I had a mixed experience at Emirates Park Resort. While the views of giraffes and zebras from my family chalet were good and the staff were friendly, I found the accommodations lacking in amenities like kitchen facilities. Although the kids had a great time interacting with the animals and I enjoyed the dining options, some aspects, like the need for renovations, left much to be desired.
