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.

There are a range of pools including a pop up one on the beach that has an inflatable to conquer. There is also a lazy river that runs round a kids water play area.

Loved this hotel. Although we went as a couple there was a huge amount for kids to do, including a pop up cinema each night in the beach. There are a range of pools including a pop up one on the beach that has an inflatable to conquer. There is also a lazy river that runs round a kids water play area. We had no issues with sun beds as there were ample. There are a range of restaurants on site together with snack bars and coffee shops. The staff at the hotel were all excellent. Check-in and check-out were seemless with facilities provide to enable you to store luggage and change. Taxis are required to get to the Burj Khalifa and Dubai Mall etc but they are cheap compared to the UK. We booked a couple of trips in advanced so got picked up for these. November is an excellent time of year to go as it is a steady 32 degreees and isn't humid. Read less
