The hotel
Milan, moved to an island in the Gulf.
Jumeira Bay is a seahorse-shaped island joined to the coast by a bridge of about 300 metres. The resort opened there in December 2017, designed by the Milan studio Antonio Citterio Patricia Viel. Rooms open onto wide balconies, and the towers of Downtown Dubai stand across the water.
The MICHELIN Guide gave the resort two Keys in 2025 and confirmed them in 2026. Two of its restaurants are starred: Il Ristorante – Niko Romito holds two MICHELIN stars, and Hōseki, a seventeen-seat sushi counter, holds one. Both are inside the resort.
- The Bvlgari Spa Over 1,700 square metres with the gym, seven treatment rooms and a couple suite, a hammam, and a 25-metre indoor pool. The vitality pool takes its cue from the Baths of Caracalla.
