I have just completed three nights at Al Maha in Dubai and cannot recommend it highly enough. The redemption is for full board (bar alcohol and soft drinks). Superb value for money, excellent guest service and a unique location. Opinion seems to differ over the appropriate length of stay. Personally, I could have stayed for five nights, even though we had completed all the activities they offer by the third day, and I slightly regret not booking a longer stay. But it depends how much you enjoy sitting by the private pool that comes with all rooms, as that’s what we would have done for any additional time.
I am hoping to return next January, though it will depend whether and by how much the points per night increases. Bookings are open until 25th Dec at the moment for the standard 100k per night.
