DUBAI - LE ROYAL MERIDIEN BEACH RESORT & SPA - APRIL 2004    
                   
   

We spent a few days before and over Easter at this fantastic hotel in UAE in Dubai. The hotel is effectively 3 hotels in one, each of the blocks offering a different type of room and approach. We were in the "Club" hotel, which had its own dedicated check-in and a club room that served breakfast, soft drinks all day, tea and cakes in the afternoon and canapés with drinks in the evening. A real treat and good respite from the very hot sun.

We flew there on BA First and slept all the way. The hotel picked us up in a huge BMW 7 series.

The hotel was fantastic. We had a deal where we could eat in any of the restaurants, and we really liked the fusion and the Italian one. The pool was great and the sea amazing. The other highlight was a day trip to the water fun park. We love them. This was especially good.

The shopping (which Dubai used to be famous for) was not that great as prices are not as competitive as they used to be I believe.
