My stay at the hotel was a mix of pleasant and not-so-great experiences. The rooms were very clean and spacious, with lovely touches like flower petals, but the hotel is showing its age. The service was a bit of a rollercoaster, with some rude interactions but also standout support from Glenn and Nouf at reception. The location had its downsides, such as overlooking a construction site, but overall matched my expectations. The dining options were comprehensive, albeit a bit pricey. Despite some flaws, the facilities were generally satisfactory.

The service was exceptional, especially the pool bar staff, who were always happy and attentive. However, the location was not up to par in cleanliness in some areas and with some maintenance closures.

The hotel offers a mix of experiences with clean rooms on the beach side, but lacking sunlight in the back rooms. The decor could use a modern touch, although cleanliness is top-notch. Towel arrangements were a nice touch, but a dusty smell lingered. The service had its ups and downs, with a mix of extra offers and exceptional themed nights. The location is convenient for Yas activities and the Sheikh Zayed Mosque, but shuttle service could be more frequent. Dining provides a large variety of delicious options, including enjoyable spa experiences and water activities at the private beach. Overall, a stay at AL RAHA offers a good blend of positives and drawbacks.
