Honest review
A sea view is guaranteed in every room — a rare promise that JA Ocean View Hotel keeps literally: every room and suite has its own balcony looking over the Persian Gulf.
The resort stands by one of the most popular beaches in the UAE, and evenings here are a genre of their own: red-orange sunset light over the Gulf, the infinity pool, a new cocktail from the pool bar menu.
It is the only one in its chain with rooms whose balconies face Ain Dubai — the tallest observation wheel in the world: you can watch its celebrated light shows without leaving your room.
The dining is unpretentious but has character: Italian delicacies and a pizza people call the best in the city, plus a sports bar for watching the match with friends. The gym, spa and steam room are free for guests.
Who it suits: couples and families who want to live by the beach and watch the city from above — the club lounge sits on the 24th floor.
