My glorious stay at the Burj Al Arab Hotel

I have stayed at some beautiful hotels and resorts in my travels and this one was on my bucket list for two decades ever since I heard of its existence in 1999, but opportunity never arrived, finally as luck would have it, last year a business trip and new client took me to Dubai and how could I not stay at the hotel I had always dreamed of.

I always treat myself for my birthday, something special. For those who know me, know I love celebrating life to the fullest and live life with passion, so celebrating the day of your birth has to be extravagant and grand!. Didn’t get better than this.

Arriving in a Rolls Royce to discreet check-ins to being served round-the-clock by proficient butlers, well how much more grand can you get. You get ushered to your Deluxe Duplex one-bedroom suite, overlooking the blue waters of the Arabian Gulf. Champagne in hand, chocolates and fruit await you.

The suite offers the most exquisite experience and made more special with your personal butler to make your every wish come true. Dubbed The only seven-star hotel for having the world’s largest brigade of butlers, available 24 hours to assist guests from check-in to check-out. It’s so special and surreal experience. luxury is far from understated at the Burj Al Arab.

My master bathroom in the deluxe duplex one-bedroom suite come complete with a full-size Jacuzzi, a separate five-head rain shower, a set of full-size Hermes toiletries. You get to rest your head on a selection of 17 pillow types, Eiderdown duvets, exquisite Egyptian cotton linen over an ultra-deluxe super king bed.

This wonderful relaxed papered experience reminded me of Maya Angelou wonderful quote: “I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” Well how could you not feel like a pampered princess with exceptional people giving you exceptional experience in utter luxury.

Hope you can all join me next year at the Burj Al Arab for the most glorious experience. (Check for more details on our Journeys & Adventures)
