REVIEW – Four Seasons Dubai at Jumeirah Beach

My main takeaway with this property is that it looks and feels so much better in person that the pictures on the Four Seasons website would imply.

If you've made the decision to travel during this pandemic I think it's almost impossible to make the case for a better destination.
