An extravagant vacation

#resorts

While this wasn't purely a vacation. I did manage to spend two extra nights on my own after a work related commitment. This resort sits at the center of Dubai’s stunning Palm Island, also known as Palm Jumeirah. It is actually a man made island. There’s no shortage of luxury stay options and grand themes overkill hotels to pick in Dubai.

As a single traveler it did pick all the boxes for my usual requisites. But this is more of a family resort. I cam imagine with so much to do and how comfortable it is, makes sense for majority of the crowd being family holiday goers. A taxi from the airport took me about half an hour to get to the resort.

Speaking of the room, I picked the starter offering among the room options, always leaves a scope for upgrades. Priced already above a 1000 dollars, I can only imagine the level and comfort of the stay offered in higher segments like the Imperial Club rooms, suites, and signature suites. They are known to include underwater suites that feature floor-to-ceiling glass walls through which you can admire marine life swimming all around you.

The stay experience was satisfactory. I mean I would sound repetitive if I go through the details of it. The customers care was attentive and looked after my needs well. I even checked in an hour sooner. The lobby area is very grand and at the same time Disney land like. This sense of overwhelm and grandeur I have noticed in many Chinese hotels and resorts too. And it works for their tourists. I wouldn't mind simplicity.

I did check out the fitness center, the Awaken Spa, several pools and beaches, the Aquaventure Waterpark, the Lost Chambers Aquarium etc. They have two massive pools. The beaches and pools had plenty of open chairs and private cabanas for rent.#resorts #dubai #come_to_dubai #jumeirah
