We decided to stay in Umm Al Qawain after driving up here to watch the last Solo Races of the 2012-2013 season. The usual hostelry, Barracuda Resort was full, so a quick search on Tripadvisor turned up the Palma Beach. There were a number of mixed reviews, but I thought "It's only for one night, so we'll give it a... More

Very unprofessional staff, careless, totally ignored requests submitted along with booking done 3 weeks before arrival date, they didn't care to call clarifying status if our request which was simply to put our 3 booked rooms next to each other to keep kids nearby, they just put us in 3 rooms far from each other, sea view on corner ground...

Palma Beach Resort and Spa is quite frankly the worst hotel we have had the misfortune to experience in a number of years. My husband booked this shoddy excuse for a hotel as a short weekend break (without checking the reviews). From the moment you drive through the gates the place screams 'tired!' Following a very strange check-in routine we... More

We enjoyed a brief stay at this hotel. We enjoyed the location and the friendly staff. Definitely a family hotel with lots of facilities for children and BBQs. The rooms are very large and well equipped many with views right over the beach. There is also a floating restaurant. The hotel does not serve alcohol so you need to stock... More

Probably one of the best budget getaways for family in UAE. They have the best facility because of the open ambiance in the area. They don't usually check group guests coming in, that maybe one of the reasons while this hotel is always jampacked of tourist/guest all year round. They have a pool and beach to choose from, they have... More

Agree with lot of reviews posted regarding the poor service, lack of cleanliness and uncaring staff. Four Star Property (????), five star rates, - BUT ZERO STAR SERVICES AND CLEANILINESS. We went in January 2013 to celebrate our wedding anniversary, but had to cancel our stay due to unprofessional staff- right from Housekeeping to Reception to Front Desk Supervisor, they... More

Very good stay and breakfast facilities.. Good for large groups and ideal for barbeques. They were helpful in providing ice, buckets and extras like sheets, pillow and towels. The chalets are large and spacious and overlooking the lagoon so really scenic and nice pits which are very accessible.also each chalet has parking right up to the room so no need... More

We (20pax) booked for an overnight stay to relax and just have some fun with friends and family. The villa we rented cost us 2380AED and it has 3 bedrooms above and a big hall and kitchen below. We were very happy on the size and facilities of the villa and planning to go back for another weekend very soon.
