It’s been 10 years since our last trip to Kempinski on The Palm. We used to come regularly when we lived in London, but now we live in Canada and unfortunately it’s not as convenient! Our kids were very small and really didnt remember much of Dubai at all so it was time to bring them back as we’d missed it. Service in the Caribbean just isn’t up to the same standard. We’ve had a wonderful week and don’t want to leave. The rooms are just how we remember them, spotlessly clean and comfortable with big beds and high thread count linen. The staff are friendly, efficient and most of all, happy to go above and beyond. With the jet-lag, we’ve been heading to breakfast around 10.30am and really appreciate the buffet being open until 11am. The food is delicious and the breakfast offerings are immense… something for everyone. It’s always lovely to be greeted with big smiles in the morning from people who seem to enjoy their jobs, as appears to be the case with the chefs and servers. Kamal has been an absolute delight and I look forward to seeing him when we head down. He has taken care of us so well and in seconds is over to move the patio umbrella to give us shade if we need it. Being here during Ramadan has meant it’s been nice and quiet, just the way we like it. Plenty of space at the pool and beach. We’ve also enjoyed seeing everyone arriving for the evening feast in their beautiful outfits! The food looks so good our 2 teenagers have asked to join the feast for our last night here. Coming to Kempinski feels like a proper holiday to us. The surroundings are beautiful, the pool is stunning, the beach is lovely and the views are so special. We will be back for sure.
