Swimming Pool

The Pools at Burj Al Arab – Where Water Becomes Theatre

At Burj Al Arab Jumeirah, even the pools feel like a scene from a dream. Suspended between the sea and sky, this isn’t just swimming—it’s floating in a masterpiece. Whether you're soaking in serenity or posing for golden hour perfection, the pools here are curated for those who understand that relaxation is an art form.


The Outdoor Infinity Pool

Located at the terrace level, this sweeping saltwater pool appears to pour straight into the Arabian Gulf. Sun loungers dressed in crisp whites, champagne flutes at the ready, and DJ-curated playlists drift in the breeze. This is where Dubai’s elite sunbathe, socialise, and slip into bliss.


Adults-Only Serenity Pool

For couples and those seeking calm over conversation, the adults-only pool is a sanctuary of silence. With an uninterrupted view of the horizon, it’s ideal for honeymooners, pre-wedding moments, or solo reflection. Expect poolside service, plush cabanas, and nothing but stillness.


Indoor Pool at Talise Spa

Bathed in natural light, the indoor pool is a sensory retreat. Gold mosaic tiles shimmer below the surface, while the gentle sound of water echoes like a lullaby. Guests often drift from spa treatment to steam room to swim, wrapped in robes and tranquillity.


Signature Touches

  • Temperature-controlled pools, salt and fresh water options

  • Exclusive cabanas with butler service, ideal for bridal parties or post-wedding recovery

  • Floating breakfast trays and in-pool afternoon teas are available on request

  • Photographer-approved for bridal shoots, drone capture permitted with advance approval

Fitness Center

At Burj Al Arab Jumeirah, even your workout feels like a private audience with the skyline. The Fitness Centre, located within the Talise Spa complex, is a sanctuary for the driven — a glass-wrapped temple of movement floating high above the Arabian Gulf.

This is not a hotel gym. This is precision, performance, and panoramic views — where every treadmill faces infinity and every rep is elevated by design.


Facilities & Equipment

State-of-the-art Technogym and Life Fitness equipment dominate the space, from intelligent resistance machines to next-generation treadmills and cross-trainers. Every detail has been curated with elite athletes and wellness seekers in mind.

For strength training, expect free weights up to championship level, Olympic bars, functional training rigs, and whisper-quiet flooring beneath your every lift.


Mind-Body Balance

If intensity isn’t your tempo, find your rhythm in the dedicated yoga and stretch studio, where floor-to-ceiling windows pour light across the mat. Guests can book sunrise yoga sessions, guided breathwork, or private mobility flow with world-class instructors.


Private Coaching & Bridal Fitness

  • One-on-one personal training with elite coaches

  • Custom programs for pre-wedding sculpting, stress relief, or travel recovery

  • Couples' training experiences for honeymooners who lift together

  • Body composition analysis and wellness consultations are available on request


Open 24/7 – Because Discipline Doesn’t Sleep

Whether you rise at dawn or reset after dark, the fitness centre is open around the clock — reserved, refined, and ready.

Spa

The Talise Spa – Wellness in the Clouds

Perched 150 metres above the Arabian Gulf, the Talise Spa at Burj Al Arab Jumeirah is not a spa—it’s a sanctuary suspended between sea and sky. Encased in floor-to-ceiling glass, this ultra-exclusive wellness haven offers panoramic views that stretch beyond the horizon, while the silence inside whispers one thing only: you are here to transcend.

Step inside and you’re greeted not by noise, but by stillness. Gold mosaics shimmer beneath your feet, while aromatic notes of oud and neroli dance through the air. Every detail—every candle flicker, every towel fold—is choreographed for complete restoration.

Whether you arrive as a bride seeking serenity before the aisle, a honeymooner craving profound renewal, or simply a soul in need of pause, Talise answers with tailored perfection.


Signature Rituals

From 24-karat gold facials to crystal healing massages and bespoke bridal beauty programs, each treatment is designed to cocoon, calm, and captivate. The therapists? Artists of touch. Their hands speak a fluent language of peace.

Couples can book private suites for dual treatments. At the same time, brides are offered customised pre-wedding rituals—think reflexology, lymphatic drainage, and skin-brightening therapies that leave you luminous, not just polished.


Facilities

  • Separate male and female infinity pools with sweeping Gulf views

  • Aromatherapy steam rooms, saunas, plunge pools, and experience showers

  • Private spa suites for couples, with in-suite Jacuzzi and views that rival dreams

  • Exclusive access to bridal wellness journeys and honeymoon recovery rituals


For the Modern Bride

In the lead-up to the big day, the Talise Spa becomes more than a retreat—it’s a reset. A place to soften the edges of stress, reconnect with stillness, and step into the ceremony not just radiant… but rooted.

Our Burj Moment
We had the pleasure of visiting the Burj Al Arab Jumeirah, and it’s honestly hard to put into words how exceptional the experience was. From the moment we walked in, we were treated with such warmth and attention. The staff made us feel like old friends, and every space — from the ballroom to the private suites — was even more breathtaking in person. We toured the wedding areas, sampled the food, and even had a quiet moment in the spa overlooking the sea. It’s one of those places that stays with you — everything is thoughtful, luxurious, and surprisingly personal. If you're considering a wedding at Burj Al Arab, please note that you're not booking a venue. You're stepping into a dream, and they make sure it feels entirely your own.

Capacity + Chart images

At Burj Al Arab Jumeirah, the concept of venue capacity extends beyond mere numbers. It's about scale, presence, and how your love story fills a space. Whether you dream of an eight-guest elopement suspended above the sea or a 300-person ballroom affair dripping in crystal and candlelight, this is a venue that shapes itself around your moment, never the other way around.


The Helipad — For the Few Who Don’t Follow Tradition

Forget a red carpet. How about a landing pad 212 metres above the Gulf? This is where James Bond energy meets bridal couture. The helipad is reserved for the boldest couples — those hosting micro-weddings, symbolic ceremonies, or epic drone-filmed vow exchanges with no more than 8 guests and no fear of heights. It’s not for everyone. And that’s the point.


Al Falak Ballroom — Where Royalty Might Raise a Glass

With its Viennese opera house design, Al Falak Ballroom can host up to 250 seated guests or 300 for a standing soirée. It’s opulent. It’s theatrical. It’s the sort of place where orchestras make sense and black-tie dress codes feel relaxed. The scale is grand, but the service is still intimate — and when the chandeliers sparkle, so does every guest.


Marina Garden — Outdoor Elegance With Coastal Calm

For couples who want to breathe, who want their vows to drift on the sea breeze, Marina Garden offers a more grounded (but no less glamorous) option. You can seat around 100–150 guests on manicured lawns framed by palms and the skyline. It’s serene, romantic, and especially exquisite at golden hour when Dubai glows like candlelight.


Skyview Suites — Small Guest List, Big Impact

Perched on the 27th floor, the Suha and Tameen rooms are made for refined intimacy. Think up to 60 guests surrounded by sweeping views of the city and ocean — ideal for rehearsal dinners, welcome cocktails, or the kind of private wedding where the guest list fits in a single group photo. It’s understated, elevated, and designed for moments that feel yours.


At Burj Al Arab, capacity doesn’t limit your celebration — it shapes it into something perfectly proportioned to your story. Big or small, grand or quietly magical, the setting will never overpower the couple. It simply becomes the stage. And what a stage it is.

Pricing/Offers

When love takes flight, why not let your vows rise with it? At the Burj Al Arab Jumeirah, weddings are not simply events — they’re orchestrated dreams, suspended in the sky and stitched in gold thread. Whether you arrive by Rolls-Royce or helicopter, one thing is sure: the moment you step into this sail-shaped icon, you're not just getting married. You're entering legend.


The Helipad Ceremony — For Love That Defies Gravity

For couples with a flair for the dramatic and a taste for the extraordinary, the hotel’s world-famous helipad, perched 212 metres above the Arabian Gulf, becomes your private altar. Priced from AED 200,000 (approx. $55,000), this once-in-a-lifetime experience includes:

  • A private ceremony with the Dubai skyline as your witness

  • Arrival via AgustaWestland helicopter or bespoke Rolls-Royce Phantom

  • A multi-course tasting with the executive chef and in-house sommelier

  • A couture cake consultation with the hotel’s pastry atelier

  • Access to fashion stylists, etiquette coaching, and a luxury bridal concierge

  • Spa treatments at Talise Spa, tailored just for you

This isn’t a wedding—it’s a love story written in the sky.


Al Falak Ballroom — Imperial Splendour in the Heart of Dubai

Modelled after an 18th-century Viennese opera house, the Al Falak Ballroom is the stuff of fairytales. Sweeping staircases, crystal chandeliers, and gilt-edged columns set the scene for up to 250 seated guests. Prices are as bespoke as the celebrations themselves, but exclusive-use wedding receptions often start from AED 250,000 and above, depending on the guest count, season, and personalisation.

Here, your first dance feels like a royal waltz.


Marina Garden — Coastal Romance With a Modern Glow

For couples craving open skies and ocean air, the Marina Garden offers a serene outdoor alternative. Framed by sailboats and the shimmer of Jumeirah Beach, this setting whispers romance. Think sunset ceremonies, barefoot cocktails, and soft jazz beneath palm trees.

Prices for garden weddings start from AED 80,000, with the option to add on everything from aerial videography to custom florals flown in from Holland.


Per-Guest Packages — Where Custom Meets Couture

Tailored wedding experiences start from around AED 310 per person, but in true Burj Al Arab fashion, no two celebrations are the same. Every package is designed around your preferences, from signature canapés and couture florals to designer cutlery and curated wine pairings.

Want a poolside afterparty, a multi-day celebration, or a bridal suite overlooking the Arabian Gulf? Here, it’s not about what’s possible — it’s about what’s imaginable.


The Verdict

A wedding at Burj Al Arab Jumeirah is more than an event — it’s an entrance into a world of fantasy, craftsmanship, and couture-level attention to detail. For those who believe love deserves to be legendary, this is where unforgettable begins.

Exceptional Service

Beyond the cuisine, the Burj Al Arab Jumeirah takes pride in delivering impeccable service. From the initial tasting sessions to the final toast, the dedicated events team ensures every detail is executed flawlessly, allowing you to savour each moment of your celebration.

Venue Availability

Availability at Burj Al Arab Jumeirah is limited, exclusive, and tailored to couples seeking a truly one-of-a-kind wedding celebration. With each space offering its theatrical backdrop — from marble-drenched ballrooms to open-air terraces kissed by the Gulf breeze — dates are often reserved months, if not years, in advance.

Al Falak Ballroom

A dramatic, domed space inspired by imperial grandeur. Designed for larger weddings, it accommodates up to 300 guests in palatial style. It’s a coveted space for opulent receptions, and high-season dates tend to fill quickly.

Marina Garden

For those dreaming of a sunset ceremony framed by the ocean and skyline, the Marina Garden offers a secluded outdoor setting. Availability is seasonal and in high demand during the cooler months, specifically from October to April.

Skyview Rooms

Perched on the 27th floor, these intimate venues are ideal for chic soirées, rehearsal dinners, or private ceremonies, offering panoramic views of the city and sea. Due to their size and exclusivity, these rooms often book fast for weekday weddings and special elopements.


When to Book

Couples are encouraged to inquire at least 6 to 12 months in advance for peak season dates. For iconic experiences, such as weddings on the helipad or full property buyouts, even more lead time is recommended to allow for bespoke coordination, design, and approvals.

While some off-peak and midweek dates may still be available for the upcoming year, the most sought-after weekends and seasons are in high demand.

Rooms
