Curator’s statement
We visited the Andaz Hotel at the Palm Jumeriah in Dubai in November 2023 and the hotel exterior doesn't do justice to the exceptional service and amenities awaiting you within the hotel. Infused with Dubai's diverse style and cultural heritage, this venue stands as a lifestyle boutique hotel strategically positioned on the trunk of Palm Jumeirah. This ideal locale sparks curiosity and invites exploration to uncover hidden treasures.

The Andaz Hotel is located at the Palm Jumeirah around 30 minutes drive from the Dubai airport. It easy to access as it is strategically positioned on the trunk of Palm. Upon arrival we were welcomed by very friendly and kind staff. The check-in was very smooth and we could enjoy the perk of the early check-in.
The room was perfectly set up with a beautiful selection of fruits and a card welcoming us to the hotel; this personal and genuine touch heightened our sense of welcome and hospitality. The ambiance in the room is curated to create a comfortable yet chic atmosphere, providing a stylish and relaxing space for our stay.
On the top floor of the hotel an unforgettable experience awaits at the adult-only statement cabana pool. Reading corners and comfy cabanas are there for all to relax within whilst overlooking the Dubai skyline. Connected to the adult-only cabana pool on the 14th floor, the relaxing, tranquil ORA Spa offers many treatment rooms and we enjoyed the complimentary neck and shoulder massage we received from the hotel.
Locale restaurant in the ground floor offers a lavish breakfast service characterised by a diverse and delicious spread. Guests can expect a selection of high-quality, fresh ingredients, and a variety of culinary options, catering to different tastes and preferences. The service is attentive, ensuring a delightful start to the day amid a refined dining atmosphere.
With stunning vistas of the Palm Jumeirah and the Dubai skyline, the exquisite outdoor pool offers a perfect setting to unwind, complete with luxurious sun loungers. The beach below, offering panoramic views of the Arabian Gulf, is an ideal space for swimming or basking in the sun. Furnished with cozy lounge chairs and umbrellas, the beach creates a tranquil and relaxing ambiance for guests. Its breathtaking views of the Dubai skyline make it an idyllic spot to unwind and create lasting holiday memories.
Need to know
The Andaz Palm Jumeirah Hotel is a great recommendation for couples or families looking to relax by the pool or the beach and enjoying the warmth of Dubai's weather. It is also a great place for younger groups because of its proximity to many bars and venues where the Dubai night life takes place.
This hotel has managed to strike a balance, offering distance from the city crowd while providing easy access to bars and restaurant for those seeking that option.
