For a milestone birthday my friend and I treated ourselves to the Sal beach club for the day. From the moment we were greeted at the entrance, to our arrival at reception, through to the short buggy ride down to the magnificent setting of the Sal beach club we were greeted by staff who could not do enough for us. A special mention to Anthony and Nagu who provided exceptional service and attended to our need.

Having visited last December some of the staff were still there and remembered us. Sat in the Skyview bar and had a bottle of Champagne. Very relaxed and felt welcomed and looked after. Probably the most exclusive but relaxing venue we visit.

The high level of service, the luxury and prestige of its rooms, the fine materials of its fittings and its excellent restaurants have earned the Burj Al Arab the title of “7-star hotel” that has made it famous in the world. Entry to the hotel is paid, starting with 159 dirhams for a 90-minute tour. Decided to stop at close distance and take few photos only.

Unreal to think this is that old! It still looks amazing. I'm writing having enjoyed a coffee looking at it and being amazed it still looks "timeless". So I have not been inside but marvel at how amazing it looks from the outside!

I booked a tour with Golden Capuchino, and all was amazing. I've seen the most beautiful hotel in the world from close distance. Architecture, interior design, colors, high, gold, gold, and more gold! Build in the sea with the most nice view of Dubai! I really enjoyed the tour. Recommend it! And book the Golden Capuchino or champagne at the end and stay at the bar in the garden and chill!

The parking was clean and shining and there was a huge fountain in the shape of the hotel. there was a big fountain on the second floor that had different stone colors. the deluxe sweet had 3 living rooms 2 floors. the royal sweet tour was extraordinary! I really enjoyed my stay there! I really recommend it for everyone ╰(*°▽°*)╯

Expensive (£157) for 2 including a soft drink at the ground floor bar watching the sun set but an utterly fantastic building with good displays, fantastic views and opulence and bling by the bucket load. The guides were knowledgeable and friendly. Save money by going to the mall nearly opposite on the main road and go to Sardinia’s restaurant upstairs. Great fish

What a fantastic place to enjoy the sunset over a cocktail. Sky View bar on floor 27 was stunning with incredible service- just as you would expect. The views were fantastic! Staff were friendly and attentive and went the extra mile to make it an unforgettable experience. Prices are more than your average bar but that is expected in this hotel. It was certainly well priced for the location. Decor in and out is beautiful. I will go back for a special occasion or with guests. Thank you!

A snapshot visit how the other half live. Really opulent in a slightly OTT way. The tour lasted about an hour after the buggy rider from the JBH. Quite expensive (399 AED) but definitely a once in a lifetime thing, I'm never going to spend the sort of money needed to stay in the hotel.

I don‘t recommend to buy a visit. Too expensive. The most impressive part of the visit lasts less than a minute. It is hotel lobby. It looks really fantastic, but you are not allowed to take a picture. So you pay 70-80 Euro for the whole visit and spend 1 minute crossing the lobby on the way to the elevator. You can stay and enjoy lounge bar, but be aware, it is not on the top, it has no panoramic view. It is the one on the ground floor.
