Accomodations

The Wedding Website of Yassin Fares and Elizabeth Snoddon
There are several options for accommodation. Bab Al Shams Resort is approximately a 45-minute drive from Dubai Marina and a 50-minute drive from Jumeirah Beach. If you prefer to stay in the heart of Dubai, we recommend Dubai Marina, JBR, or Jumeirah Beach—these areas are the closest to the wedding venue. If you are not staying at Bab Al Shams, we highly recommend booking an Airbnb for better value for money—just make sure it has a pool. The Bride and Groom are also happy to share recommendations—just reach out! Complimentary transportation will be provided, with 1 scheduled pick-up from Meydan and Dubai Marina and return drop-offs to both locations in the evenings.

Travel Note

Dubai Marina

A vibrant waterfront district filled with restaurants, cafes, and nightlife, Dubai Marina offers stunning skyline and yacht views. You’ll be steps from the Marina Walk and close to shopping at Marina Mall. It’s lively, walkable, and about 45 minutes from Bab Al Shams, making it a great base for guests who want plenty to do before and after the wedding.

Travel Note

JBR (Jumeirah Beach Residence)

JBR (Jumeirah Beach Residence) Known for its beachfront promenade, JBR combines resort-style living with easy access to shops, dining, and watersports. You can relax on the public beach during the day and enjoy open-air dining in the evening. Like Dubai Marina, it’s around 45 minutes from Bab Al Shams and offers a mix of hotels and serviced apartments.

Travel Note

The Palm Jumeirah

The Palm Jumeirah One of Dubai’s most iconic landmarks, the Palm Jumeirah is a luxury island community known for its upscale resorts, private beaches, and spectacular views of the Dubai skyline. Staying here means you’ll have world-class dining, beach clubs, and spas right at your doorstep. While it’s a bit farther from the wedding venue—about 55 minutes from Bab Al Shams—it offers a truly indulgent Dubai experience.

Travel Note

Jumeirah Beach

Jumeirah Beach A more relaxed coastal area lined with luxury resorts and boutique hotels, Jumeirah Beach offers long stretches of sand, high-end dining, and views of the Burj Al Arab. It’s quieter than Marina or JBR but still central, and is roughly 50 minutes from Bab Al Shams. Perfect if you want a balance of city access and beachside tranquility.

House Or Rental

Airbnb

Why Airbnb? Airbnb often offers more affordable rates than hotels, with the added bonus of extra space—perfect for relaxing between events or sharing with friends and family. Many come with full kitchens, living areas, and pools, giving you a more comfortable and home-like stay for less.
