Waldorf Astoria Ras Al Khaimah
A striking, elegant masterpiece
An Arabic-influenced resort right on the waterfront with copious facilities.
This large and luxurious beach resort has a graceful, elegant feel. At first glance, the sophisticated selection of restaurants and its decadent spa belie that it’s exceedingly family-friendly—children are welcomed as VIPs here. It’s the type of hotel that sweeps you into its luxury folds, where the service is top-notch, and you’ll feel utterly pampered from start to finish. You could simply relax by the sparkling pools or on the immaculate beach, but there’s plenty to do around the resort, and the local area is adventure-ready and ripe for exciting and memorable days out.
Why we love Waldorf Astoria Ras Al Khaimah
-
Children will love the waterslides, cinema, and kids’ club, but the resort goes a step further with its excellent Little Hotelier Journey (at extra cost), where they can spend a couple of hours exploring behind the scenes of luxury hospitality.
-
Each restaurant offers a different cuisine and atmosphere. On the one hand, you’ll have the formality and specialness of Umi and on the other, the laid-back beach feels of the Palm Shore Pool Bar.
-
The generously sized rooms are exquisitely beautiful, finished to a high specification and in a tasteful palette of powder blue and gold. They all have walk-in wardrobes, oversized TVs, and marble bathrooms.
-
Golfers are spoiled here. The 18-hole championship golf course at Al Hamra Golf Club is right next door to the hotel and stays open at night for golf under the stars.
Rooms
The 203 top spec rooms and suites are quite something. They’re much more spacious than your average hotel room (well worth remembering if you’re a family planning on sharing), with separate walk-in wardrobes and large marble bathrooms. They feel opulent without being overly blingy, and they have luxury extras like Aesop products, pillow menus, and cosy robes and slippers.
Facilities
Two signature restaurants are the showstoppers here – the Japanese Umi with its live Teppanyaki and the sleek New York steakhouse Lexington Grill. But with six other places to eat and drink, you’re spoilt for choice. You’ll enjoy breakfast in Qasr Al Bahar, a light-filled dining room with a dedicated children’s section that opens for dinner, too. Palm Shore or Azure will be your go-to for lunch on leisurely days by the pool and on the beach. At some point during your stay, make time for the famous afternoon tea at Camelia Lounge.
UMI
For the flavours of Japan and dishes created on the Teppanyaki grill, treat yourself to a night at sleek and sophisticated Umi.
Lexington Grill & Bar
The American-inspired restaurant is one the must-try venues where grilled seafood, red meat and plant-based alternatives are grilled to perfection.
Qasr Al Bahar
The Waldorf Astoria’s main buffet restaurant where you can enjoy international dishes for breakfast and dinner.
Azure Restaurant
A casual venue where Mediterranean dishes are served up in the cool interior or in the sun-kissed landscaped gardens.
Peacock Alley
At other times of the day, you can enjoy coffee, speciality teas and signature cocktails.
Camelia Lounge
A spot for some refreshing tea - they have approximately 40 loose leaf varieties to suite every taste. It's also the setting for the Waldorf Astoria's famed high tea.

The resort's spa, resplendent in peacock blue and gold accents, is a luxurious sanctuary. There are 12 treatment rooms where you can slip away to indulge in massages and facials or try the flotation bed and hydrobath.
Children are welcomed to the hotel with a passport to collect stamps throughout the resort, which features games and puzzles. Children are considered at all touchpoints here, from the restaurant menus to the mini robes in the suites if you choose to upgrade. On request, tents can be set up in suites as a cosy storytime zone.
The children’s club opens daily from 9 am to 6 pm, and babysitters can be booked in the evening for an extra cost. But when you’re ready for family time, there’s plenty to do here, including the Children’s Water Park, which has slides and a splash pad. There’s also a complimentary children’s cinema, complete with popcorn.
For a fee, children can go behind the scenes and participate in the Little Hotelier Journey to see the different roles around the resort, from the kitchen and beyond.
