Centara Mirage Beach Resort Dubai

Dubai Beach, Dubai

Virgin rating

The hotel

This is the first of the Centara resorts in the UAE, and they’ve pulled out all the stops to create the ultimate family themed family resort to make your dream holiday come true. Inspired by mythical Thai and magical Arabian adventures, everything has been taken into consideration when it comes to suiting family trips, with interconnecting rooms and bunk beds available for all family sizes, and there’s even a childrens spa to sit alongside the adults one, so they can have their fair share of pampering too – after all, it’s tiring going down the water slides all day long! If you want to add that extra touch to your stay, upgrade to a Mirage room for access to the Family club lounge, complete with family-friendly check-in and a kids’ play area. It will be hard to pull them away from the adventure water park for food though, complete with water slides, high ropes, and a lazy river – it’s unlikely you’ll see much of them in the day, especially with the E-zone too. If this is the case, sneak away to the rooftop bar and enjoy a sundowner cocktail or a spot of shisha before dinner, overlooking the Arabian gulf.

Kids club not very aware of children needs. Very busy. I suggest you keep an eye or mo itor regularly.

The staff, overall, is very welcoming. The facilities are great, especially if you come with kids. The gym is one of the best I have ever seen in a hotel. Rooms are spacious.

The staff, overall, is very welcoming. The facilities are great, especially if you come with kids. The gym is one of the best I have ever seen in a hotel. Rooms are spacious. Special thanks for Karam Shyam and his team for his great service cleaning our room everyday and providing us with bottles of water and tea everyday. It can be a bit noisy at night when the hotel is full. Breakfast was lavish and extremely varied, catering to everyone's tastes. The hotel could offer a wider variety of international TV channels, not just Arabic-speaking. The phone in our room was ineffective as we could barely hear the people we were trying to reach out to, such as reception or in room dining. You hear planes taking off every 5 minutes. Apart from that, this was a very pleasant stay. Read less

We stayed the week before Christmas and had a wonderful time. All of the staff were cheerful and helpful. The pools and beach were lovely, the food amazing. The only thing that could affect your stay is the sound of the planes flying over because of close proximity to the hotel but you do get used to it pretty quickly and it didn't affect our stay.
