Master Sweet: Dubai

Overlooking well-kempt fairways and lakes, this apartment shows that an interior doesn't have to go overboard to be considered luxurious. The design throughout is quite subtle, with an emphasis on clean lines, glossy surfaces and chic furnishings. It certainly helps that there are ample amounts of natural light from the floor-to-ceiling windows.

We should also mention that guests opting for this home will also get access to a fabulous range of communal amenities. This includes an outdoor swimming pool open year-round and a garden, as well as a gym, business centre and restaurant — every base covered, then.

It's almost enough to make you forget that one of the world's most vibrant cities sits just outside your door. Dubai Marina is only twenty-five minutes away on foot, as is Barasti Beach (or a seven-minute drive). If the view out the window proves too tempting, you can be parked up outside Emirates Golf Club in three minutes' drive.
