L'Hotel with the highest infinity pool in the world? It opened its doors in Dubai. And, just to see it, it makes you want to go.
In this article:
L'Address Beach Resort has a huge infinity pool, towering above the city sky. Its height? 293.906 meters. Almost as high as the Eiffel Tower, more than any other pool in the world (the record was previously held by Singapore's Marina Bay Sands, with its 191-meter pool).
Address Beach Resort, the hotel with the highest infinity pool
At 98.84 meters long and 16.5 meters wide, the pool at Address Beach Resort is twice as long as an Olympic-size pool. And it matters little, whether you want to stay poolside to enjoy the view or treat yourself to long strokes: once in a lifetime, a stay here should be booked (not least because, prices, are less prohibitive than you might think).
The pool is open only to hotel guests, as long as they are over 21 years old, but everyone can reserve a table at the Asian restaurant next door (the Zeta Seventy Beach, named after the floor on which it is located) to partake in the view.
The Address Beach Resort and Address Beach Residences are housed in two towers, connected to each other at the base and via a bridge from the 63rd to the 77th floor. And it is precisely the suspension bridge, to set another record: it is in fact the highest in the world and houses luxurious apartments. The property across the street, the Jumeirah Gate, opened last December. And it is among the skyscrapers of the new Dubai.
There are several options for those who want to stay at the hotel with the world's highest infinity pool. They range from the Deluxe Marina View Room with king-size bed, to the Three Bedroom Presidential Suite with beds for 5 adults and 2 children. Children up to age 4 stay for free. Prices? The cheapest solution ranges from 221 euros per night in August to 1,130 euros in the peak season (Christmas to New Year's), with an average of 450 euros if one assumes going to Dubai when the heat is not stifling (around November). Sleeping in the presidential suite, for two, can cost just over 500 euros. Provided, however, that you go in the off-season.
Can you go to Dubai today?
The answer is: no. Currently, the United Arab Emirates is in Group E - Rest of the World: it is therefore only possible to travel there for work, health, study, absolute urgency, return to one's home, dwelling or residence. Travel for tourism is therefore not allowed.
However, the Emirates has gradually resumed connections with the rest of the world (currently there are flights from both Milan Malpensa than from Rome Fiumicino). Only those with a negative Covid-19 test can board, and there is a 10-day quarantine only for those continuing on to Abu Dhabi.
