During the 5 years of Airlines Travel, I had the pleasure and joy of traveling in the country and abroad. Most of the trips were in Europe and I visited from Spain to Antalya and from Italy to Germany. We stayed at hostels, hotels of 3 *, 4 * and 5 *, in different resorts and villas.
There were cases when I was disappointed with 5 * hotels and was pleasantly surprised by 3 * hotels or hostels. Each country has its own standard of classification of accommodation units. We will not find the quality of services in Antalya in accommodation units in Spain, as we will not find all-inclusive Turkish in destinations in Greece.
In today's article, we will tell you about luxury hotels. Together with Parallel45 Luxury I chose several 5 star hotels and many more.
Burj al-Arab - Dubai
Let's start with the famous Burj al-Arab in Dubai. I didn't choose him by chance. This hotel was unofficially approved by 7 stars from a British journalist, who conducted a review before the official opening. In reality, Burj al-Arab has 5 Deluxe Stars.
The hotel has a height of 321 meters, being the tallest hotel in the world. It is located on an artificial island, 280 meters from Jumeirah Beach. It stands out through its unique architecture, the hotel being designed by the British architect - Tom Wright. The shape of the construction mimics a boat with sails of Arab origin, called "Dhow".
But Burj al-Arab excels not only from an architectural point of view, but also through the opulence displayed inside. Designer Khuan Chew "played" with western and oriental styles and turned out to be one of the most luxurious hotels in the world. 22 karate marble and gold are not missing from this extravagant hotel.
The smallest room has 170 square meters, while the largest room has 780 square meters. It is a royal apartment, and access is by private elevator. In the bedroom is a rotating canopy bed.
But Burj al-Arab is also highlighted by 2 famous restaurants: Al Muntaha is 200 meters above the Persian Gulf and offers panoramic views over Dubai; Al Mahara is a restaurant built in an aquarium with 990 000 liters of water. The basin wall is made of 18 cm acrylic glass.
Burj al-Arab deserves an entire article, but this time we will stop here. Even though the hotel was opened in 1999, it remains one of the most attractive in Dubai.
Marina Bay Sands - Singapore
In 2's place is Marina Bay Sands of Singapore. It is a luxury resort, recognized for its unique architecture. The construction was designed by Moshe Safdie, who was inspired by playing cards. The complex consists of 3 main towers, which house 2500 rooms and apartments, a huge casino, conference rooms and the ArtScience Museum.
The 3 towers are connected by a roof terrace called Sands SkyPark. It offers panoramic views over the bay. At the same time, here you will find the longest swimming pool in the world (146 meters), which is located 191 meters above the ground. Restaurants and night clubs are not missing. Let's not forget the casino complex, which has over 1000 gaming tables and 1400 slot machine.
For shopping lovers, The Shoppes Mall in Marina Bay Sands has approximately 93 000 of square meters and hosts over 300 of shops and boutiques.
Wynn Las Vegas
From Singapore we fly to Las Vegas, to Wynn Las Vegas. This is a luxury resort and casino, located on the Las Vegas Strip, Paradise, Nevada. The complex was named after Steve Wynn, CEO of Wynn Resorts.
The hotel has 49 floors and has 2 716 rooms with dimensions between 59 square meters and 650 square meters. The complex includes an 10 300 square meter casino, a conference center and a 7100 square meter shopping complex.
Together with Encore Las Vegas, the Wynn complex has a total of 4750 rooms, being the 7 place in the top of the largest hotels in the world.
The Wynn Las Vegas Complex received the highest rating from most of the world's most prestigious publications. And the Wing Lei restaurant has a Michelin star.
The hotel complex of Wynn Las Vegas and Encore Las Vegas offers some of the best premium services in the world. He is recognized in the film world, appearing in several Hollywood films (2012 and Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2).
There is no shortage of shops, boutiques, top restaurants and relaxation areas. The resort benefits from Wynn Golf, being the only golf course on the Las Vegas Strip.
And don't forget! What's going on in Las Vegas, stays in Las Vegas!
Four Seasons Resort Bora Bora
And we get to Bora Bora. Here we recommend the Four Seasons Resort Bora Bora, the world's # 11 luxury resort for the honeymoon (according to TripAdvisor). The resort is located at Motu Tehotu, on the island of Bora Bora.
According to Condé Nast Traveler, Four Seasons Resort Bora Bora has been designated resort no. 1 from French Polynesia, distinction received in 2012.
Four Seasons Resort Bora Bora consists of 100 of bungalows above the water and 7 seaside villas. The resort was designed by architects Didier Lefort and Pierre-Jean Picart, and the inauguration was made in 2008. The complex offers a full-service spa; four restaurants and water activities.
The resort is home to Ruahatu Lagoon Sanctuary, home to 100 marine species, including parrot fish, lizard fish, butterfly fish, unpowered fish and many more.
