WORLD TRAVELLER X SOFITEL DUBAI THE PALM<br />

STAYCATION<br />

Sofitel Dubai The Palm<br />

Perfect the art de vivre at this French-inspired luxury resort on Palm Jumeirah<br />

THE ROOMS & SUITES<br />

Bringing elegant French style to the<br />

Middle East, this Polynesian-style<br />

resort is the antidote to the city’s<br />

ubiquitous skyscraper hotels with its<br />

tropical understated glamour. Being<br />

a pebble’s skim from the sea means<br />

you get to sleep and wake up to the<br />

gentle swoosh of the waves crashing<br />

on the shore from any of the stylishly<br />

appointed rooms and suites.<br />

THE FOOD<br />

Meaning "Welcome" in Polynesian,<br />

Manava serves up world-class dishes in<br />

a setting straight out of Paul Gaugin's<br />

Tahitian paintings. But if you're up for<br />

something with more zest and spice,<br />

Hong Loong blends timeless Chinese<br />

recipes to create explosive flavours<br />

perfectly paired with tea. End your<br />

evening soaking up the sea view with a<br />

chilled drink at Laguna Lounge.<br />

THE ACTIVITIES<br />

Water babies are in for a treat with a great<br />

variety of activities on offer. Whether it's<br />

jetting off on a boat excursion, spending<br />

a day admiring the cityscape on a pedal<br />

boat or just lounging on the wide stretch<br />

of private sandy beach, there's something<br />

for every taste. A day in the sun might<br />

wear you down, but a quick trip to the spa<br />

offers soothing treatments and massages<br />

that'll leave you in a tranquil bliss.<br />
