Tree Dubai at Bluewaters
Zen luxury beachfront resort. Asian-influenced soft minimalism throughout — wood panels, neutral hues, floor-to-ceiling windows, and marble bathrooms. Spa-forward and deliberately calm, in contrast to Dubai's usual excess. Think quiet gardens, unhurried service, and the scent of incense in the hallways.

Why It Matters
First Banyan Tree property in Dubai, opened November 2023. Home to TakaHisa, named Michelin Guide 2023's Best Japanese Restaurant in Dubai. Features Demon Duck by three-Michelin-star celebrity chef Alvin Leung. Spa sprawls over 2,257 sqm — one of Dubai's largest — with a signature Rainforest hydrothermal trail. Green Key certified for sustainability.
Banyan Tree Dubai took over from the old Caesars Palace on Bluewaters Island in late 2023 and completely flipped the script. Gone is the Vegas excess; in its place, warm wood-panel interiors, a neutral palette, and the brand's signature scent diffused through every corridor. The island location — just off Dubai Marina — gives you a genuine sense of remove from the city while keeping you minutes from JBR. Three temperature-controlled pools, 500 metres of private beach, and one of Dubai's largest spas at over 2,257 sqm make this place take wellness seriously. The dining is legitimately excellent too, headlined by TakaHisa (Michelin Guide 2023's Best Japanese Restaurant in Dubai) and Demon Duck, where celebrity chef Alvin Leung's Hong Kong-inspired Chinese menu is as theatrical as it is delicious.
Where You'll Stay
10 room types available
Bliss Guestroom
The entry-level room and still a solid 54 sqm. Boulevard views rather than sea — think city energy framed through floor-to-ceiling windows. King or twin configuration. Everything you'd expect: marble bathroom, Nespresso machine, minibar, private balcony, Banyan Tree scent menu and pillow menu.
King or Twin · 54 sqm
Bliss Resort View Guestroom
Same footprint as the Bliss Guestroom at 54 sqm, but with views spanning garden, pool and partial ocean depending on exact floor. King or twin. The views here are the upgrade over the boulevard-facing Bliss category — lush gardens on one side, glimpses of water on the other.
King or Twin · 54 sqmFamily Room
At 108 sqm this is a proper two-room setup — king and twin configuration — with garden, pool and sea views. Works well for families who want space without going full-suite. Sofa beds available for younger children.
