Viceroy

TL;DR: FIVE Palm Jumeirah (formerly Viceroy Palm Jumeirah) by FIVE Holdings is a completed ultra-luxury residential and hotel landmark on the trunk of Palm Jumeirah, Dubai. Completed in November 2016, the 20-storey development houses 698 units — 477 hotel rooms/suites, 221 private furnished residences, and 6 beach villas. The property features 5 outdoor swimming pools including a signature 55-metre Social Pool, a 150-metre private beach, the award-winning ReFIVE Spa with 10 treatment rooms, a 350+ sq. m. gym, 10 restaurants and lounges, the HIGH FIVE Kids Club, and direct water sports access. ## Overview FIVE Palm Jumeirah — originally opened as Viceroy Palm Jumeirah Dubai on March 31, 2017, before being rebranded to FIVE Palm Jumeirah on June 19, 2017 — is a spectacular ultra-luxury residential and hotel development situated at No. 1 The Palm, on the trunk of the iconic Palm Jumeirah. Architecturally designed by P&T Architects & Engineers Ltd with interior design by the acclaimed Yabu Pushelberg and Nao Taniyama & Associates, the building rises 20 storeys in a distinctive U-shaped amphitheater form that steps up from the beachfront through a series of elegant setbacks, creating an open courtyard at its center that hosts the property's spectacular outdoor amenities. ## Building Structure The development comprises 698 total units: 477 hotel rooms and suites positioned toward the center of the building, 221 fully furnished private residences arranged in the two symmetrical wings, and 6 exclusive beach villas at ground level along the 150-metre private beachfront. Two identical architectural wings are separated by an imposing arched gate, with a horizontal swimming pool creating a seemingly aquatic corridor between them. A central glass cube entry measuring 15 metres x 15 metres contains a sculptural wood installation inspired by both Islamic architectural traditions and DNA strands. Each residential level features private terraces oriented outward toward the beach and Arabian Gulf waterfront. The architectural design emphasizes natural materials — wood, stone, and abundant plantings — combined with water features throughout, creating an "island lifestyle" aesthetic that distinguishes FIVE from the more conventional luxury towers on Palm Jumeirah. ## Unit Types & Pricing The private residences offer an extraordinary range of configurations spanning from compact studios to palatial beach villas.
