Jumeirah Beach Hotel

Lazy river action shots.

Hanging in the pool.

Chatting to the Hoggard girls in the wave pool.

Poor Baby Boo had a fever all weekend but was a brave soldier.

Our room.

The view from our balcony by day...

...by evening...

...and by night.

The view from the top of the central atrium. It made me feel a bit queasy.

The view from the back of the hotel. Hot, dry and dusty.

The view from the front of the hotel. Lush!

Panning around.

The kid's pool.

We're big fans of Jumeirah Beach Hotel so we decided to spend the night there last weekend. The hotel is attached to Wild Wadi water park which Daisy has been desperate to revisit so we were all very excited about our night away. Not surprisingly, we had a fantastic time.

Andy took the big kids to Wild Wadi earlier in the day then Bastie and I joined them after his afternoon sleep. At Wild Wadi we met up with friends who were also staying in the Madinat complex and we all had a lovely dinner at Beachcombers restaurant. Once the kids were in bed Andy and I enjoyed a few drinks on the balcony.

The kids were thrilled with the obligatory cartoons in bed in the morning and were even more thrilled when I let them partake in the chocolate fountain at breakfast. Yes, at breakfast. We then took a golf cart down to the Madinat to check out things then spent the rest of the morning in the pool. A late check out topped off a great stay.
