Slick City and Dreamy Beaches

Fly into Dubai International Airport and transfer to your luxury hotel, The Address in Downtown Dubai. This ultra-luxe bolt-hole is situated at the heart of downtown with views of the sky-piercing tower Burj Khalifa, old town and the impressive Dubai Fountains. The Address boasts an alluring infinity pool, a luxurious spa with ‘ice cave’ and an array of upscale restaurants and bars, so you won’t be left wanting for delicious cuisine on your honeymoon. During your visit you might want to scour Dubai’s chic shopping malls, where designer boutiques rub shoulders with indoor ski slopes; or hit Jumeirah Beach to bask in the sun in style.

After three nights in Dubai we’ll whisk you off to Gili Lankanfushi in the Maldives via Malé Airport. This lavish beach retreat has recently been declared the best hotel in the world, and with good reason. Honeymooners will revel in the incredible beauty of Gili Lankanfushi’s natural surroundings – tranquil, aquamarine waters lapping powder-white sand, with no other resorts in sight – and the impeccable service is worth writing home about, too.

While away the hours in your decadent water suite, suspended above the sea and decked out with open-aired bathrooms and rooftop terraces, and jump into the warm waters for swimming and snorkelling whenever you please. Try Hobie Cat sailing, diving or windsurfing, or indulge in the hotel’s amazing spa. We also recommend a sunset cruise so you can spot dolphins out at sea.

When it comes to dining, you’ve no reason to leave the hotel. Feast on delicious Japanese fare one night, then enjoy a Mediterranean buffet the next or opt for a private beach picnic on one of the atolls. At Gili Lankanfushi, your personal butler is at your beck and call, so expect a week of total pampering.
