Insight Guides "Shaped like a breaking wave to complement nearby Burj al Arab’s ‘sail’, the 26-storey landmark is one of the best beachside hotels in Dubai for both families and couples."
Travel + Leisure "Situated along Dubai Beach, the Jumeirah Beach Hotel rises 26 stories and is designed to resemble a cresting wave." Full review
