Rough Guide
"On the edge of Dubai, around twenty minutes’ drive from the city centre, the Desert Palm is a pleasantly laid-back suburban bolthole."

Lonely Planet
"Feel the stresses nibbling at your psyche evaporate the moment you step inside this luxe boutique retreat a short drive south of town and set on a private polo estate."
Condé Nast Traveler
"One of the city’s rare small hotels, this enclave of 26 suites and villas sits on a 150-acre polo estate whose verdant lawns feel far, far away from the cranes of Dubai."

Our flight is a full one and we’re squeezed in next to the quintessential package holiday family – exactly the sort of travellers our friends had told us would be heading there, and whom I was hoping to avoid.

"This Hilton (not to be confused with the Hilton Dubai Creek) enjoys one of the best beachfront locations in Dubai."

"An ancient hotel by Dubai standards, this resort was located in what was once considered Jumeirah Beach but is now part of the elaborate Dubai Marina."
Lonely Planet
"Right on the popular The Walk at JBR, the Hilton remains a solid choice for a family vacation."

Rough Guide
"This glitzy Hilton boasts lots of shiny metal and an air of cosmopolitan chic – it’s more of a city-slicker’s beach bolthole than family seaside resort."
Time Out
"Step out of the hotel and you’ll be on the popular Jumeirah Beach Residence Walk and have access to hundreds of cafés and shops."

Star Service
"Within walking distance of the neighboring Ritz-Carlton and Sheraton, this medium-sized hotel has little pizzazz, but it possesses all the necessary creature comforts to make it a popular base."
