JW Marriott Hotel Marina
An Infinity Pool a Walk From Marina Mall
About this hotel
Families basing themselves at the JW Marriott Hotel Marina for a slides-packed break will find themselves in a prime location. While not directly integrated with a water park, its proximity to major attractions in Dubai means a short ride to the thrills. The resort itself offers ample aquatic fun with a striking infinity pool for adults and a dedicated children's pool, complete with a splash zone for toddlers and younger kids to safely enjoy the water. Teens can relax by the poolside bar or explore the direct link to Dubai Marina Mall. After a day of slides, the spa wellness facilities provide a welcome retreat for parents, while the comfortable, air-conditioned rooms offer a peaceful haven for everyone to recharge. The convenience of direct mall access makes dining and entertainment effortless.

Our take
JW Marriott Hotel Marina is the Dubai base I recommend for a family with younger children, thanks to a dedicated children's pool and a kids' splash zone, while parents get an infinity pool and spa. Direct access to Dubai Marina Mall makes meals and rainy-hour plans easy. It suits less a family wanting a water park on site, since none is included.
- ✓Book your stay well in advance, especially during school holidays, to secure the best rates and availability for family rooms.
- ✓Plan your water park visits by checking shuttle services or taxi options from the hotel, as the park is not directly attached.
- ✓Take advantage of the direct link to Dubai Marina Mall for convenient meal options and evening entertainment after a day of slides.
Why we love it

Why guests love itI travelled with just the kids this time, and the direct walkway into Dubai Marina Mall from JW Marriott Hotel Marina saved me from a taxi with two tired children on the first evening. The splash zone gave the youngest something to do while I unpacked, and the infinity pool held their attention long after the mall shops closed. Wild Wadi runs about fifteen minutes by car most mornings, easy enough for an early start.
