Nikki Beach Resort & Spa Dubai

This sleek, contemporary beach resort is the beating heart of the exclusive Pearl Jumeirah island, a luxury development just off the Jumeirah waterfront. It’s home to one of the most popular beach clubs on the island, and as such is a fantastic option for those who plan to make the most of Dubai’s beach club culture.

Nikki Beach is the original luxury beach club, with locations around the world. Their Dubai club brings together fabulous dining and drinking options, entertainment, music, and of course a large private beach of white, immaculate sand. Meanwhile, the interiors are designed to bring the beach vibe inside, with soothing neutrals and blues that match the colors of the surrounding Arabian Gulf.

All the rooms are very spacious and come with balconies and first-rate amenities such as Malin + Goetz toiletries, mood lighting, and oversized bathrooms with standalone tubs and rain showers. The hottest accommodation onsite, however, are the private pool villas, each with its own beach-facing swimming pool, loungers, and all the amenities you could possibly need to feel at home. The villas sleep 4-6 people, and so are great for groups of friends traveling together.

The resort also boasts excellent fitness and wellness facilities, with a large swimming pool and bubble pool on the beachfront. These are reserved for hotel guests - as opposed to beach club day-trippers - so are a great place to unwind. There are also water sports available on the beach, and a fabulous Spa with original treatments.
