Experience the "Best of the Burj"

Dubai is a city of extremes and superlatives, but there is one distinctive feature about it that easily comes to mind.

Burj Al Arab.

This iconic hotel landmark which depicts the billowing sail of an Arabian dhow has become the veritable symbol of the emirate of Dubai. Its remarkable design and unparalleled world status is the perfect reminder of the city's past and present as well as the promise of its bright future

The sailboat design pays homage to the deep-rooted seafaring heritage of the Emiratis, who were heavily dependent on fishing, pearl diving, and sea trade back in the days. Its renowned title as the world's most luxurious hotel, even getting touted as the only "7-star" hotel, represents the opulence and grandiose that is distinctive of the new Dubai.

Opening its doors in December 1999, the Burj Al Arab marks 15 years of luxury and excellent service with a remarkable leisure package for everyone. To celebrate, the Burj offers tourists, residents and locals in Dubai the "Best of the Burj" experience.

For AED 7,990++, guests can indulge in the the  following lavish offerings:

• grand pickup on a chauffeur-driven Rolls Royce Phantom
• elegant accommodations on a two-story suite with views of the Dubai skyline and the Persian Gulf
• sumptuous dinner at the hotel's Al Mahara Seafood Restaurant with its floor-to-ceiling aquarium wall, aptly called "A Taste of Al Mahara"
• relaxing signature massage blending Shiatsu, Swedish, Thai and Balinese styles at Talise Spa
• first-class services from a personal butler
• full set of Hermès amenities for him and her

It is most definitely the ultimate hotel experience like no other. For more information on this extraordinary treat, visit the Burj Al Arab page on www.jumeirah.com.
