Enjoying a suitably serene private stretch of beach on Jumeirah Bay, ocean views and lush grounds to enjoy them from, The Bulgari Resort Dubai – separated as it is from Downtown by a purpose-built bridge – is a veritable sanctuary from the daily bustle of this pulsating city. That prized setting is one of the main to book a suite at The Bulgari Dubai, as although the city, Burj Khalifa and other high-rise buildings are always in plain sight, they actually feel a world away. What’s more, with a private marina and yacht club, exclusive beach club and pools at your disposal, The Bulgari Dubai can quite easily feel like an entire destination in itself while here.
So the stage is set for one of Dubai’s more tranquil luxury hotels, and the rest of the resort certainly follows suit. The architecture (low-slung by Dubai’s standards) and interior design, for example, both evoke the Italian style and sophistication, laidback elegance yet outright quality that the wider Bulgari Group are known and loved for. That fact, against a futurist cityscape backdrop on one side and sea views the other, is an enticing combination.

It’s no surprise that The Bulgari is a multi-award-winning Dubai resort either, with prestigious accolades including Best New Luxury Hotel, Best Hospitality, Best Dubai Spa and The Middle-east’s Leading Resort, no less. And those gongs are attributed to a heady mix of Bulgari’s Jumeirah Bay location, the property’s sumptuous décor, effortlessly attentive service, plus the facilities and rooms too. Indeed this is one of Dubai’s more family-friendly luxury hotels, with kids’ clubs and dedicated kids’ pools for little ones to enjoy. Meanwhile grown-ups then have the beach club, marina, a heavenly spa and gym, cabanas and daybeds, onsite boutiques and six bars and restaurants to indulge themselves with, between time spent around their own pool and day trips, that is.

Finally, the 101 rooms, villas and suites at The Bulgari Resort Dubai are all wonderfully well equipped with luxe bathrooms, deep-soak tubs, balconies, and for the superior options – butler service, private pools and huge outdoor spaces to enjoy. This is a supreme Dubai hotel.
