Located in the relatively new Dubai Creek Harbour development, Vida Creek Harbour is a captivating blend of contemporary chic and Arabian traditions. It also promises breathtaking views of the Dubai skyline, especially at sunset. This destination is now one of the city’s most popular spots to watch the sun go down behind the outline of the skyscrapers, as the water reflects the ethereal light of the sky.

Things to do at the hotel

Delicious food with waterfront views is on the menu at Vida Creek Harbour. The hotel has three restaurants to choose from: Stage 2, The Courtyard and Soulgreen. Stage 2 is the hotel’s signature concept, where you'll find a laidback lounge setting with global dishes. If you want something a little more social, The Courtyard is the perfect spot to unwind with friends and family. It’s an alfresco venue with uninterrupted views of the Dubai Creek and skyline, where you can tuck into Middle Eastern-inspired food. Meanwhile, Soulgreen is a plant-based dining concept where both physical and mental wellbeing are prioritised.

While you’re at the hotel, take a free-to-use bicycle and enjoy a leisurely ride across the surrounding area, or head to the fitness centre and work out while marvelling at the majestic Burj Khalifa. If you'd rather relax in the sunshine, pop to the infinity pool, an inviting oasis where you can soak up the rays while enjoying the views.
