Miracles in Dubai

Posted on by

What I love about travel besides the excitement of an upcoming Journey or introducing our clients to an amazing experience are the wonderful colleagues I meet along the path.

One of my VIP clients was passing through Dubai and she desperately wanted to sip and dine at the sold out Sky Bar in the Burj Al Arab Jumeriah Hotel – rooms were sold out as well. The iconic sail-shaped silhouette of Burj Al Arab Jumeirah is a stunning hotel, a symbol of modern Dubai. Respecting the privacy of their guests, the hotel strictly regulates dining reservations.

My local team was able to procure an afternoon tea reservation, however I wanted more for her visit! Our clients expect the best and on Friday, I reached out to Cesar Biggeri the Director of Global Sales, Americas. Instantly a plan was put into motion, over the Dubai weekend Cesar contacted Anthony McHale, hotel General Manager, and Jennifer was warmly welcomed, toured and enjoyed the phenomenal view from Al Muntaha, The Ultimate restaurant on the 27th Floor.

It’s no surprise that Cesar has been nominated for Best Director of Sales Worldwide at Jumeriah Group. I love the devotion and dedication to a client experience. Grateful to Cesar and Mr. McHale for a miracle on a Dubai weekend! Shukraan!

And of course, thanks to Jennifer Tilly who generously shared her photos.

Armani Hotel Dubai

Posted on by

It is essential if you visit Dubai, even briefly, you must visit the tallest building in the world, even better STAY in the tallest building!  Glamorous, sleek and stylish, the Armani Hotel is at the base of the tallest tower – my scrumptious Armani suite with the curving windows looked directly down on, of course, the world’s largest choreographed fountain installed in the 30-acre man-made Burj Khalifa Lake. The rooms are snug, subtle and luxurious, cool and dark; they are the absolute opposite of the glaring hot desert. Luxury leather paneling lines the walls making the room whisper soft, a perfect perch to enjoy the dancing fountains. Sinewy and curvy, sexy sleek curves dominate many of the public and private spaces – So Very Very Italian!Technophobes will love that you can use an Ipad to control everything in the room and also listen to the fountain music from your nest above the world.

A new private passageway links you to an enormous shopping center and the entrance to the Burj Khalifa Observation Tower.

Lifestyle Managers field all questions, organize drivers, dinner appointments or shopping excursions.

Armani/SPA offers a fully tailored sensory experience to suit all needs. Highly recommend reserving a treatment to coincide with your Dubai arrival following the 15 hour flight from the West Coast! Deep tissue massage using Armani bois oil with moody resinous cedar wood used as part of a penetrating pressure point treatment that coaxes  jet lagged muscles into releasing tension.

Then on to one of the fabulous award wining restaurants for a late night supper. Savor exquisite cuisine from one of the many options: Ristorante offers the best of regional Italian cuisine; Amal serves high style tastes of India in an unforgettable setting or Hashi – the best of Japan with an imaginative twist on traditional and contemporary Japanese cuisine.

Sexy Piano Bar

Immersed in the glam district of downtown Dubai, the Armani Hotel is classically sophisticated, offers exceptional cuisine, spa pampering and has the premium city views and a high profile address in swanky Dubai.
