The Original Red Light

This sprawling penthouse towers over Dubai, with gorgeous views from the wrap-around balcony. You'll have your own billiards, poker, and foosball tables here, not to mention a bar and multiple living areas. There's also a range of shared amenities to take advantage of, including a fitness centre and two resort-style swimming pools on the 5th and 45th floors. Right in the heart of downtown, we think it's ideal for family getaways or corporate trips, with the beaches and shops within easy reach. For an extra touch of excitement, your host can help arrange a variety of excursions and activities for an additional fee.

Home truths:
*You'll have six designated spaces in the building's car park to park for free.
*This home is in an apartment building, so you can expect to bump into other residents of the building during your stay and there is a chance you might hear some outside noise from neighbours.
*The two swimming pools, hot tub, children's playground, fitness centre and tennis court are all shared with other guests in the building.
*While the home can sleep up to ten people, the maximum occupancy is eight guests.
*Some housekeeping is provided here.
*There are security cameras in the building, but these are only in communal areas.
