Five Palm Jumeirah Dubai Resort

I think that the concept is genius as they managed to use the whole rooftop space in a way, allowing them to offer something for everyone. You will definitely have a great time over there regardless whether you are in the mood for some loud tunes, and social atmosphere, or a quiet place to chill and smoke since they created two different sections for either of. Special thanks to Charles (a member of the team at Penthouse), who took such good care of me during every visit and literally made me fall in love with the place. The hospitality scene over here would be doing so much better if they had more people like you. Keep it up!

The good things is the staff at the hotel were amazing from the moment we arrived. They were on hand for everything we needed and we didn't have to queue for anything. We ate at the BVLD One and Chinese restaurants which both served great food. The beach bar and The Penthouse are fabulous places for drinks. The views from The Penthouse are amazing! Our room was huge, spotlessly clean and had everything we could ever need. The complimentary turn down service in the evening was a nice touch. It was my Birthday during our stay and it was a lovely surprise for the hotel to recognize the occasion. The spa pool area was much quieter than the main pool and a great place to relax. The bad things is the hotel is in the middle of a construction site. There is building work either side of the hotel and in the sea. You also have to walk through a building site when you go from the hotel to the beach. You need to be up by 8.30am if you want a sunbed. The beds are all reserved by that time and then half of the beds are left unoccupied for most of the morning. The hotel has a policy to remove towels if left on beds for more than 30 minutes but this rarely happens. There are lots of different events held in the pool area which makes it very busy and noisy so don't expect to relax here.

Everything was great except the sauna did not work
