Miscellaneous Tips, Dubai

We upgraded our room to a superior sea view for 175 AED per night. It is well worth the money. The room was very clean and spacious, we had bath robes, tea & coffee making facilities, mini bar & an enormous king size bed which was very comfortable & very hard to get out of each morning because you had such a nice sleep. The hotel has two restaurants, the Oregano which is a Mediterranean restaurant and set out like a country farm house which was very nice. Then there was the Singapura restaurant which was Far Eastern cuisine, we ate here twice because it was so good and the service was fantastic too. There is also the buffet restaurant called the Bazaar, this is where meals are served. It is laid out like an open cooking station with chefs cooking the meals fresh in front of you. The Bazaar was highly enjoyable every night with a different theme each evening. Breakfast was amazing, so much choice for everyone, they had Kellogg's cereals,fresh Fruits and juices, Full English breakfast even with Pork bacon & sausages, pancakes & an organic corner.

We enjoyed the themed bar at night called Charlie Parrot's, its set out like a rain forest with palm trees, flowers and parrots every where. There are about 4-5 flat screen tv's so you can watch the live football which was on most afternoons. There is also a live band on each evening & then a dj. Or you can visit the piano bar on 1st floor for a relaxing evening and enjoy a drink or two. The pool area and gardens were beautiful, lots of sun beds with comfortable mattresses for you to relax. It was never hard to find somewhere to sun bathe unlike some holiday's we've been on. It was peaceful and relaxing. Waiters would come round to see if you would like a drink or any snacks so you could enjoy a drink whilst sunbathing or you could try the pool bar which is the largest pool bar in Dubai. We would sit in the pool bar for a couple of hours a day talking to the nice friendly staff.

Every evening when we were getting ready to go out our room attendant would come round with complimentary bottles of water and chocolates which was a really nice touch, he was very polite and charming.

Our favourite bar man at the pool bar was Olee, he is from the Philippines and was very nice to talk to. He called us "His Couple" and we would have some good laughs together at the bar. We were very sad to leave the Oasis Beach hotel, it really was our most enjoyable holiday of all time and we cant wait to go back next year again. Yes Dubai is expensive, but it is money well spent and well worth every penny
