📍 Bluewaters Island, Dubai
★★★★★ 9.8 (51 reviews)

"Truly outstanding. Had a great 4-night stay with family here at Banyan Tree Bluewaters. The location is awesome, the location is walkable to Marina Beach and all the shops/restaurant via the bridge, and at night, it was a very pleasant walk. The hotel's facilities are awesome, smells good, refreshing, but relaxing everywhere. That really reminds me of Bali. The pools are nice and my kids really enjoyed it. The restaurants, especially Aliseezee (?), are so good and upscale. I had a half-board package and i think it's totally worth it. Would definitely be back to Banyan Tree, either in Dubai or other locations."

Ramada Hotel & Suites by Wyndham Dubai JBR ★★★★
"Had such a wonderful stay at Ramada JBR. Special thanks to receptionist Mohammed for kindly allowing us to upgrade to a better room and making our stay extra comfortable. Huge appreciation as well to Manager Sam for guaranteeing us a late check-out until 4pm, which really helped us enjoy our trip without rushing. And thank you to Myo for the excellent service and assistance throughout our stay as a waiter. Your hospitality truly made our experience memorable. Highly recommended!"

Getting to and Around Dubai

Dubai has two main airports: Dubai International Airport (DXB) and Al Maktoum International Airport (DWC), also known as Dubai World Central. DXB is the city’s primary hub for international flights, while DWC is growing rapidly with plans to become one of the largest airports in the world.

Dubai International Airport (DXB): Located about 3.1 miles (5 km) east of the city centre, DXB is the main gateway for global travellers and one of the busiest airports worldwide. It offers multiple terminals, extensive passenger facilities, and is well-connected to the city by metro, taxis, and buses.

Al Maktoum International Airport (DWC): Situated around 31 miles (50 km) southwest of central Dubai, DWC is the city’s second international airport. Still expanding, it currently serves fewer flights but has ambitious plans to become the world’s largest airport, with future operations including Emirates and Flydubai. Transport options include taxis, buses, and ride-hailing services.

Want to start or end your Dubai trip with ease? Staying at a hotel with shuttle services can save time and increase comfort, especially for early morning flights or late night arrivals.
