When it comes to luxury hotels in Dubai, there are mostly two distinct camps – beach or city. For the best of both worlds, Four Seasons Resort Dubai at Jumeirah Beach offers an opulent location beside the calm waters of the Arabian Gulf yet just a stone’s throw away from the city’s glowing skyline.
Freshly cut flowers in Murano crystal vases and an impressive two-floor picture window framing views across the perfectly manicured lawns to the ocean greet guests as they enter the lobby, marrying statement Four Seasons style with lavish Middle Eastern touches. Rooms are some of the biggest you will find in Dubai, and as one would expect from the luxe hotel group, no detail goes unnoticed.
Each boasting a cosy seating area with plush sofa and huge cloudlike beds, the full marble bathrooms are equally impressive with egg-shaped stand-alone bathtubs, separate shower and exclusive Rajasthan by Etro toiletries. Whether your sprawling private balcony overlooks the beach or Downtown skyline, it is the perfect spot to watch the sunset after a lazy day spent relaxing in a private cabana by the sea. While attentive beach attendants will be at your beck and call, be sure to hit the ‘do not disturb’ button for ultimate privacy.
Housing eight bars and restaurants, food lovers are spoilt for choice. From breakfast in bed to important business meetings, the Four Seasons’ dining experience can be delivered direct to your door at any time of the day, while Mercury Lounge is the place to be for those looking to head out. Inspired by both the French and Italian Rivieras, Head Chef Andrea Lerardi has curated a delectable set menu available between 6-9pm, where dishes including crispy parmesan lollipops, vegetable tempura and tuna tartar are served under the shady red and white striped cabanas reminiscent of the Côte D’Azur.
Guests can also escape the typical Friday brunch crowds at Sea Fu, which instead hosts its beachside Omakase Brunch on Saturdays between 1-4pm, serving up an array of authentic Asian delicacies alongside refreshing sake cocktails and live music.
With two in-house Bentleys waiting to whisk guests away in style, no stone goes unturned when it comes to exceptional service, which, alongside its breathtaking views, exquisite food and subtle privacy, makes Four Seasons Resort Dubai at Jumeriah Beach the ideal Dubai hideaway.
