One&Only Royal Mirage - Dubai

Arabian Court

Luxury At Your Finger Tips

Enjoy an opulent, magical oasis of Arabian luxury, crafted in the spirit of the Orient at Arabian Court, One&Only Royal Mirage. With dramatic architecture and an enchanting landscape of courtyards and fountains, guests arrive to discover a reflecting pool that draws the eye to the horizon with its inviting glimpses of the sea beyond.

Add to this a selection of gorgeous rooms and suites all with spectacular views, fantastic sports facilities and a spa, and you have everything you could possibly dream of. Different activities are available for those looking to get out of the palm-fronded intimacy the resort offers. And after a long day exploring or relaxing poolside, you can choose between a variety of different restaurants and bars, each with their own ambience and style, and feature dishes for world-acclaimed chefs.

A dreamy stay

” There’s something about stepping into the One&Only Royal Mirage that feels like you’ve been transported to another world. It’s not just the scale of the place (it’s vast) or the sheer beauty of the design—it’s the way it feels so perfectly peaceful, tucked away along a pristine stretch of private beach, yet so close to the heart of Dubai. I spent some time here, and honestly, it was the kind of experience that stays with you long after you’ve left.

This hotel, with its stunning Arabian architecture, intricate arches, domes, and lush gardens, feels like a modern-day palace straight out of a fairytale. The moment you step in, you’re greeted with this understated elegance that makes you feel at home but also utterly spoiled. The attention to detail here is impeccable, from the luxurious interiors to the subtle scents of incense that waft through the corridors. It’s serene yet opulent, the kind of place where you instantly unwind.

One of the highlights of my stay was having dinner at the Argentinian restaurant, DRIFT. Located on the beachfront, this spot brings a little slice of Argentina’s vibrant flavours to Dubai, and it’s seriously impressive. The food was fantastic, with a menu that focuses on grilled meats and bold, rustic flavours. If you’re a steak lover, you’re in for a treat! The asado was mouth-wateringly good, and the chimichurri sauce – Perfection. Add to that the incredible views of the sea, the relaxed atmosphere, and the attentive service, and it was easily one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in a long time.

One of the coolest things about staying at the Royal Mirage is that you can take a boat ride over to its sister property, One&Only The Palm. It’s such a unique way to experience Dubai, gliding across the water, with views of the skyline and the Palm Jumeirah along the way. I loved how seamless this connection felt, like you’re getting two world-class resorts in one trip. Both hotels have their own distinctive personalities, but you still get that signature One&Only service no matter where you go. 

But back to Royal Mirage—this place has so much more to offer than just stunning looks. The hotel is split into three distinct areas: The Palace, Arabian Court, and the Residence & Spa. Each has its own vibe and style, but they all share the same level of luxury and attention to detail. You could spend an entire day just exploring the grounds. The gardens are immaculate, and the fountains, winding pathways, and palm trees give the whole place a sense of serenity. There’s also an incredible spa, which, unfortunately, I didn’t get to try this time, but I’ve heard amazing things about their hammam treatments. It’s definitely on my list for next time.

The beach itself deserves a mention. Unlike many Dubai hotels that have smaller, busier beach areas, Royal Mirage has this long, gorgeous stretch of private beach with crystal-clear waters. The pool area is equally stunning, with plenty of space to relax without ever feeling crowded.

What I really appreciated about One&Only Royal Mirage is the balance it strikes. It’s luxurious, yes, but it also feels intimate. You have all the facilities you’d expect from a high-end Dubai resort, but it never feels overwhelming or overly grand. The staff are incredibly warm and welcoming, and the service feels personal, no matter how large the property is.

In short, One&Only Royal Mirage is the kind of place that pulls you into its charm from the moment you arrive and makes you want to stay forever.” ~ Frankie
