8/10 Very good

Resort is a little tired. Disappointing to be checked in to a room where the outside area had not been cleaned. Used cigarettes and matches littering the floor. Furniture marked and tired in the room. Staff very friendly and good service, food mediocre for the price. Safari excellent, staff knowledgeable and great to see the efforts being made around conservation. Overall relaxing stay, but some minor downsides that could very easily be rectified.

6/10 Good

Good but not great
Overall the experience was satisfactory. The staff were very friendly and helpful as you would expect from a resort like this. Al Yamm was short-staffed for check-in and in the evenings at the bar and restaurant. Our pool was infested with ants so couldn't use it. We did complain and they sent someone to clean but after an hour or so they were back which was a shame. When sitting outside for dinner, the lamppost hadn't been unwrapped which made an annoying noise in the wind. Just felt like the resort was not as good as it should be.

Magical escape from modern stress
We had a mesmerizing stay in Anantara Al-Yamm resort. The idea of combining both beach & safari excursions is extraordinary. Service & food is what you expect from Anantara’s brand. 2 bedroom villa is spacious & recomanded for families/group trips. After many trips to the maldives, we could see the resemblance in Al Yamm resort between both places. Will definitely be back.

Nice, relaxing, expensive, but incredible island
My respect for the leadership of the UAE reached a new level after this trip - the late Sheikh Zayed was a true visionary - the variety of animals being bred (including endangered species that have been reintroduced to their countries) is eye opening. The service is good and staff is friendly. Good breakfast. A lot of activities for children. There is an old UAE Majlis there that has not been opened to the public - they need to turn it into a museum. Go prepared to spend money. No alternatives available for meals (and no kitchen!!) so you have to eat at the resorts. I hope that the Anantara is using some of that money for island upkeep and animals. All of this being said, there is a lot more untapped potential. Room also didn't feel as bit as advertised (maybe patio included in calculation?) - but I could be wrong.

Too expensive, but nice anyway
We spent two nights at al Yamm, nice villa with a "pool". I wouldn't call that a pool, as it was too small to call it that. I believe the resort is understaffed since things come to you slow.. I advise brining your snorkeling equipments with you as the ones there are over-used and unusable. The food in the three resorts is okay, they are trying hard, I believe it would take them a few decades to reach the Maldives experience.

Amazing stay
Had the most amazing stay at this resort, 100% recommend anyone thinking of coming here to go ahead and book! We experienced only the highest service, all the staff are friendly and go out of their way to make sure you have everything you need and more. The villa itself was very nice and private and the nature drive is definitely not to be missed.

A strange place but worth a visit...
We spent 5 nights on the Island the week after the F1 in Abu Dhabi and, as hoped for, had a peaceful and relaxing time. It is about a 3 hour drive from AD and well worth arranging their private transfer - we had a jag and a smooth safe driver! The crossing is about 30 minutes by boat and was fine, even in relatively rougher weather coming back it was still an OK crossing... The Villas are nice to be in and have everything you could wish for. Room service was great and very fast.

8/10 Very good

good but....
Hotels.com did not make it clear before booking that not all the 1 bed villas come A lovely concept, beach front villas on an island with a safari park that is home to 5 cheetahs, 30 giraffe, onyx, and gazelles which often wonder past your villa make a wonderful sight. It's like Savanah meets the maldives. The beach is not brilliant, yet another Dubai/Abu Dhabi manufactured beach so it was quite corrally, but ok. The only problem we had was more due to Hotel.com than the resort. The room pictures clearly on the sight clearly show 1 bedroom villas with with plunge pools and this is what we thought we booked. On arrival however we found that only three of the beach villa's have plunge pools, which makes no sense whatsoever really, and ours did not have one, and no other villas with a pool were available. Until the resort manager got involved the staff had no suggestions on how to fix the problem. Eventually we were moved to another resort on the island for 1 night and moved back to a beach villa with a plunge pool the following day. We were only there for the week end so this really messed up our entire stay plus ended up costing us aed1000 more for staying in the other resort, which I was very peeved about.
