The Jumeirah Beach Hotel is
an impressive beachfront resort, an icon of contemporary
design with its vast gleaming curves sculpted to represent a
breaking ocean wave. Ultra modern storeys represent the height
of luxury and are flanked by an exceptional range of
recreational facilities at the Pavilion Marina and Sports
Club, and by the Wild Wadi waterpark next door. Interior
design is inspired by the four natural elements of Earth, Air,
Fire and Water, with corresponding color schemes applied
