One&Only Royal Mirage

A verdant 65-acre reprieve on Jumeirah Beach with interiors fit for Arabian royalty.

Stuffy. All ages can frolic in the surf with loaner Hobie Cats, kayaks and water skis right on site.

If your room feels like part of a palace, that’s by design. Even the “starter” rooms here are generously sized (read: upwards of 500 square feet), with ornately patterned velvet upholstery, walk-in overhead showers and sea-facing private balconies or patios. But you won’t stay ensconced in their blissful quiet for long—not when multiple bars and restaurants beckon just downstairs, from The Beach Bar & Grill (right on the sand!) to the aptly named Celebrities, where twinkling chandeliers glimmer over the gilt gold and tufted-upholstered room and where you can absolutely picture all manner of boldfaced names slinging back cocktails.

You’re nothing if not a golfer, and the hotel has access to Emirates Golf Club—a.k.a. the first all-grass championship course in the Middle East (often touted as one of the top outside the US).

In the spa’s blue-tiled hammam, you feel your soul aglow—just like the candles flickering before you. At your massage therapists urging, you lay your road-weary body on a heated marble slab, then hear yourself sigh a contented, happy sigh. The massage hasn’t even begun, and yet you feel reborn. Isn’t this what vacation is all about?
