Palm Manor Premiere Double Double Room with Waterpark Access at One&Only The Palm Dubai

The resort is organized around a manor-house-style main building, landscaped courtyards, garden paths, a private beach and a marina rather than a tower-hotel format.

Interiors combine horseshoe arches, carved wood furniture, zellige tilework, patterned surfaces, traditional joinery and rich fabrics in a contemporary Arabian or Moorish-inspired style.

A private beach extends for approximately one-quarter of a mile and is equipped with loungers along the shoreline.

The resort has three swimming pools, including the principal leisure pool and an adults-only pool within the spa area.

One&Only Spa by Guerlain is identified as the UAE's only Guerlain Spa and includes eight private treatment suites and a hammam.

The accommodation collection includes four private beachfront villas, with the largest units offering two bedrooms, private gardens, outdoor dining areas, Gulf views and heated pools.

STAY by Yannick Alléno is the resort's fine-dining restaurant and haute cuisine anchor, with dinner service from Tuesday to Sunday.

101 Dining Lounge & Marina occupies a pier in the private marina and serves Mediterranean-style food and tapas with Gulf and Dubai skyline views.

Zest serves breakfast, lunch and dinner, with Italian flavours and Neapolitan-style pizzas on a poolside terrace overlooking the gardens.

Leisure activities include a private cruise option, guided Arabian horse rides and snorkeling.
