One&Only The Palm

I have spent the last 3 weeks at this hotel, for some time of healing and personal renewal, and I can’t say enough good things. The facility is just amazing - my room is so private and I just, and maybe 5 steps to the private beach. The pools and beach are just beyond. The service level here is extraordinary. But what really stands out is the spirit of welcoming hospitality. In a moment of internal and external turmoil, I truly have been made to feel at home, whether the hotel was packed with guests or quiet due to the war. I wish I could remember the names of all the people who have helped and supported me, but I will call out a few - Sujith helping me with everything I could imagine, Trey, Santosh, Hassan, Donald and so many others at the restaurants; Becky, Jonalyn, Maria and especially my Queen of massage, Purity; Vanessa, Andrew, Raoul, Abdullah, Ved at the lobby and pool; Peter at Hydro; Shaukat the driver. I have dozens of other faces that I can’t quite put names to as I write, but all of whom feel like new friends. I do feel like I am coming to my tranquil, gracious home every time I step out my door. My local friends swear by this hotel, as the best spa/brunch/staycation in Dubai - they always want to meet at my hotel, even though it’s a long drive for them - so I know they must be consistent, day after day and year after year. Butch, Sol…it’s a helluva thing you did here, and amazing to see your vision so beautifully executed.
