DAYCATIONS"A Palm weekend beach day for AED 175, with AED 150 coming back as food and drink credit."
One of the Palm's easier weekend beach days to justify.
AED 175 gets adults onto RIVA's pool and private beach with a lounger and towel, then returns AED 150 as food-and-drink credit. Children pay AED 99, fully redeemable.
It is relaxed, family-friendly and noticeably less scene-y than the Palm's bigger beach clubs — useful when the actual plan is to swim, eat and remain horizontal.
“Arrive early for the best lounger choice, then use the AED 150 credit on lunch rather than trying to drink through it before midday.”

“Driving? Riva has free parking, which immediately makes this one of the less painful Palm beach days. Walk-ins are welcome too, but arrive earlier on weekends if you want your pick of loungers.”
