"We were at the JW Marriott Hotel Marina in December 2025 for 6 nights. (two adults and two children) including New Years Eve. Our stay was absolutely FANTASTIC! Beautiful hotel, excellent location and the staff was superb! Baha who was the manager at the restaurant made sure our meals were perfect and even asked if my children had special requests for their Chef Sharuk who was so good! Every meal was different and a variety of cuisines daily! We were truly impressed! Nikita and Alffrin...
