The resort has unrivaled views of Dubai Marina and the Jumeirah Beach Residence waterfront. A free water taxi ride to its sister property, One&Only Royal Mirage, takes around seven minutes, while Downtown Dubai and DIFC are just 30 minutes by car.
With just 90 rooms and suites and four riad-like villas surrounded by lush gardens, the resort has a boutique hotel feel. The low-rise sandstone-colored buildings have Moorish and Andalusian architectural themes, designed with horseshoe arches, geometric patterns, floral motifs, fountains, pavilions, and pools.
