What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
One of the more visually inventive of the luxury chains meets a truly unique destination — Andaz Dubai The Palm stands near the top of the trunk of the tree-shaped, man-made Palm Jumeirah island.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
The private sandy beach borders Palm Jumeirah's trunk, and Dubai Marina is a short ride down the coast.
The rooms
Curving walls and bright colors define the rooms, which look out toward the city skyline or the open sea.
The pools
Bring a swimsuit.
A beachfront infinity pool borders the private sands, and a fourteenth-floor rooftop pool looks toward the Dubai skyline.
The spa
ORA Spa includes treatment suites beside a sauna and whirlpool bath. In the relaxation room, curved loungers face the Palm.
The gym
Cardio and strength machines fill the fourteenth-floor gym, where floor-to-ceiling windows open onto an outdoor yoga terrace.
Restaurant
The Locale
Double-height windows brighten the dining room, where open buffet counters serve Middle Eastern and international dishes.
At the table
