Timeless Luxury and Legendary Service: Welcome to the New Four Seasons Resort Dubai at Jumeirah Beach

The new Four Seasons Resort Dubai at Jumeirah Beach is set to welcome guests with the ultimate luxuries of personalized service, uncompromising quality and the utmost attention to every detail.

Simon Casson, Regional Vice President and General Manager of Four Seasons Resort Dubai, agrees: For those already familiar with Dubais sky-piercing architecture and over-the-top opulence, prepare to be surprised. Our Resort is an intimately scaled, luxurious enclave of comfort and style, in the heart of one of the worlds most dynamic cities.

Every guest room and suite opens to large terraces that take in panoramic views of the open sea and Dubais glittering skyline, and numerous sun-or-stars outdoor dining and event spaces take full advantage of the Resorts incredible location. Mere minutes from all the pleasures and key business hubs of the city, Four Seasons Resort Dubai is an inviting oasis nestled in the highly desirable Jumeirah residential neighbourhood.

Stay in Style at Four Seasons Resort Dubai

Balconies off each of the 237 guests rooms and suites some so large as to accommodate both a daybed and a dining table offer sweeping views of the sea or the citys famous skyline. Inside, extra high three metre (9.8 foot) ceilings are accentuated by full height leather headboards above the new fully customizable Four Seasons Beds in the almost loft-like environment. Luxurious details include convivial L-shaped sofas, shopping-ready walk-in closets and executive-sized desks for business travellers. Silver-leafed bathroom ceilings and Murano glass fixtures cast a flattering glow as guests indulge in complimentary toiletries by Etro.

Many families and business travellers are choosing one of eleven Imperial Suites, each with large living and dining space, two furnished terraces, and easy addition of a second bedroom. Three sumptuous suites on the Resorts uppermost fifth floor include the Presidential Suite and Penthouse Suite, each boasting its own media room, private gym and panoramic sea views from the wrap-around terrace; and the Royal Suite - accessed by its own private elevator - with spa, gym, show kitchen and, at the heart of the space, a grand salon with its own piano, perfect for entertaining.
And, while both of these incredible suites are surely destined to take their place among Dubais most coveted accommodations, there is still one more surprise to come: We will soon unveil a very special freestanding villa hidden in the gardens of the Resort that will rival the very best accommodations in the Middle East, if not the world, says Casson.

Design notes: Envisioned by world-renowned architects WATG, the Resorts sophisticated seaside style is by San Francisco-based interior designers BAMO, with several of the hotels restaurants by New York-based Tihany Design. Arabic design accents highlight Spanish-Mediterranean architecture in this 14 acre (5.6 hectare) Resort, and luxuriant touches are everywhere, such as the incredible Seguso glass ballastraded grand staircase. Throughout, Toronto and London-based James Robertson Art Consultants have curated a harmonious collection of contemporary Arabic and international artists. Taking cues from the Resorts shimmering textures and Arabic design accents, the paintings, prints and sculptures as well as unique mixed media installations express Dubais traditional past, and its inspiring future.

Where Dining Out is an Art, Four Seasons Offers a Curated Collection of Options
Executive Chef Gilles Arzur, most recently of the famed Beverly Wilshire, A Four Seasons Hotel, shares his thoughts on the new Dubai: The appetite for rare ingredients and show-stopping presentations is still very much alive, but were also seeing a return to the simple joys of fresh, genuine flavours, perfectly prepared and served in a welcoming environment, especially among global travellers.

A self-described health nut, Arzur has been sourcing local produce that stars in lighter dishes that delight and satisfy, while leaving guests energized for the day in Dubai. But not to worry he says, Executive Pastry Chef David Peduzzi is a master of indulgence, whether for special occasions celebrated at Four Seasons, or a sweet ending to a wonderful meal.

On the menus at Four Seasons, Arzur and his team are appealing to all palates at Suq, which means market in Arabic, where the open kitchens showcase his modern style. At Sea Fu, fresh seafood with Mediterranean and Asian influences is served both indoors and out. Beneath the soaring ceilings of the airy Shai Salon, guests are invited to partake in coffee and cocktails, light fare and traditional afternoon tea; while the cozy Hendricks Bar is the choice for business meetings over whiskey and cigars.

With the night sky its ceiling and breathtaking views of the Burj Khalifa and city skyline its walls, the focal point of the ultra-hip rooftop Mercury Lounge is the giant glass sphere surrounded by intimate seating pods and private lounges and towers with alcove seating, where guests can enjoy prime vodka and Champagne selections and shisha cocktails to the beat of DJs and live music.

More dining and lounge options to come: Four Seasons Resort Dubai at Jumeirah Beach will also be home to five independent venues in a stand-alone building on the Resort grounds that complete and complement the Resorts restaurants and lounges. Hotel guests and locals will find two different concepts by celebrity chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten including Market Kitchen; Nusret, a grill restaurant that already has a devoted celebrity following in Istanbul and the Peruvian concept Coya - including a private members club - both by Zuma; and the New York-based Provocateur Night Club, a small and exclusive lounge featuring top international DJs.
