Decadence in Dubai: A snapshot of some of the best luxury resorts in the Middle East

October 31, 2011 By itravelnet.com

Often Madinat Jumeirah is unofficially regarded as Dubai’s ‘6 star resort’ – and little wonder, for it’s a by-word for beauty and luxury, nothing less! The look and feel, with its connected waterways and ancient Arabic-style architecture, owes much to its sea-faring past, a time dominated by fishermen, pearl divers and traders. The resort offers a magnificent range of accommodation, from the exquisitely-styled Mina A’ Salam hotel nestling on the edge of the Arabian Gulf, and the fabulous Al Qasr hotel, the jewel of Madinat Jumeirah and designed to reflect a sheikh’s summer residence, to the exquisite Arabian summer houses at Dar Al Masyaf, and the spacious opulence, seclusion and impeccable service at Malakiya Villas.

And what about shopping and dining out? How about the 95 retail boutiques and the 40 or so restaurants and bars of the Souk Madinat Jumeirah. There’s nothing quite like this traditional Arabian souk with its wind towers, lantern lit hallways and narrow waterways. Incredible.

When it comes to luxury, opulence and excellence of service, Le Royal Meridien Dubai has it all. But don’t take my word for it. Check out the amazing reviews on the web. Here’s just the tiniest snapshot…“one of the best hotels I have ever stayed in, staff were fantastic”…“food, drinks and service are amazing”…“I would not consider going anywhere else in Dubai”…“have stayed in many 5 star hotels around the world and this was a very high standard”. Kind of says it all!

Le Royal Meridien Beach Resort And Spa is located on a superb stretch of white sandy beach with the clear blue waters of the Arabian Gulf stretching into the distance. Its location is everything you could imagine. Perfect in every sense.

It has some 500 rooms and caters for every type of traveller imaginable, from the high-powered businessman to the honeymoon couple and everyone else in between. Facilities are simply out of this world with no less than three heated swimming pools to choose from. Then there are tennis and squash courts, water sports facilities, and a club for the kids with play area and supervised activities.

Spoilt for choice doesn’t even cover it when it comes to the food and drink on offer. For there are no less than 14 international restaurants and bars catering for just about any taste imaginable!

If pampering and indulgence is the ultimate when it comes to holiday bliss, then look no further than the Royal Mirage Dubai. Intimacy is the watchword within this Arabic style sanctuary resort and spa situated on Jumeira beach. Accommodation available includes one villa, twenty suites and twenty-eight prestigious bedrooms. Spread over three properties, including the original hotel, the newly built Arabian Court and the Residence and Spa, the Royal Mirage has an extensive range of fabulous leisure facilities and meeting rooms and is considered the most stylish resort on Jumeira Beach.

The Palm Dubai, with a string of luxurious and themed hotels, villas, apartments, beaches, marinas, restaurants and shopping outlets, is fast becoming one of the world’s premier resorts. It is often dubbed the ‘Eighth Wonder of the World’. But however it’s described, it’s a fantastic and unforgettable destination that never disappoints!
