The feeling inside is like being inside a sailboat with tightly inflated sails, and the wind, as it should be in fairy tales, blows from all sides at once, funny puffing your painted cheeks and blinking fluffy curled eyelashes.
Initially, the inside of the hotel was snow-white. (By the way, I would like to look at that first option, it must have been beautiful, and light, and all kinds of whiteness, from icy crisp to warm milky cream. ) But a month and a half before the opening, the sheikh came and asked why. “So the sail is the same, ” the architects and designers, polishing the final finish, were surprised.
The Sheikh, of course, read Green's Scarlet Sails.
I couldn't just stop reading, I understand this when you look at the hotel. He knew that all the miracles in the world are done by hand. When you see a dream with your inner eye, you adjust reality to fit it without any pity, because a dream is stronger than any reality.
“We are changing everything, ” he said. Recoloring, adding a lot of gold, red, blue and fun.
And what was left for designers to do after that? - Wash away, as if from a canvas, from reality everything that they have been working on for a year or more, and very quickly create something new and completely different.
I absolutely agree that the interiors of the hotel are too "heavy". But with those who see only mirrors on the ceiling and gold in Burj Al Arab (and half a ton was spent there, it seems) - I have nothing to talk about with them. It is interesting for me to talk with those who see the game and the fairy tale. Reads allusions, references, layers and historical styles.
An amazing breakthrough into freedom, into flight, into a dream - that's what Sail is (And not gold and diamonds, as many people think). And the fact that he demanded so much strength is not surprising, miracles happen only this way: buy three thousand meters of scarlet silk, sew it, launch a ship under scarlet sails, and let it sail into the bay where the girl is waiting!
Contingent net: Gucci, Armani, Versache wearers and Ferrari, Bentley, Porsche drivers.
Rooms. Only two-story suites with several rooms, several bathrooms, panoramic windows, and of course gold-marble sanitary ware.
Beach. Only 2 pools (with fresh and sea water) on the platform. There is no entrance to the sea. You can use the beach of the neighboring hotel "Volna" Jumeirah Beach, if you go outside and leave the territory.
The hotel feels like it's been refurbished. Design and cost no longer correspond to modern trends in the hotel business.
Ideal for underlining the status of business trips, for a romantic dinner or for an antler stag/hen party.
