As if taken directly from “Arabian Nights”, the Madinat Jumeirah in Dubai captures the essence of ancient Arabian romanticism, without sacrificing any modern creature comforts. On the contrary, this three-hotel resort, its maze of waterways, the 44 restaurants, and its very own souk leave little to be desired. If the offering is too overwhelming, there’s always the pristine beachfront. Discerned travelers know to stay in the ornate spaces of Al Qasr.
