Centara Mirage Beach Resort Dubai

Dubai Beach, Dubai

Virgin rating

The hotel

This is the first of the Centara resorts in the UAE, and they’ve pulled out all the stops to create the ultimate family themed family resort to make your dream holiday come true. Inspired by mythical Thai and magical Arabian adventures, everything has been taken into consideration when it comes to suiting family trips, with interconnecting rooms and bunk beds available for all family sizes, and there’s even a childrens spa to sit alongside the adults one, so they can have their fair share of pampering too – after all, it’s tiring going down the water slides all day long! If you want to add that extra touch to your stay, upgrade to a Mirage room for access to the Family club lounge, complete with family-friendly check-in and a kids’ play area. It will be hard to pull them away from the adventure water park for food though, complete with water slides, high ropes, and a lazy river – it’s unlikely you’ll see much of them in the day, especially with the E-zone too. If this is the case, sneak away to the rooftop bar and enjoy a sundowner cocktail or a spot of shisha before dinner, overlooking the Arabian gulf.

It’s a wonderful stay in Centara. The experience was remarkable and the activities was quite entertaining. Even the food was awesome as well with different styles of Thai food and other cuisines. The Lazy river was very relaxing and enjoyable for kids as well as adults

Wall to wall poorly behaved children!! Still running up and down the corridor screehing, with parents shouting at them, at 1am. When I reported it to Reception they seemed to think it was acceptable, provided they weren't knocking on the door.

Wall to wall poorly behaved children!! Still running up and down the corridor screehing, with parents shouting at them, at 1am. When I reported it to Reception they seemed to think it was acceptable, provided they weren't knocking on the door. Impossible to access the lounge or bar area due to children running around, things strewn on the floor made it a trip hazard. Luckily the room was spacious and clean. The adults only pool was very small compared with the family pools. Read less
