Sun, Sea And REVELRY

Outlook Traveller

March 2024

THERE'S ALWAYS A PARTY on at FIVE Palm Jumeirah. As you enter, the music, cheerful conversations, young, shiny people and a trail of empty glasses in the lobby announce instantly that you've reached one of Dubai's most happening spots.

Sun, Sea And REVELRY

Soon after I check-in, Mira Huzyuk, the hotel's F&B Sales Executive, tells me that FIVE Palm Jumeirah's number one agenda is entertainment. "At FIVE, you can have a thrilling, action-packed vacation without ever needing to leave the premises," said Huzyuk. I spot many unaccompanied women at the resort, which is unsurprising considering the many offerings for its female patrons. "We offer Secret Ladies' Day every Thursday at noon, featuring poolside enjoyment with live DJs. We host a special Ladies' Night on Tuesdays with complimentary drinks and a three-course Japanese feast. Female guests can also pamper themselves at our spa daily from 10 am, take a dip in our rooftop pool and try a session of yoga," she added.

At FIVE, each guest's experience is designed to be environmentally conscious. This is achieved through solar-powered water heating, using repurposed water for landscaping, focusing on local produce and biodegradable amenities, and implementing intelligent controls to conserve energy.

THE SOLE MEMORY

I WAS LOOKING FOR A SHOE shop to get my favourite pair repaired. The August Texan heat had loosened the sole on one of them. In other times, I would have thrown the pair away rather than go through the trouble of finding a repair shop. But I loved these shoes and searched for someone to bring them back to life.

THE BORDERLESS GURU

THE AIR IS THIN, TINGED with the scent of juniper. A swift wind whips through faded prayer flags, while glaciers carve valleys and jagged peaks pierce a sky the colour of lapis lazuli. Standing here, the idea of political borders feels almost absurd. Maps may mark out India, Nepal, Bhutan, or Tibet, but the landscape itself refuses to be partitioned. These mountains carry a shared heritage, embodied by a single figure who transcends frontiers: Padmasambhava, the Lotus-Born. Known as Guru Rinpoche, the Precious Master, Padmasambhava brought Buddhism to Tibet in the eighth century. His image gazes out from gompas across the Himalayas-wrathful yet compassionate, eyes filled with the wisdom of lifetimes. To see him only as a missionary is to miss the larger truth.
