Westin Dubai Mina Seyahi Beach Resort & Marina

Dubai Marina & Palm Jumeirah


A top choice for water sports enthusiasts, this sophisticated beach resort feels like a cross between a Middle Eastern summer palace and an Italian palazzo. With classic furniture and vanilla and cocoa hues, the oversized rooms look sharp yet homey. The five pools include a 150m-long lagoon-like winding pool for lazing (the others are for kiddies and for swimming laps).

The hotel shares facilities, including a water sports centre, with the neighbouring Le Meridien Mina Seyahi.
