The Jumeirah Palm is one of Dubai's most recognisable destinations, a man-made island shaped like a palm tree and lined with some of the city's best-known luxury resorts. For UK couples and families, it offers a heady mix of sunshine, sandy beaches and resort glamour all in one place.

It is the kind of spot people pick when they want a treat: warm winters, calm seas and a polished beach-resort experience just a short flight from home.

Where to stay on the Jumeirah Palm

Atlantis, The Palm is the standout choice here, a 5 star luxury resort set right on the Palm Jumeirah in Dubai. It is a destination in its own right and a natural fit for a holiday focused on beach, pools and resort facilities.

Getting there and when to go

The Jumeirah Palm sits within easy reach of central Dubai, which is well connected to the UK. The cooler months from autumn to spring are the most comfortable for the beach and pool, making it a strong winter-sun choice, while high summer is very hot.

Beaches and resorts

The island offers soft sandy beaches and warm, calm water, framed by large luxury resorts. It is very much a self-contained, relax-by-the-sea style of holiday, with the wider city close by when you want it.

Food and things to do

Dining ranges from international fine dining to relaxed family options, and resort days can be filled with beaches, pools and water-based fun. Central Dubai's shopping, attractions and waterfronts are an easy trip away if you want to venture beyond the island.

Who it suits

The Jumeirah Palm suits couples and families after a luxury beach break with plenty of resort facilities, especially as a winter-sun escape. It is more about indulgence and relaxation than budget travel.
