10 Reasons to Stay at Jumeirah Beach Hotel

Jumeirah Hotels & Resorts are renowned for their exceptional, 5-star service and guest experience.

And it’s in Dubai that the group’s collection is showcased most widely, with a selection of beachfront hotels ranging from family-friendly favourites to the iconic Burj Al Arab.

At Travel Seen we think there are plenty of reasons to choose Jumeirah for your Dubai holiday. But here are just 10 we decided were among the many motivations to make the Jumeirah Beach Hotel the destination for your next holiday...

1.      Access to the Wild Wadi Waterpark

Guests of the hotel can take advantage of unlimited access to the Wild Wadi Waterpark – a great way to entertain the whole family and cool off under the Dubai sun. Think thrilling rides, lazy rivers, food outlets and water sports lessons all on the hotel’s doorstep.

2.      A private beach

Jumeirah Beach has access to its own two-kilometre private beach. Comfy loungers and beachside dining options mean guests can easily spend a day here. When it gets too hot, the freeform swimming pool lined with shady palms is within touching distance.

3.      Sustainability credentials

The Jumeirah Group is endeavouring to do its part in supporting sustainability with new initiatives and ways of operating. One of these is the Jumeirah Group’s Dubai Turtle Rehabilitation Project, which rescues, nurtures and rehabilitates turtles until they’re ready to be released back into the wild. Green, Hawksbill and Loggerhead turtles have all recently been cared for by the team.

4.      Celebrity approved

When Dr Alex came to us in search of the perfect spot to spend his birthday, it was to the Jumeirah Beach Hotel in Dubai that we arranged for him to stay. With views of the Burj Al Arab from his room and a flashy driving experience for his special day, it’s fair to say Dr Alex approved of his Travel Seen prescription.

5.      Superb dining options

There are dining choices aplenty across the Jumeirah resorts in Dubai. But Jumeirah Beach Hotel is home to some of our favourites. There’s family-friendly fare at Kitchen Connection; views of the Burj Al Arab at Bastion; top-class Italian dishes at Villa Beach; and of course the award-winning pub grub to give you a taste of home at the aptly named Dhow and Anchor.

6.      A state of the art spa

For a chilled out experience few spas in Dubai can compete with the Talise Spa at Jumeirah Beach Hotel. This cosy world on the first floor of the hotel offers a menu of relaxing treatments and therapies, with a spa terrace overlooking the Arabian Gulf to chill with a mint tea afterwards.

7.      The rooftop bar

Floor 24 – named after the floor of the hotel where it’s set – is the icing on the Jumeirah Beach Hotel’s decadent cake. For over 21’s only, here there are panoramic views of the city and skyline, including the Burj Al Arab. On the menu is an incredible selection of gin, classic cocktails and tasty light bites to accompany a glass of champagne, like oysters and caviar.

8.      Kids club and pool

The hotel is renowned as one of the best in Dubai for families, with younger kids being particularly well cared for here. Next to the kids club is a pool for little ones, with the former run by professional childcare providers. There’s a busy schedule of activities to suit their interests too, from Lego and board games to kite building and balloon bending. Additional charges apply for the hotel’s babysitting service and swimming lessons.

9.      Accommodation choices

There are plenty of rooms, suites and even villas to pick from at Jumeirah Beach Hotel, depending on the size and needs of your party. A spacious suite with views of the Burj Al Arab is ideal for two, while families will discover the Garden Suite is just the ticket - just steps from the swimming pool. Or for even more space and comfort there are villas with butler service and a private plunge pool.

10.  Ideally located

Be sure to set some time aside to get out and explore. You’ll find Jumeirah Beach Hotel is ideally located for doing just that. From an early morning dune bashing trip in the desert to a hot air balloon adventure at sunset, the concierge team at the hotel can support guests with ideas, bookings and transfers to enhance their holiday in the UAE.
