The first overwater villas in the UAE, sitting on Palm Jumeirah's East Crescent above the Arabian Gulf. The 106 m² One Bedroom Over Water Villas have glass floor panels so you can watch the sea below, a private terrace above the water, and a freestanding bathtub with ocean views. A Thai-inspired design — teak, silk, lotus motifs — with the Dubai skyline visible in the distance. 400 metres of private beach, three 24-hour lagoons and six restaurants including the signature Asian restaurant Mekong.

Guests consistently highlight the immersive overwater experience and the escape from urban Dubai. The glass floor panels, Thai-inspired design and the contrast with the Dubai skyline make these villas unlike anything else in the UAE.
