"Why book? A dazzling Dubai property with a personality to match, W The Palm is as surprising as it is bold. Set the scene The Gen-Z of the hotel offerings on The Palm, this expansive property attracts plenty of young, beautiful people, whether they be locals looking for a staycay or international tourists with a pep in their step. Foodies are drawn to its culinary menu that includes Akira Back and Massimo Bottura’s Torno Subito, each of which consistently draws a crowd. The W is an instagrammers delight inside and out, the hotel exuding a lively, party vibe that draws a smile from all who set foot inside. The back story A relative newcomer to this iconic neighborhood, one of the city’s most iconic, this 350-room stunner is part of Marriott Group’s W family and it is as loud and proud as its global counterparts.  The rooms A party pad in every way, each of the rooms are decked out with a combination of shimmering tiles, colorful furnishings and architectural curves, not to mention the cocktail kit and the boombox for your favorite tunes. The Arabic calligraphy on the walls give each suite a sense of place and the views add to the appeal.  Food and drink Journey back to the Italian Riviera of the ‘60s at the hotel’s signature eatery Torno Subito where you can’t go past the cacio e pepe spaghetti - Bottura’s favorite dish. Japanese culinary king Akira Back’s debut Middle Eastern Asian fusion venue doesn’t disappoint with its tuna pizza and AB tacos, not to mention its polished sakes that come with an exclusive price tag. Pre-dinner head up to SoBe for a sunset-infused cocktail. The spa The iridescent signage at the entry of the AWAY spa is in-keeping with the hotel’s cheeky appeal and the welcome as glamorous as you’d expect with the circular reception area that also acts as a nail bar. The warmth and intimacy of the space emanates throughout. The 90-minute Arabian massage and Maroc Maroc products are divine.  The neighborhood/area West Crescent is part of the exclusive Palm Jumeirah neighborhood. Positioned between the Raffles and One&Only properties, the W is in good company, and there really is no reason to leave the resort.  The service Whatever, Whenever is the approach to service and it’s on-point here. More casual and friendly than reverential, guests are greeted with enthusiasm and a happy-to-help attitude whether it be at the concierge desk, over the phone or on the WET deck. For families Perhaps not as attractive to families as other properties in the neighborhood, the resort does provide for the little ones. There’s a children’s pool, babysitting services, an arcade/games room and cots/infant beds available by request.  Accessibility Those guests with disabilities are well catered for here, with grab rails, height adjustable shower heads and wheelchair accessibility throughout the property. Anything left to mention? The WET deck pool area rivals the most elaborate in the emirate, ideal for a weekend pool party or private dip and sip session. Prepare to be surrounded by beautiful people." - Melinda Healy
