Jumeirah Dar Al Masyaf

Set within the magnificent Madinat Jumeirah resort – which includes a huge choice of restaurants, stylish bars, and four luxurious hotels – Jumeirah Dar Al Masyaf is an intimate property styled like traditional Arabian summerhouses. From the moment you board an authentic ‘abra’ boat and sail to your guest room, you’ll understand this is more than your average accommodation. This hotel has an impressive list of facilities, including seven swimming pools lined by palms for privacy and shade. It’s an elegant set-up with peaceful courtyards and gently trickling fountains surrounded by pathways and canals leading through the garden or down to the hotel’s exclusive stretch of sand. Jumeirah Dar Al Masyaf offers plenty of choice when it comes to dining. Everything from Thai and Indian to an award-winning Italian restaurant on its own private pier is on offer, as well as complementary afternoon aperitifs. Upgrades to half board are available. If you’re looking for excitement, you’ll have free access to the Wild Wadi Waterpark™ – five minutes’ drive from the resort – or you can opt for a more tranquil experience within the serene surrounds of Talise Spa.
