72 Hours in Dubai: Desert Decadence in Just 3 Days

Spend the day in Jumeirah Beach, and start at one of the many opulent resorts along The Palm Jumeirah. We chose the One&Only The Palm for its restaurants (Zest brunch above and onsite Stay, run by three Michelin-starred chef Yannick Alleno), tiled main pool and rentable cabanas, and private beach. When we visited in early February, the weather hovered in the 80s most days and had little humidity, easily comparable to tropical destinations like Hawaii or the Caribbean.
