City life or beach bliss? It's the best of both here.

At Rixos Premium Dubai, you can experience the calming beauty of the sea without leaving the city. There are 414 rooms with panoramic views of the beach, as well as suites that have direct access to it. Oh, and the hotel even has its very own private Azure Beach, which also features a stunning outdoor pool.

If you’re keen to spend time in the water rather than lounging beside it, you can do everything from water skiing to parasailing at the water sports centre, Sky and Sea Adventures. Personal wellness is looked after at RixGym, with sweeping panoramic views over the Arabian Gulf, or you can simply work out right on that private beach.
