"Located away from Dubai’s main traveler trail, the Bvlgari Resort Dubai feels like a secret refuge. The line-up of supercars on the driveway may hint at a clientele of crypto bros and reality TV influencers, but inside there’s a grown-up, understated crowd. There’s nothing showy about the building, but everything looks and feels expensive, from the gleaming Mongolian black granite in the lobby to the green-and-gold mosaic tiles in the spa and the cashmere blankets in the bedrooms. Gardens are filled with shade-giving palms and fragrant frangipani, the beach is soft and powdery, and the poolside cabanas are perfect for mindless lounging. There’s a cluster of Michelin stars at the Italian and Japanese restaurants—the latter a 17-seat counter that feels straight out of Ginza—and the 20 resort villas are among the best in the city, perfectly private residences for those who don’t want to be seen. From $568. —Nicola Chilton" - CNT Editors

"Anchored on its own seahorse-shaped island, the Bvlgari Resort stood out for its low-slung, villa-style layout that separates quiet beaches from a smart marina and includes the exclusive Bulgari Yacht Club; the design felt deliberately restrained compared with Dubai’s skyscraper canyons and emphasized an intimate island atmosphere." - Laura Ratliff
"Following a restful night, I check into this low‑rise resort on the Jumeirah Bay peninsula, designed by Antonio Citterio and Patricia Viel to bring contemporary, elegant Milanese style to the Middle East; rooms and common areas tastefully blend Mashrabiya patterns with high‑end Italian design elements and look out to the city’s blue coastline." - The MICHELIN Guide
"A restrained, sophisticated beach retreat on a private island centered on a boutique marina and yacht club, offering a calm, grown-up atmosphere with palm-flanked pools, a powdery sandy beach, refined Italian cocktails, and high-end dining including a two-Michelin-starred Italian restaurant and a one-Michelin-starred sushi venue. Light-filled rooms with floor-to-ceiling windows and a small collection of spacious one- to three-bedroom villas with private pools and gardens make this a go-to for privacy and discreet service." - Nicola Chilton
