TL;DR
Guest reports suggest that some Rixos resorts in the UAE may initially serve non-alcoholic sparkling drinks, but alcoholic options are available if you ask. Drinks are commonly served by the glass, while a full champagne bottle can usually be brought and opened on request.
The latest practical update is about the menu range: canned beer appears to commonly include Amstel, while Beck’s may or may not be available, so it’s best to check on-site. For non-alcoholic drinks, travelers specifically ask for mocktails like mojito and piña colada.
Based on guest experience, drinks at Rixos are usually served in glasses rather than handed over as unopened bottles. If you want a full bottle of champagne, staff can generally bring and open it when requested.
One guest report from birthday celebrations at two Rixos properties, including the one on Palm Jumeirah, says non-alcoholic sparkling wine was served by default in both cases. If you want alcohol, it’s worth clearly asking for regular alcoholic champagne from the start.
