Palm Jumeirah, Dubai
One&Only The Palm
Setting
A secluded beach retreat on the western crescent of Palm Jumeirah, with private beaches and a panoramic view of the Dubai skyline. It is reached across the palm or by boat from the hotel's own jetty. The Dubai Marina lies opposite, and downtown with the Burj Khalifa is around 25 minutes by car.
Architecture & gardens
Andalusian architecture meets contemporary Arabian elegance: arcades, courtyards with fountains, terracotta and natural stone. The resort is built low and set into lush gardens, so that it settles into the palm rather than rising above it. Shaded paths run between the buildings to the beach.
Rooms & villas
Two nights are booked in a Palm Manor Premium room of around 65 m². Suites and villas are available for a supplement, some with their own pool, private garden and direct beach access. The bathrooms are generous, and many units have a terrace facing the sea or the skyline.
Dining
STAY by Yannick Alléno holds the house's fine dining. The 101 Dining Lounge & Bar sits at the hotel's own marina and serves Mediterranean seafood facing the Dubai Marina skyline; Zest is the main restaurant, with Italian classics and international cooking.
Spa & sport
The Guerlain Spa offers treatments in quiet suites, alongside private poolside cabanas, a modern fitness centre, tennis courts and watersports from the hotel's own beach. Kitesurfing, paddling and jet skis can be booked on site.
Your stay
Dubai opens and closes this trip: after the first class flight from Frankfurt a private chauffeur brings you here, and two nights later the Emirates Executive jet takes over. A private yacht cruise around Palm Jumeirah can be arranged on request.
