Zaya Nurai IslandA ten-minute boat ride from Abu Dhabi’s Saadiyat Island, this is, without doubt, one of the most luxurious beach resorts in the Middle East. Water villas at Zaya Nurai offer views of the turquoise sea, while beach houses boast private pools, exclusive outdoor lounges and log burners. No surprise, then, that the resort has a fiercely loyal following of hard-working Emiratis looking for a chilled, seaside retreat from the city. We imagine the five-star service and Michelin-star worthy dining are also a draw – not to mention that most rare of metropolitan commodities: peace.

The Hard Rock Hotel at Universal Orlando has unveiled Future Rock Star suites. The two-room suites include a lighted stage, a twinkling starlight canopy over beds and authentic memorabilia from today's stars.
"The suites bring that dream to life for the entire family with everything a true rock star needs to put on an unforgettable show. Plus, we brought in pieces of Hard Rock's priceless memorabilia collection to amplify the experience of staying in these one-of-a-kind suites," says Carlton Hudson, managing director at Hard Rock Hotel at Universal Orlando.
With Hard Rock's Sound of Your Stay amenity, available for an additional charge, guests can jam out on a selection of Fender guitars or spin records on a Crosley turntable.
The Hard Rock Hotel is connected to the three Universal theme parks by water taxi, short walk or shuttle bus ride. Guests also enjoy free Universal Express Unlimited ride access and one-hour early admission to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter and Universal's Volcano Bay waterpark.
