When I need a laid-back daycay, I always find myself heading to Kempinski Hotel & Residences Palm Jumeirah.

As a British expat living in Dubai, I’m always on the lookout for the best places to unwind and soak up the sun. When I need a laid-back daycay, I always find myself heading to Kempinski Hotel & Residences Palm Jumeirah. It’s my go-to Privilee spot for relaxing pool days, sunset views, and long lunches by the beach. Here’s why I keep coming back.

The perfect R&R daycay

Sometimes, you just need to press pause on the fast-paced city life, and Kempinski Palm Jumeirah is the perfect place to do just that. Tucked away on the west crescent, the resort feels like a little sanctuary, offering the best of Dubai’s iconic coastline without the crowds. Whether I’m in the mood for an all-day tanning session, a peaceful dip, or simply unwinding with a book by the pool, this place has it all.

Aesthetic goals: A chic escape

Everything about this resort is a dream for content creation. The neutral colour palette, stunning architecture, and Mediterranean-inspired design make every corner picture-perfect. I always leave with my camera roll full of the hotel aesthetics, greenery, and beachfront. 

A hidden hideaway

One of the things I love most about Kempinski Palm Jumeirah is how peaceful it is. The resort’s quiet vibe makes it the ultimate hideaway when I need to escape the city buzz. From lounging on a sun lounger or strolling along the beach, it’s the kind of place that instantly makes you feel at ease.

Palm Jumeirah paradise

Surrounded by greenery with a stunning beach backdrop, this resort makes you forget you’re in the desert. There’s something about the way the palm trees sway in the breeze and the sea stretches out endlessly in front of you—it feels like a true tropical retreat. The setting never gets old for catching the sun or staying for sunset.

Long, lazy lunches

No daycay is complete without a beachfront lunch, and Villamoré is my absolute favourite spot. Fresh seafood, ocean views, and that perfect laid-back atmosphere—it’s a must-visit. Plus, with 25% off as a Privilee Member, I never feel guilty about ordering that extra dish or sundowner!
