Bigger is Better in this
Middle Eastern Consumer’s Paradise
Splurge on a shopping spree at Dubai Mall, the biggest in the world, encompassing an aquarium, ice rink, and the Dubai Fountain, or bargain for gold in the Gold Souk. Gaze over the skyline from the 124th floor of the Burj Khalifa, the tallest building on earth, and explore Palm Jumeirah, an artificial archipelago featuring a waterpark and dolphin habitat. Escape the heat at Ski Dubai indoor ski resort, or bask in the sunshine on Dubai’s beaches.

Jumeira Bay Island
Hands down, my favorite hotel in Dubai. Yes, it is very Luxe / Glamorous, but Bulgari really gets it right. Solid Modern Luxury, yet comfortable.
Of note: I am a Preferred Partner with this hotel. Enjoy complimentary VIP amenities when booking with me (e.g. room upgrade, early check-in, late check-out, daily breakfast, complimentary WiFi, and one lunch or dinner for up to two people per room).

Jumeira Road
This is a landmark hotel, though I feel the rooms are a rather gaudy, but that is Dubai. However, the public guest areas are very well appointed and the pool is a to die for view. If nothing else, stay for a night or go for lunch or dinner.
