Are you dreaming of a luxury getaway? Of a beautiful beach with the perfect skyline view? In a warm destination all year round? Keep reading.

Dubai isn’t just skyscrapers and malls with ski slopes, it’s much more than that. I dare you to experience the REAL Dubai by staying at One&Only Royal Mirage.

One&Only Royal Mirage is one of the oldest hotels in Dubai and yet it looks incredibly modern. It is a huge property and yet it feels so intimate! It has 3 different hotels incorporated: The Palace, Arabian Court and Residence & Spa. They each have their own pool and their own restaurants. The pool at The Palace is the biggest one and my personal favorite. It is “sprinkled" with palm trees and it is one of the dreamiest pools I’ve ever seen.

Every building has its own pool plus the lovely beach club – DRIFT. Drift also has a pool and it’s one of the most posh beach clubs in Dubai. Great music, lovely views and the cutest beach cabana! If plan to spend your day here, don’t worry, they have a lovely beach restaurant for lunch!

One&Only Royal Mirage is the perfect resort for an authentic Arabian experience. A relaxing time at their wonderful pool. An exquisite experience at their top cuisines: Celebrities – the elegant French restaurant and my personal favorite, Tagine – authentic Moroccan cuisine, Olives – Mediterranean cuisine with a tasty wood-fire pizza, Eauzone – a beachside Asian fusion restaurant with pool views, The Rotisserie – Middle Eastern and European cuisine, The Courtyards – for a magical traditional shisha experience, The Beach Bar & Grill with a lovely beach wooden cabana to witness the beautiful pink sunsets and a few other elegant indoor and outdoor venues.

I had the pleasure to witness a magical sunset from the wooden beach cabana at The Beach and Bar & Grill that also has the best view to Dubai’s impressive skyline.

But by far the absolute best experience was the Oriental Hammam. Oriental hammam is a traditional oriental bathing ritual with One&Only’s touch of luxury. To me, it was an almost mystical experience. It’s a type of experience that shouldn’t be put in words. I encourage you all to treat yourself with this one of a kind wellness treatment!

Whether you’re into wellness, shisha, desert safari or just lounging by the pool or beach, One&Only is the answer.
