It's been 17 years now since the Burj Al Arab Jumeirah Hotel in Dubai swung open the doors on one of the world's most luxurious, and, now, iconic, hotels.
By some accounts, it was nicknamed the world's first ever '7-Star Hotel', it is that magnificent.
With its distinctive sail-shaped silhouette, the Burj Al Arab Jumeirah features all suites ranging from 1,800 square feet to more than 8,000 square feet, an optional chauffeur-driven Rolls-Royce, helicopter trips from an iconic helipad on top of the hotel, private beach access, a breathtaking terrace with pools and cabanas as well as some of the world's best dining venues, including the highly acclaimed Nathan Outlaw at Al Mahara.
It even includes a waterpark.
