Burj Al Arab

Today me and my cousin were discussing about world's most destinations and he told me about this marvelous seven-star hotel located in U.A.E. which he visited last year with his family , Burj Al Arab. So I decided to google it and here's what I found.


One of the very few seven star hotels of the world Burj Al Arab stands over one thousand feet tall and was built to resemble the sail of a yacht.


This mega structure has been built over its own island located about 1000 feet offshore from Dubai.

The architecture of this hotel is such that despite being so long it contains only 28 stories as each story is built of twice the height of a usual story inside a hotel.

This is the view of one of the 202 Duplex suites of Burj Al Arab. Each of these have floor-to-ceiling windows that overlook the water surrounding this offshore property. The room is laden with all kinds of latest technologies and accessories with the controls at guest's fingertips.
the hotel also provides a chauffeur-driven Rolls Royce for its patrons to visit other destinations in Dubai.

The hotel's lobby has a very soothing ambiance and its interiors are just magnificent.

Al Mahara, the restaurant is one of the main attraction as it is world's only under water restaurant. Dining here starts with a three-minute simulated submarine descent. It also has a floor to ceiling saltwater aquarium built at the center of the room.

On the top floor is located the spa at the Burj Al Arab. There are seperate pools as well as treatment rooms for men and women.

Absolutely sensational stuff, isnt it? I dont know about you guys but this wonder has certainly gone to the top of my list of dream destinations.
