Description Sky View: Dubai

With dizzying views over Downtown Dubai and within a short walk of Dubai Mall and the soaring Burj Khalifa, this stylish serviced apartment offers a fabulous desert refuge that's a pleasure to return to after a day immersed in the razzle and dazzle of Dubai.

Its sleek interior has been designed with your needs in mind. Think well-equipped kitchen, comfortable seating and a king-size bed that guarantees a great night's sleep. Elsewhere, an inviting private balcony really comes into its own as you sip a revitalising morning coffee or refreshing chilled glass at sunset. And with the mercury rising towards midday, the communal pool offers a welcome respite from the heat of the day. Alternatively, make your way down to the white sand beaches to soak up some sun and sip cocktails at one of Dubai's illustrious beach clubs.
