Matkat – Shimal

A luxorious hotel, with a lot of green spaces (flowers, trees etc). All staff members really lovely and took good care of us. Pools were ok, alot of people occupying the sun beds, but were still easily able to find free ones. The beach might be one of the best in Dubai. The sunbeds are in pairs and seperated by several meters to the next pair, this gave you alot of privacy. Only a few other people were visiting the beach, most of the time there were only a cuople people on the beach at the same time. The hotels restaurants are ok, the food is good, but a little bit on the expensive side. The price tag went easily up to over 200eur per person for dinner. If you want to get a normal taxi, that may be a challenge sometimes, but usually you were able to get a taxi within 15minutes.
