The hype
Travelers love the pool and the price but hate the isolation.
Damac Hills 2 Hotel An Edge By Rotana Hotel
$50-90 / νύχτα
Κρατήστε αυτό αν You have a rental car, a tight budget, and want a 'resort' pool experience without the Dubai price tag.
Γιατί Το Αγαπούν
- Access to the massive 'Malibu Beach' wave pool and lazy river
- Modern, clean rooms that feel brand new
- Incredible value for money compared to downtown Dubai
Γρήγορη Ματιά: A shiny new hotel stranded in the desert—great for a pool weekend, terrible for sightseeing without a car.
Αξιολόγηση από @Ksenia_i: I checked into this spot in Damac Hills 2 and was shocked by how spacious the room was. The sunlight hitting the crisp sheets and that endless desert view gave me the peace I desperately needed. Plus, the personalized welcome on the TV? Such a classy touch.
