Background: Regardless of the fact that reflection has been documented in nursing literature for several years and is recognized in the nursing profession to improve learners' knowledge and mindfulness, this topic requires investigation in Gulf countries from a student perspective, as no studies have been published in the gulf regarding nursing students' perspectives on reflective practice.

Methods: A total of 261 nursing students from the third and fourth academic years at one major educational institution were recruited using a quantitative cross-sectional study design.

Results: The participating nursing students reported high scores on the level of all domains of reflective practice as well as on the level of student satisfaction, where 3rd year students scored higher on the level of reflection with others (p = .03), as well as the reflection on action domains (p < .01). A significant correlation was found between reflection and satisfaction (p < .01), where reflection explained 6.87% of the changes in variance of satisfaction.

Conclusion: Nursing students who took part in this study has demonstrated a positive regard towards reflective practice and indicated high correlated satisfaction with learning.
