    Good location
    Hotel has good facilities, is in a good location and has loads of things to do (bars / restaurants, etc). Good quality and friendly staff but the rooms are small and not great quality. Staying for honeymoon and we were put in a room overlooking a car park. Despite asking to move the next room was no better. So good hotel but rooms not great - thank you to Jahid and Sagar for arranging transport and being so kind!

    Good ambience. Beach with beauty and calmness
    The greatest spot for swimming, lounging, and sunbathing in Dubai is the most well-liked public beach. There are lots of entertaining activities at the beach for all people. A wide selection of dishes from the eateries near Dubai Marina and the beach. The public beach area is large enough to accommodate all the beach activities.

    Clean, safe and beautiful beach.
    Visited Dubai for the first time solo travelling, enjoying the stunning beaches and amazing architecture, the marina beach was situated a stones throw away from my hotel, and was clean, safe and beautiful! I will add if you’re a male make sure when leaving the beach area to put a top back on I made the mistake of leaving with no top on to walk back to my hotel and was stopped by security to put it back on. They’re strict on laws but that gives you a feeling of security.

Everyone is lying on top of each other, the water is cloudy from jet skis and yachts scurrying back and forth. I strongly recommend that anyone who wants a relaxing holiday choose places not in Dubai itself, but in neighboring states. The sand here is good, but you will sunbathe on your towel under the sun. Then you will wash yourself under the beach shower and get into an air-conditioned taxi from your hotel. 33 pleasures, as they say.

Possibility of going to the public beach on sand or grass. Otherwise you have to pay for the sun loungers.
This place is very touristy and even in March there were a lot of people.

There are other beaches that are much more beautiful and less populated.

Anyone who writes that this is a great beach has never been to really good beaches in Dubai. For us, the newest beach in the city, Icelands Beach, was definitely the best. Having read rave reviews, we traveled here for 40 minutes by metro and were disappointed. Apart from the view of the Ferris wheel and skyscrapers, everything is bad. Little space, many people, dirty, we couldn’t even find changing rooms. We stocked up (not convenient for children - the depth quickly sets in) and went back

It's great for the Marina folks. The views of Blue Waters Island are lovely, with the impressive Ain Dubai in the back. But fair warning, it can get crowded and is more noisy compared to other beaches in Dubai. If you're up for a lively scene and don't mind the hustle, it's a great spot to chill and enjoy some beachside fun. Just be prepared for the crowds over the weekend.

It is one of the finest beach in Dubai. It has got all possible facilities. There are a lot of cafes and restaurants. There is an open gym and children play area. One can hire sunbeds and umbrella. The changing rooms with shower were cleaned continuously. The water sports facilities were available at a cost. There was a huge underground parking. Weekend shopping market is very popular with tourists. The sea water was very clean. The Dubai tram was 5 minutes walk away and metro 15 minutes. The newly developed Bluewaters Island is close by.
A beautiful place to spend an entire day...

We thought the beach was great. It may be filled with tourists, but that was just fine with me. The beach has the AquaFun park which you have to do. There are plenty of lounge chairs for rent. They have heated showers for rent. The bathrooms were some of the best beach bathrooms I have seen. There is plenty of restaurants and shops behind the beach. This should be your beach of choice while in Dubai.
