At the One&Only you’ll feel like you’re the only two in the world. This incredible hidden gem gives you the most romantic sunset views at 101 Dining Lounge & Bar. We also recommend you check out their 3-star Michelin Chef, Yannick Alleno, and experience STAY’s candlelit Parisian romance in the heart of The Palm Jumeirah. It couldn’t get any more romantic than this.

Anantara will give you exquisite luxury accommodations you deserve along with a relaxed beachy vibe. Perfect for the most romantic honeymoon of a lifetime, Anantara gives you the best of on-site resort activities like peaceful sunset paddleboarding or a sweet couples massage. We especially loved the Japanese architectural inspiration in the resort buildings, giving your Arabian palace the added Asian fusion. Make sure to take advantage of the infinity pool and jacuzzi at this romantic hideaway.

Sofitel Dubai The Palm Luxury Apartments

This incredible retreat is one of the many Sofitel Hotels available in Dubai. Their Palm Luxury Apartments are located right next to the Resort & Spa. You’ll find yourself with access to all the benefits that Sofitel’s Resort & Spa can offer with a little added seclusion from the buzz of resort life. This is a great choice for a romantic hideaway right near the forefront of the infamous Palm Jumeirah’s crescent. We suggest checking out any of the dim candlelit dinners for that added romantic touch.
