Inspired by Old Arabia's traditional courtyard summer houses, we think Dar Al Masyaf represents one of the most private and luxurious ways of staying in Dubai. This is the premium accommodation at Madinat Jumeirah and when you consider that it's set against the incredible standards in evidence at Mina A' Salam and Al Qasr, it tells you to expect something very special.

25 minutes' drive from the airport.

On Jumeirah Beach only 20 minutes from the city centre.

Dar Al Masyaf is a beautiful and exclusive collection of 18 Arabian Summer Houses and 11 Gulf Summer Houses, offering 283 rooms and suites. Each two-storey house is superbly designed in authentic style, set amidst landscaped tropical gardens and reached by the resort's network of waterways and paths. Ideally situated close to the private beach each room and suite has its own shaded balcony or terrace and is decorated and furnished to offer the height of luxury. You can also enjoy private butler service and the option of private dining in your own room or suite. We think you'll find the magnificent bathrooms alone reason enough to stay here, with their oversized freestanding baths and opulent use of rich woods and marble.

With access to all 44 of the resort's restaurants, bars and cafés you'll be spoilt for choice. For something special, Pierchic serves the finest seafood in a spectacular setting over the water, perfect for a romantic dinner.
