How to get to Dubai from Coral Beach Resort?
Tell me, please, is it convenient to get to Dubai from the Coral Beach Resort? We have a 1.5 year old baby, we are afraid of long journeys. Or maybe there is a bus at the hotel that goes to Dubai? And in general, do you recommend this hotel for a holiday with a small child. I will be grateful for your help.

A hotel on the border of Ajman and Sharjah ... to Dubai without traffic jams 15-20mnt (but usually this is rare) With traffic jams, no matter how terrible they were, no more than 45mnt. From your hotel there are shuttle buses to Dubai. The hotel is good .. a couple of times I took guests from there with small ones

Thanks, Alex.tour-guide, are these shuttle basses chargeable? And tell me, is it possible to buy an excursion to the Zayed Mosque? Or do you advise to go to this mosque on your own?
аватар L-Penka66
Shuttle buses are free, by appointment at the reception, but since your baby is still very small and the Arabian Peninsula is very hot, take a taxi, which is quite inexpensive (somewhere around 11-12 dirhams), but comfortable and reasonably air-conditioned. Any taxi driver of any emirate just needs to say the simple password "Nasser Square" and you will be taken straight to the Dubai shopping center. Back - in the same way from any convenient place. Only the password, respectively, will be the name of your hotel and the emirate (for not particularly oriented taxi drivers, of which there are only a few in the Emirates). Have a good trip

Yes, and the White Mosque of Sheikh Zayed - better buy a tour, the mosque will be only part of it, since it is not only the island of Abu Dhabi, but also the capital of the state. Without a guide, you will lose a lot, be prepared to change clothes, which is a must. Well, to photography - there are amazing opportunities for this.

From Sharjah to Abu Dhabi about 2 hours drive. Practical full day tour. Do you think it is normal to go on such a long excursion with a 1.5-year-old child? As for traveling alone, it's fantastic.

Thank you very much, L-Penka66. Do you think the end of March is a normal time to visit the UAE with a 1.5 year old child?
аватар ira_gliznutsa
NatashaS and EmilyUA, thanks for the info. We take parents with us so that they can spend a day with the baby, and we will go to Abu Dhabi. :-)

Taxi from your hotel will not be 11-12 dirhams
only for crossing the Dubai-Sharjah border a fee of 20 dirhams ... I think that L-Penka66 made a mistake in choosing a currency in dollars will be $ 11-12 .. Buy an excursion from hotel guides in each hotel there is a table for such services. the cost in Abu Dhabi is about 75-80 dollars per person with lunch. You can take a taxi for the whole day (about 10 hours) will bring you back ..near beautiful places it will wait. But it will be just a trip .. not an excursion
Respectfully
Alex

the cost of a taxi for 10 hours is about 200 dollars
аватар L-Penka66
))) And yet, I name an adequate price for a taxi from Coral Beach to Dubai. And I voice it not in vain - so that you are guided. You can follow the counter - this will mobilize both you and ... the taxi driver. At the end of March it will be already hot, wandering the streets is completely unbearable - just relax on the hotel territory, move in air-conditioned transport, or indulge in shopping in air-conditioned malls. But the weather is unpredictable - I hope you're lucky. There are not so many standardized excursions in the Emirates, so no matter how much you travel on your own, but with guides it is much more informative, interesting and memorable, respectively, better. The local guides are mostly Russian-speaking labor migrants. But among them there are real stars who will make candy out of even a bad excursion. If you are in the Emirates for the first time, then even a bad one is unlikely to spoil your impressions. There is no Turkish animation in Coral, so grandparents will be more than appropriate. There is a swimming pool, absolutely suitable for the smallest vacationers.

11 dirhams = 3 dollars
I have been living in the Emirates for 15 years and have never heard of such prices from Sharjah to Dubai (I am speaking as a former taxi driver))))

Oh guys, thank you all for the info. so March is already hot, maybe February will be better for us? We are seasoned tourists, we have 12 countries on our account, but we have never been to the UAE, we know what it is to travel on your own and what an excursion is, in the case of the UAE, I would prefer an organized tour, but the reviews of tourists are not the most flattering, it turns out that the White Mosque is assigned only from 30 minutes to 1 hour, to be honest, for the sake of this mosque we eat in the UAE and this time is not enough for me, or maybe it's not true that so little time is spent on the Mosque?
аватар ira_gliznutsa
Animation in the hotel does not interest us at all, no animation will help us if the child is 1.5 years old? :-)
аватар ira_gliznutsa
Dear Alex.tour-guide, only you, as a former taxi driver, know the subtleties: if we are 4 adults and 1 baby, we will be accommodated by 1 taxi car for a trip to Abu Dhabi. It seems to me that it would be beneficial for us to go by one car. It’s just that I have seen in reviews that UAE taxi drivers do not take more than 3 adults in cars. It's true?
аватар EmilyUA
that's exactly what I said for this, the guys from our hotel complained that they saw the mosque for only 30 minutes, and gathered everyone in hotels for a long time (AND WE modestly kept silent so as not to upset them that we spent the whole day in ABU DHABI and spent it like that, how we wanted! YOU decide!!! Still, everyone has the right to their own rest, whatever he means by this rest ...
аватар Alex.tour-guide
For that kind of money they will go ... how cute they will go)
but driving 9-10 hours in crowded conditions is not very ...
when ordering a taxi ask for Innova (6 seats)
Toyota Innova they always have (at the Sharjah taxi office) in stock

-------------------------------------------------
If you are also interested in the beach option, then February for a child may turn out to be chilly.
We were at the end of March this year. The water temperature was at first 23 then 25 degrees (they did the measurements themselves). I can not say that it was sweltering heat outside. We adults were fine. But last November we liked it better. The water is very warm and not hot at all.

EmilyUA, Alex.tour-guide, TanjaYad, thanks for your help :-)

We took a tour in Abu Dhabi from a hotel guide, and we were very sorry that we did not take the risk on our own. Although I already had a complete miscalculation, but the circumstances arose .... and 30 minutes to the Sheikh Zayed Mosque was VERY short, and the guide was very annoying.
The beginning of the tour for the first half hour was interesting and informative, but then the guide was changed, arrogance, arrogance and a little rudeness began to spill out of him. Even to dine normally was not possible (given little time, but in a good hotel). He works in TV and was in a hurry to get back to Dubai by 5pm.
