"Set on the “trunk” of Dubai’s famous Palm, The Fairmont opened in 2012. With its own impressive beach and large rooms with views, it’s remained a popular choice for all kinds of travelers who want a taste of Dubai luxury. The rooms are clean and contemporary, if a little simple. Decor isn’t over the top here—just a touch of Arabian latticework and a few pops of blue." - Melinda Healy, Laura Ratliff
