One&Only One Za’abeel
One&Only One Za’abeel takes everything we love about One&Only’s coastal resorts and transports it to the beating heart of Dubai.
The architecture is undeniably striking: two imposing towers connected via the world’s longest cantilever, The Link, a futuristic boulevard floating 100 metres above the city. Once inside, The Link is TARDIS-like, with room within its three storeys for a roster of restaurants from Michelin-star chefs, not to mention the UAE’s longest infinity pool, where DJs spin chilled-out tunes before magnificent views of the Burj Khalifa.
Contemporary rooms and suites boast interiors by design veteran Jean-Michel Gathy and feature floor-to-ceiling windows with breathtaking skyline views. Of particular note are the corner suites with 180-degree views and the sensational Villa One, a two-bedroom penthouse complete with kitchen, cinema, gym and outdoor marble lap pool.
On the fourth floor, The Garden is a lush oasis home to a family-friendly pool with a swim-up bar and a street-food-inspired restaurant from Dabiz Muñoz, voted best chef in the world for three years running. Also of note is the three-storey Longevity Hub by Clinique La Prairie, dedicated to unlocking longevity and lasting vitality.
