Honest review
The very heart of beachfront Dubai: Movenpick stands in the Jumeirah Beach Residence complex, practically on the shore of the Persian Gulf. Around it — authentic shops, fine-dining restaurants and an open-air cinema, all a few minutes away.
Every room has a balcony with a full or partial view of the Gulf; inside — a Smart TV, free Wi-Fi, air conditioning and spacious bathrooms. It is worth paying extra for an upgraded room, executive category or suite — they come with lounge privileges.
The restaurants are a reason in themselves: many hold culinary awards. Soul does New York cuisine — as though you were in Manhattan, not Dubai; we also recommend The Talk, and for sports broadcasts and billiards, West Beach.
For the daytime rhythm — a temperature-controlled outdoor pool, a gym and a wellness spa.
A good choice for anyone who wants to live by the sea yet in the thick of city life: the beach, the restaurants and the JBR promenades are all close by.
