Lunch at Vendôme in Emirates Palace was an absolute delight. From the moment I arrived, the warm welcome and impeccable service made me feel truly special. The setting is stunning, with elegant interiors and a beautiful outdoor terrace overlooking the gardens. The buffet offered an incredible variety, from fresh seafood to flavorful Middle Eastern dishes, all beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. I couldn’t resist indulging in the desserts—they were simply exquisite! The staff was attentive and friendly, making sure everything was perfect. It was a fantastic dining experience, and I’ll definitely be returning for another memorable meal.

I had the pleasure of enjoying afternoon tea at the Mandarin Oriental, and it was absolutely divine. The ambience was sophisticated and inviting, setting the perfect tone for a relaxing afternoon. The food was impeccable, but my favorite dish by far was the duck with cherry. Every bite was a delight. Dino's service was amazing—he was attentive, ensured we were kept informed of each part of our meal, and made sure we were well taken care of throughout our experience. Highly recommend this to anyone looking to indulge in a luxurious and memorable tea time.

We had an amazing even better than expected 3 nights stay. Wonderful hotel and grounds, exceptional staff and service, fantastic rooms and great breakfast. We can highly recommend to spoil yourself and stay a few nights in this hotel.
Things we particularly liked:
- Amazing staff that goes the extra mile to make the guests happy
- Stunning and well maintained hotel and grounds
- Amazing breakfast with possibility to sit outside with ocean view
- Very nice and spacious rooms with great amenities
- Fantastic pool areas. One for families and kids with slides and lazy river and one quite one for adults at the other side of the hotel
- Long and nice stretch of beach - again separated in a more quiet and relaxed area and a more active one
- Very relaxed and quiet atmosphere in the whole hotel
- I got a birthday surprise even though my birthday was two days before we did check in
Things that can be improved:
- Please provide some more bikes to go around in the resort gardens.
Many thanks to Anna Chung from reception for the warm welcome and room recommendation for our stay!
And a special thanks to the concierge Brendan who surprised us with a with a very special service to show us one of the suites late in the evening. This was truly memorable!

My husband and I tried the Afternoon tea at the Palace. It was trully amazing. The hotel is beautiful and very classy, everything we ate and drank was prepared with a lot of care and tasted great. Special thanks goes to our waiter Rian, who was very, very kind and did a lot of explanation during the tea experience. Also to Jim and Triana, who was our chef. The magical golden cappucino was a special treat🧡✨️ We hope to come again soon.

What an incredible experience! My wife and I stopped by this hotel to treat ourselves to a delicious cake and a perfectly paired glass of champagne. The ambiance was lovely, and it felt like a true moment of indulgence.
What truly amazed us was the extraordinary service. My wife accidentally left her scarf behind, and when we contacted the hotel, they not only found it but also arranged a courier to deliver it to our home – at their expense!
The kindness, thoughtfulness, and attention to detail were simply outstanding. We didn’t even stay at the hotel, but they treated us like valued guests. A huge thank you to the team for making this such a special experience. Highly recommended!
