extended family Read less
