Sofitel Dubai The Palm

What the classifiers highlight

French Polynesia sets the theme on the Eastern Crescent of Palm Jumeirah, reaching even the Sofitel Spa's Tahitian Taurumi massage. The 360 rooms and suites open onto balconies over the Arabian Sea, and six pools plus a private beach spread the crowds out. A rooftop gym adds a boxing ring, and FloatFit turns HIIT into a pool workout.
