Jumeirah Dar Al Masyaf, the most intimate resort within Dubai’s sprawling Madinat Jumeirah, has unveiled its reimagined Arabian Houses, combining luxury with heritage to create a sanctuary for guests. Nestled along serene waterways and surrounded by lush gardens, each Arabian House offers a luxurious experience. Thoughtfully redesigned by renowned designer Sahar Al Yasser, these homes blend traditional Arabian elements with sustainable, modern touches, providing an escape just steps away from the heart of Madinat Jumeirah. With personalised hospitality, cultural touches, and exclusive experiences, the Arabian Houses redefine luxury for travellers seeking connection and relaxation.
Here’s everything you need to know about the newly reimagined Arabian Houses at Jumeirah Dar Al Masyaf:
With private courtyards and traditional majlis sitting areas, each Arabian House feels like a home away from home. These spaces can be booked individually or as a complete residence, making them perfect for larger groups or multi-generational families seeking a private retreat.
Award-winning Dubai-based designer Sahar Al Yasser has skillfully crafted each house to blend traditional Arabian heritage with modern luxury. Using a neutral palette with vibrant accents, textured layers, natural fabrics, and upcycled materials, the interiors provide a peaceful yet dynamic setting. This design is beautiful and reflects Jumeirah’s commitment to sustainable and responsible luxury.
Upon arrival, guests are transported via traditional abra boats along the waterways, adding a magical touch to the experience. Each house is attended by dedicated hosts who help tailor every stay, allowing guests to set their own pace. From quiet moments in the courtyards to indulging in local delicacies like freshly brewed teas and experiencing traditional bakhoor (incense) ceremonies, every aspect of the Arabian Houses is designed to create a warm and welcoming experience.
The Arabian Houses offer unique cultural touches, including daily aperitifs in the majlis—a traditional gathering space where guests can savour Arabian-inspired teas and treats. To make every stay even more memorable, children are delighted by daily visits from a candy bicycle, and guests of all ages can participate in a tree-planting ceremony, leaving a lasting legacy at the resort. These experiences deeply connect to Dubai’s heritage while promoting relaxation and enjoyment.
Staying at Jumeirah Dar Al Masyaf gives you access to the diverse offerings of Madinat Jumeirah, Dubai’s largest resort. With over 50 restaurants and bars, a private beachfront, the Talise Spa for holistic wellness treatments, a Kids’ Club complete with mini-golf, and a J Club, guests' needs are met in a relaxing, resort-wide environment. And with scenic abra boat rides or a stroll, exploring the whole resort is a breeze.
