It was just a smart choice for strolling around in Abu Dhabi with reasonable value. The beach area needed more cleaning, which was a little disappointing. Bring water shoes to avoid hurting your feet on the rocky entrance to the sea.

100% recommend for a brief weekend stay

Comfortable room, friendly staff, with a lovely outdoor swimming pool and beach access that made our stay enjoyable, just 15 km from the nearest airport.

Everything went smoothly.

Our experience was absolutely horrendous. The breakfast area was overcrowded, making it difficult to find a spot to sit. Additionally, my initial room was undergoing renovation without any prior notice, which forced me to change rooms. The overall cleanliness and finishings were appalling, especially the deteriorating wood on the entrance door. Quality of food was disappointing, it felt mass-produced and unappealing, not at all what I expected from a hotel of this caliber. Reception was always chaotic with a long wait, there simply wasn't enough staff.

The dining experience was a real feast for foodies! From the freshly grilled meats at the barbecue to the delightful afternoon pastries, every meal was a flavor fiesta. Location-wise, you can’t beat being just a hop away from Marina Mall, perfect for a quick shopping spree!

What stopped me from rating this a 10 was the deposit debacle. They put a hold of 800 AED on my card, and a week later, the refund is still nowhere in sight. I wish I had received updates or responses from the hotel about this.

I loved the elegant décor throughout Rixos Marina Abu Dhabi, especially how accessible everything was. The beautiful sea views from my room were stunning, and the pool areas were well-designed, making it easy for seniors to enjoy.

Could improve check-in efficiency for seniors.

Overall, the service was friendly and accommodating, making the experience pleasant, although the beach was a bit mediocre and there was an overuse of single-use plastic. The room was fantastic with a beautiful view, and the dining options were largely satisfying. However, perhaps more focus on older kids in the kids club would be beneficial.

The hotel offers fantastic facilities with a superb swimming pool, and I appreciated the elegant and spacious reception area. My room overlooking the pool was neat and comfortable, making my stay relaxing. Breakfast really impressed me with its variety and delicious options. The atmosphere felt light and fun, especially with the live band at night and the engaging animation team. However, the check-in process could be improved. I felt ignored by some reception staff who were busy on their screens. Additionally, the dining experience at the buffet needs better organization. During dinner, we struggled to find a table as it was overcrowded, and there seemed to be no one managing the seating arrangements. I was also disappointed with the beach area. it lacked proper upkeep and the service there was weak. Lastly, there were some issues with the in-room dining setup, including outdated QR codes and inconsistent menu pricing. Despite these inconveniences, I enjoyed my stay at Rixos Abu Dhabi and would consider returning for the amenities and overall vibe.

A Memorable Family Getaway

We enjoyed an excellent stay with quick check-in and smooth service. The food, especially at Vero Italiano, delighted our taste buds, and the dance performances in the lobby added a fun touch. Mr Furkan's hospitality made everything even better! A tip, try the Antidote bar for great cocktails.

The staff at the restaurant were very professional and resolved issues promptly.

The check-in procedure was not completed properly, leading to confusion at the pool and restaurants.

would definitely stop here again

We got upgraded to a suite on the 30th floor with breathtaking sea views. The all-inclusive option was totally worth it! The breakfast had freshly baked pastries, and the beach was pristine. Amazing staff and awesome family-friendly activities kept the kiddos entertained. The pool area was great too, and the spa offered fantastic massages.

Amazing family stay!

We had such a blast! The staff were super friendly and made us feel at home, especially in the kid’s club. Our room was spotless, and the view was breathtaking, we even saw fireworks from our balcony! Just wish the in-room dining took a bit less time. Can't recommend it enough!

I absolutely loved my stay, especially the spacious room with a breathtaking city view and the super clean bathroom. The outdoor swimming pool and cozy spa really helped me unwind after a long day. Just a heads up, I did hear some kids playing nearby, which was a bit distracting, but it didn't ruin my experience! 😊
