Meliá Desert Palm Dubai has secured the coveted title of "The Best Luxury Boutique Hotel in the UAE, 2020" category, awarded by the Luxury Lifestyle Awards.

 

"The United Arab Emirates clusters some of the world's most prestigious and uber luxurious architectural wonders, mega shopping precincts, leisure developments and most importantly, travel accommodation destinations. It’s a challenging market to stand-out in, because of the high standards that abound in the region," the hotel said. 

 

Set amidst a 160-acre polo estate, the equestrian air of this award-winning hotel meets stylish and contemporary design - immediately melting the senses. Lush green polo fields and palm trees offer guests a dreamy outdoor setting to celebrate weddings & corporate events. Championship polo fields are a distinctive attraction, where indulgent tapas, chilled Champagne and creative cocktails are served up fresh while guests overlook the game being played.

 

A combination of villas, suites and rooms are meticulously styled with modern understated luxury. Each accommodation type maximises the prolific outdoor natural beauty and views, and offers unique attributes. Emperor beds, rain showers, temperature controlled swimming pools and skylights are special features that discerning travellers can look forward to.

 

Savour gourmet meals at RARE - Oak Wood Fire Grill, which focus on fresh seafood and prime cuts of chargrilled meat and paired with globally acclaimed wines. Dine alfresco overlooking the glittering Dubai skyline and polo fields for a touch of laid-back glamour. No stay at Melia Desert Palm Dubai is complete without a sundowner at The Polo Bar, especially seated on the outdoor shaded stone terrace in the cool evening breeze.

 

Key activities to note are the desert themed adventures - hot air ballooning and desert safaris, alongside the on-site Polo and Riding School, where guests can discover the estate on horseback and share the experience with Arabia’s leading horse riders and equestrian lovers.

 

Nathalie Cockayne, General Manager, said: "On behalf of the Melia Desert Palm Dubai team, we are truly appreciative of this distinctive honour. It gives us great pride to be recognised by Luxury Lifestyle Awards, and we look forward to another year ahead of delivering a world-class service and experience." - TradeArabia News Service
