There’s just something special about Palm West Beach. Perhaps it is the seemingly endless stretch of golden sand beach melding with blue waters of the sparkling Arabian Gulf. Maybe it’s the allure of fun and excitement among the world-class entertainment venues that call the strip home. Or maybe it’s the sense of escaping to relaxation while still being in the heart of the action. Whatever it is, you can find everything at Marriott Resort Palm Jumeirah, Dubai.
Travellers lured by the pull of this prime location in Dubai and the most elevated of experiences, should check into one of the exquisite penthouses that are perched on top of the property. In the Royal Penthouse, guests will find chic designs and furnishings that draw from traditional Arabia throughout its generous 1,000 square metres. Inside, there are two bedrooms including a ginormous master suite with a separate lounge, three bathrooms with walk-in showers and large bathtubs that enjoy indulgent amenities, and a private sauna. For those who like to host, the suite is also home to a kitchen, a stylish bar and entertainment area. Or take the gathering outside to the mega-sized rooftop deck area that boasts a Jacuzzi, lavish cabana-style lounge area and oh-so-dreamy views of Dubai.
To the property’s right, sits the Palm Penthouse that welcomes travellers into the epitome of sophistication with a thoughtfully curated experience. An oasis designed for restful tranquillity, in-suite comforts include two bedrooms, three bathrooms, and a living room, replete with a bar and relaxation area. However, the Palm Penthouse’s true charm lies in its expansive terrace. Here, an outdoor bar, sun deck, cabanas and Jacuzzi make for a perfect sanctuary for when you wish to leave the hive of activity behind on the strip. Or check into the Presidential Suite, where you and five of your contemporaries can enjoy a host of elegant amenities including a chic bar, a bathroom replete with sauna, sizable living and dining areas and a fully equipped kitchen.
But be sure to leave the all-encompassing comfort of your suite or penthouse to discover a playground of possibilities, like the M Club Lounge. Here, suite and penthouse guests can enjoy an assortment of complimentary refreshments, a breakfast buffet, an afternoon tea spread, a grab ‘n’ go menu and canapés when night falls over the city. For gastronomes, there are 10 restaurants and bars to explore including the ode to Japanese gastronomy, OKKU and the family-friendly trattoria, Cucina.
For those looking to balance their Zen, place yourself at Saray Spa, where ancient remedies are combined with tech-inspired treatments for a relaxing and reviving experience. Or simply kick back by the palm-fringed swimming pool or private beach, and soak up the warm embrace of Dubai’s autumnal sun.
Book the Penthouse Retreat and you will enjoy VIP Welcome amenities upon arrival, featuring a bottle of champagne, a 60-minute spa treatment experience, luxury transfer services and use of the complimentary one-time use of the mini-bar. For those seeking the suite life, the Suite Dreams package offers complimentary daily buffet breakfast at Levantara, alongside Dhs400 (US$110) credit for Saray Spa and a 25 per cent discount to use at select restaurants and bars. The best in Palm Jumeirah living awaits.
