 Burj al ArabIn the shape of a spinnaker sail and surrounded by the Dubai coastline, the Burj Al Arab sits on its own private island connected to the mainland by a man-made bridge. The hotel prides itself on its extreme exclusivity and privacy, only allowing guests of the hotel past the front entrance. A chauffeured Rolls Royce drives guests to the hotel, where the rooms are all duplex suites featuring dining and living room areas, a 24-hour butler, and the latest advanced technology that adjusts the lighting, air conditioning, and curtains at the switch of a button. There is a full service spa on the 18th floor with sweeping views of the Gulf.

 Al Maha Desert Resort & SpaThirty miles south of Dubai and framed by the Hajar Mountains, the Al Maha is the first eco-tourism resort in Dubai, and it offers a perfect combination of privacy, tranquility, and luxury. Built in the style of a traditional Bedouin encampment but with a luxury hotel ratio of three staff to each guest, the Arabian hospitality is unrivalled and the service impeccable. Suites have sturdy tented ceilings, hand-woven carpets, and Arabian antiques as well as floor-to-ceiling windows that allow guests to absorb the desert beauty. Stone bathrooms have enormous tubs and "his and hers" vanity areas leading to a private chilled plunge pool and wooden veranda. Guests are also encouraged to visit the Jamilah Spa, which features single and double treatment rooms linked by a public area to an 'infinity edge' relaxation pool. The cuisine is a blend of Arabic and Mediterranean influences and the dining area is located on an open-air sundeck amid the red sand dunes and under the vast desert sky. |
