The Suite

A palatial residence befitting of the Raffles brand, the Imperial Royal Villa is on par with some of The Palm Jumeirah's famous mega mansions. The four-bedroom property is set away from the main hotel, but has been designed in such a way so that you can enjoy all the amenities. That includes a full wellness center with hammam, scrub room, relaxation area and couples treatment room. The bespoke furniture comes from Francesco Molon's renowned studio, making each of the ensuite bedrooms a picture of opulence. With a private pool and full kitchen, there is no need to ever leave its grounds.

The Hotel

Raffles The Palm Dubai, a 389-room, 25-acre beachfront resort on the Palm Jumeirah’s West Crescent, was officially opened in October 2021. When you first enter the hotel you feel as if you’re entering some kind of neoclassical palace, perhaps in pre-revolutionary France: There are marble pillars, glistening Swarovski crystal chandeliers (more than 6,000 of them throughout the hotel), ornately carved ceilings covered with 24-karat gold leaf and chamber musicians at play. But the atmosphere is not hushed or haughty. Rather, it is attractively open, and children of all ages are welcome.
