Why it’s on my list

Dubai – the home of “The Most Luxurious Hotel In The World” and “The World’s Only 7* Hotel”

This iconic hotel with its distinctive sail-shaped silhouette make this an absolute must do on my bucket list. Built on a triangular man-made island reclaimed from the sea, the hotel and its billowing sail-like structure rise 321 metres above the sea, offering panoramic views of the Arabian Gulf in the United Arab Emirates.

Gold interiors, lush suites, the finest delicacies, eat in an underwater aquarium restaurant reached through a simulated submarine voyage, heralded by famed and award winning chef Nathan Outlaw, a fleet of Rolls-Royces on the forecourt and the famous helipad that has hosted the likes of Tiger Woods, Anthony Joshua and Roger Federer.
