The Life in Five: Dubai’s Unseen Sensations

We often have moments in our lives where we wish to unwind and break free from activities in a professional setting, that are either considered to be ‘Tedious’ or too ‘Pressurizing’ for the mind, body and soul.

Weekends are usually the days where we spend our time catching up with friends for a cup of coffee, visiting theme parks and shopping malls with family or your loved one, or treating yourself for a quiet dinner in a Michelin star restaurant where it’s just you, the delightful food and the view.

In case the workload or submitting reports at a given time are getting too much for you to handle, consider visiting the Five Hotel & Resorts, which is situated in Palm Jumeirah and Jumeirah Village respectively.
