For those who like to stay active, the gym and tennis courts are top of the line.

Dine at a range of international restaurants, including Japanese inspired UMI or New York style steakhouse Lexington Grill. While the resort feels blissfully remote, you’re within easy access of Dubai International Airport and the city’s famous bars and shopping districts.

We came here for our post anniversary dinner. We ordered the SIGNATURE KAISEKI where we get to taste most of what they have. The lamb for main course is mouthwatering! Charlie is very accomodating...
