We have recently got back from a stay at the Hilton Hotel and Beach Club in Ras al Khaimah, Dubai and would like to say that we were pleasantly surprised with our stay. We were aware that the hotel was quite far from Dubai itself but this was not a problem at all as there were various different ways of getting there. Our package holiday tour to Dubai was full of peace and relaxation so it was the perfect way to de - stress from work.

The hotel had high standards with friendly, helpful staff. The staff at the beach club were friendly and we liked the fact that they brought food and drinks over to us. The suites were furnished very nicely and had an Arabian feel to them. The rooms were also clean and the air conditioning was much appreciated as it gets extremely hot in Dubai.

There was plenty of food to choose from so we always managed to find something we like from seafood to more traditional British foods. Many people chose to go to the the Havana Bar after dinner as there was live entertainment there.

If you wanted to stay at the hotel there is a swimming pool and fitness room or if you prefer to go out the hotel has a private beach club. This was only a seven minute journey away and had a lovely private beach with lots of water-sports. There are lots of sun loungers by the pools and the beach so you don't have to worry about lying on the very hot sand. Towels are even provided so you can leave your towel in the room.

There was plenty for us to do on our package holiday tour to Dubai in and around the hotel but venturing out further was never a problem either.

The Hilton Hotel and Beach Club was located within walking distance of the shopping malls, the local souk and a golf course so there was plenty for us to do. As well as this the hotel offers taxis that you can hire for eight hours a day which will give you a tour of the city with your own personal driver. There was a free shuttle bus to Dubai three times a week but using taxis in Dubai is cheap and easy making exploring in this stunning country so simple.

If you are looking for a relaxing time with no hassle from locals and just wish to chill in the sun, then this is the place for you. We could not have asked for a better package holiday tour to Dubai.
