jumeirah beach hotel?
We're planning our 1st trip back to the UK later this year,probably just before Christmas,and are thinking of stopping over in Dubai for maybe 3 nights on the way.Have been told the Jumeirah Beach hotels are good but just wondered what you folks here thought.
There'll probably be just me,hubby and 15 yr old son as my daughter(17) wants to fly earlier than us although she might be persuaded to wait for us with the thought of some super shopping in Dubai!!
We'd just like somewhere nice to relax for a while before heading on and ,hopefully to make the long flight a bit more bearable.We've been really spoilt as the only time we've flown out to Oz and back my hubby's company have paid business class for us all!
Anyway,any ideas welcome!

if money isn't an issue, take a look at Al Qasr or Mina Al Salaam...both owned by Jumeirah, and both fab...

If you can raise the $£$£$ I'd definately recommend the Burj - costs $$$$$$ but worth every penny!!!
Have a good trip

Al Qasr is nicest hotel I've stayed in here...as long as you don't mind a bit of exercise to get to the pool.

One and Only Royal Mirage is nice, if expensive. All of the others mentioned are nicer than the Burj. Unless you like the glitzy look, but be warned you will need sunglasses to get past reception.

Re: jumeirah beach hotel?
Thanks everyone,that's given me some ideas to begin with.I've always wanted to stay at the Burj but it's SO expensive.
