Raffles The Palm Dubai 

Gilded glamour

Step into palatial surroundings in an enviable address on The Palm

Raffles brings OTT opulence and exceedingly attentive service, designed to make you feel like royalty from check-in to check-out. Spend your days lazing languidly on deeply cushioned loungers around the beautiful pool or on the pristine beach, waited on by attentive staff, then enjoy the excellent restaurants and bars come evening.

Why we love Raffles The Palm Dubai

  • All the rooms are particularly spacious, each with a balcony and the services of a personal butler

  • The spa is exceptional and features a celestial therapy room and a separate yoga studio

  • The resort features one of the largest pools in Dubai

  • Despite its very grown-up aesthetic, Raffles warmly welcomes children and has a great kids' club and dedicated kids' pool
