Desert Palm Dubai is a hidden gem 20 minutes away from Dubai Airport. With stables and horse races in your backyard, an extravagant spa and delicious dining destinations, Desert Palm is the definition of a weekend. You can have a barbecue with friends and family in your backyard while watching a polo match or unwind by the pool. For families with children, explore the diverse wildlife at Dubai Safari for an unforgettable adventure and lots of stories to bring back home.

Begin by booking a luxurious Pool Residence that offers four Combo Dubai Safari Park Tickets per stay. The hotel offers a complimentary drop off and pick up for families staying at Desert Palm Dubai. The package also offers a 15% discount at their restaurants, a 15% discount on Spa Treatments and selected complimentary snacks and drinks. You can also avail the early check in and a lazy late check out offer. Arrive early and head to Dubai Safari with the kids. Dubai Safari is home to more than 2500 animals from all over the world and aims to be one of the top ten zoos internationally. It comprises of the Arabian, Asian and African village, including an Open Safari and the Children’s Farm. From Komodo Dragons and gazelles, visit some of the most exotic wildlife animals roaming around the massive 119 hectares of land, including lions, cheetahs, giraffes, hyenas, over 70 baboons living as one large troop and more. After the tour, you can unwind by the waterfall and engage in fun-filled family activities at the theatre. Come back and relax in your backyard or private pool and enjoy in-villa barbecue dinner with your family.

The two-bedroom residence is designed to be a home away from home, unlike its other younger and resort-inspired rooms. The residence has its own garden, private pool, al fresco dining area within a stone walled courtyard and a private garage for your car. With a spacious living room, kitchenette, fridge and separate bathrooms, it fits a family of four comfortably with room for more. However the logistics don’t allow one to connecting a device for AirPlay or to play media on TV but thankfully have a robust BOSE sound system. The next day is a new chapter and an opportunity for the family to get together and enjoy new wonders dispersed around the property.

Once you have rewarded the kids, it is your turn to treat yourself and immerse in a relaxing spa experience. Samana spa offers a half or full day experience that allows you to focus on your well-being through apothecary and homeopathic styled experiences. A Samāna Guru who is trained to anticipate your needs and can customize a treatment based on individual needs greets you upon arrival. Choose the 75 minute long Citrus C Deep Cleansing Facial if you want to leave feeling relaxed and rejuvenated. Using exfoliation, hydration and a deep pore cleanse using pure vitamin C from fresh pink grapefruit, lime and grapes, it removes blackheads, oil and dirt from your skin. This treatment helps give your face a natural glow, deters future breakouts and keeps your skin nourished. Enjoy a scrumptious family meal overlooking the main championship polo field at Al Fresco. Epicure offers all day dining and gourmet display of imported delicacies, artisan cheeses, home smoked cuts and desserts. Rare is the wood fire grill that offers delectable tapas and other innovative dishes. For the rest of the day, savor their rare polo experiences. Ride horseback through the estate and uncover private equestrian stables. You can also book horse-riding classes for the family. Make this weekend about reconnecting with your family and yourself. Indulge, inspire and refuel your senses at Desert Palm Dubai.
