If you´re willing to spend a bit more, this boutique resort member of the Spanish upscale hotel chain Meliá offers a bit more of a desert and less of a hyper-urban feel, located as it is on the city´s outskirts in the 158-acre Desert Palm Polo & Equestian Club estate, some 20 minutes from central Dubai. It has 39 elegant, modern rooms, suites, and villas - some with private pools and views of tropical gardens and the polo grounds. Amenities include the Samana spa and wellness center; the indoor-outdoor Epicure restaurant serving Levantine-Mediterranean cuisine; an infinity pool; and tennis courts. There´s even a fine-art collection! Rates run US$190-$280/£143-£210/€163-€241.
