Opened in 2024, One&Only One Za’abeel is Dubai’s first “vertical resort,” housed in a striking dual-tower structure linked by The Link, a 230-meter cantilevered boulevard. Located in Za’abeel, near Downtown Dubai, its 229 rooms and suites, starting at 65 square meters, feature glass walls with Burj Khalifa views. Grand suites include separate dressing rooms and standalone tubs.
Atlantis The Palm, opened in 2008 on the crescent of Palm Jumeirah, is a 1,539-room ocean-themed resort. Its 46-hectare site blends luxury with family-friendly adventure, anchored by the Aquaventure Waterpark, the world’s largest with 105 slides. The Lost Chambers Aquarium, home to 65,000 marine animals, offers underwater views in select suites.
Perched on an artificial island off Jumeirah Beach, the Burj Al Arab Jumeirah, opened in 1999, redefined luxury hospitality. Its sail-shaped silhouette, stretching 321 meters, is a global symbol of Dubai’s opulence. The hotel’s 198 duplex suites, starting at 170 square meters, feature gold-leaf accents, Hermès toiletries, and 24-hour butler service.
