Best Beach Hotels in Dubai

Welcome to the dazzling emirate of Dubai, a destination that seamlessly blends the ancient mystique of the Arabian Desert with the cutting-edge modernity of a global metropolis. Located on the southeastern coast of the Arabian Peninsula, Dubai is a city that defies expectations, where soaring skyscrapers pierce the desert sky and pristine beaches meet the shimmering waters of the Persian Gulf. With its opulent luxury, diverse cultural experiences, and relentless pursuit of innovation, Dubai has earned its reputation as one of the world’s most iconic and sought-after travel destinations. 
Before you choose your favourite five-star hotel in Dubai, read on to learn a little more about this jewel of an emirate destination. 
Why Visit: Dubai is a city where luxury living is taken to a whole different level, and it’s the perfect destination for a pamper-filled, glamourous, indulgent and fun holiday. The magnificent hotel facilities mean that guests never have to leave them but beyond the grandeur of these extravagant resorts, is a world where tradition and modernity seamlessly combine. Wander through the historic districts of Al Fahidi and Bastakiya, where ancient wind-tower architecture transports you back in time. Discover the vibrant souks, where you can haggle for exotic spices, textiles, and gold, and witness the enduring Emirati culture that thrives amidst the city’s glittering skyscrapers, shopping malls and luxury boutiques. But Dubai’s allure extends far beyond and offers an array of outdoor adventures, from desert safaris to world-class golf courses, as well as unrivalled gastronomic experiences. Everyone should ‘do’ Dubai at least once in their lives!
Who Goes: Dubai is more than just a playground for the rich and famous, it appeals to families, friends, and couples – there really is something for everyone – its diverse offering attracts thrill-seekers, culture enthusiasts, fashion connoisseurs, and gourmands alike. Dubai promises to exceed your expectations in every way.
When to Visit: Dubai is an ideal choice for winter-sun seekers. The weather is at its best (warm, sunny and not too humid) from November to February with lots of exciting events (including the Rugby 7’s, Dubai Shopping and Food Festival, Dubai World Cup). The warm and sunny weather does tend to extend to April but beyond this expect high temperatures and humidity. 
How to Get There: Dubai International Airport is said to be the world’s busiest airport by international passenger traffic. And with designer shopping, celebrity chef dining and many attractions it is an experience in itself. It connects more than 240 destinations across six continents on more than 100 airlines. Dubai International primarily caters to commercial flights, while Al Maktoum International Airport is renowned for its swifter turnaround times and caters more towards private jet passengers.
In the Know: No matter how wonderful your hotel is be sure to venture beyond – one of our favourites is dinner under the stars at a Bedouin camp. This, along with a private guide can be enjoyed at the Dubai Desert Conservation Reserve, approx. an hour’s drive from the city centre or if you have more time stay here for a few days. 
Hotel Selection: The hotels we showcase in this collection have been selected by our editors, contributors, or trusted locals based on personal experience or credible recommendations. From the renowned international resorts to the lesser-known boutiques, each hotel must excel in service, design and facilities.
