With its beachside location and spoilt-for-choice amenities, The Ritz-Carlton Dubai is a holiday resort that you never have to leave.
In a lively part of town
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
The buzzing promenade along The Walk at JBR sits right outside, placing shops, seaside dining, and marina boat trips steps away.
The rooms
Rooms feature private balconies overlooking the gardens and gulf, appointed with intricate geometric screens, walk-in closets, and marble baths.
The pools
Bring a swimsuit.
Six landscaped outdoor pools meander across the gardens, linked by wooden footbridges and a swim-up bar.
The spa
Lantern-lit Moorish archways open onto an indoor reflection pool, leading to private suites and traditional hammam baths.
Gym and tennis
The fitness center provides cardio gear and weights, set beside four floodlit outdoor tennis courts.
At the table
Nine venues range from starlit Bedouin tents at Amaseena to Latin American seafood on the sand at Tamoka.
This sprawling beach resort from the Ritz-Carlton has the look and feel of a tranquil Moorish villa, complete with a private beach.
How it began
Opened in 1998, this seaside retreat established secluded beachfront luxury long before surrounding high-rises came to define the marina.
