The signature feature here is a pirate-boat aqua play zone with slides that toddlers and young children genuinely love, and it sets the tone for the whole resort: playful, colourful and clearly built with families in mind rather than couples. Beyond that there is a proper kids' club, a private beach on Al Marjan Island, family rooms that are easy to book, and a handful of restaurants that cover the basics without fuss. An all-inclusive option is available. It sits comfortably in the mid-range on Al Marjan, offering resort facilities without the price tag of the flagship five-stars next door.
Our verdict
A smart mid-range choice for families with toddlers or young children who will be won over by the pirate-boat play area alone. Ask for a family room close to the play zone so nap-time retreats are quick.
The rooms
Bright, family-friendly rooms with connecting options and family suites, most within easy reach of the pirate-boat play area and the beach. Cots and high chairs are provided as standard, and the warm DoubleTree welcome, a chocolate chip cookie at check-in, is a nice first impression for kids after a long flight.

What is the pirate-boat area exactly?
It is a dedicated water play zone built around a pirate-ship structure, with slides and splash features aimed at toddlers and young children, separate from the resort's main pools.
Is this hotel all-inclusive?
An all-inclusive board is offered as an option alongside other rate types like bed and breakfast or half-board, so check which one you are booking if a fixed food budget matters to you.
