Locations don't get much better than this. Here, Dubai's towering Burj Khalifa is your neighbour – reachable on foot in just twenty minutes – while fine dining restaurants, stunning sandy beaches and some of the world's best shopping are all within easy reach. The city is your oyster – browse the latest fashions at The Dubai Mall (a thirteen-minute stroll), dip your toes in the Persian Gulf at Jumeirah Beach (a sixteen-minute drive) or savour a Michelin-starred meal in trendy DIFC (driveable in thirteen). Following a day filled with adventure, relax in style back at this sophisticated flat. Plop down on the sumptuous sofa to rest your feet before rustling up your own take on Emirati cuisine in the well-equipped kitchen. Step out onto the balcony for after-dinner drinks – we suggest jellab on hot summer evenings – then crawl into the plush bed for a peaceful night's sleep. Fancy taking it easy? The on-site squash and tennis courts, fitness centre, steam room, play areas and crystal-clear swimming pool will keep the whole family entertained on those days when you're not in the mood to explore.
