City living meets Nordic design at this high-rise apartment we found nestled between Dubai Marina and Palm Jumeirah. This place is far from just a nifty bolthole, offering a wealth of luxury amenities including a private beach, perfect for topping up your tan as you gaze out at Dubai’s most iconic landmarks. Mingle with your fellow residents by the outdoor pool or head upstairs and unwind in your private living quarters where you’ll find plenty of plush seating to sink into after a day of sightseeing. Oh, and both bedrooms boast direct terrace access, so there won’t be any arguments about who has the better room. Ideal. When it comes to getting out and about, you’re in a perfect position for exploring all the city has to offer. Shop ‘til you drop at Dubai Mall – a short cab ride away – or make your way to Dubai Marina for a relaxing stroll by the waterside. Or, if you fancy an evening of glitz and glamour, hop across to Palm Jumeirah for an evening meal at one of the Gulf’s best restaurants.
