Bulgari Resort Dubai
Italy-infused elegance sprawled across a man-made island
Sited close to the glitz of downtown Dubai on an island sculpted into a seahorse shape, Bulgari’s latest – a 150,000sq m bolthole – provides glittering views across the waters of Jumeirah Bay. Amid surroundings freckled with Italian design, effervescent Mediterranean gardens and traditional Emirati flourishes, its 101 guest rooms and suites, and 20 villas (complete with pools) are furnished to precision by Antonio Citterio Patricia Viel. Elsewhere, feast in any of its five eateries – Il Bar boasts golden vistas of the Arabian Gulf – check out the spa, its 82-foot pool and its hammam, or feel like a sea captain at the Yacht Club – Bulgari’s first.
