Situated on the Palm Jumeirah archipelago, this bright apartment is everything we want from a stay in glamorous Dubai. We particularly loved the flashes of teal blue in the living space, not to mention the floor-to-ceiling windows that frame vistas of the iconic Atlantis hotel. Start your day with an Arabic coffee on the balcony then sit down to a traditional Emirati breakfast at the dining table. Before you head out and explore, take advantage of your building’s fantastic amenities. Get your sweat on in the gym, practice your jump serve on the volleyball courts or unwind in the sauna. If you’re keen to soak up the glorious sunshine, make a beeline for your residence’s private beach after bobbing about in the communal infinity pool. In the afternoon, visit the soaring Burj Khalifa, sprawling Dubai Mall and Ras al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary. When you’ve worked up an appetite, treat yourself to a meal you’ll never forget at one of the Michelin-starred eateries on your doorstep.
