TUMBI HOTEL DUBAI THE PALM, TAPESTRY COLLECTION BY HILTON, MARKS ONE YEAR OF WELLNESS-LED HOSPITALITY

As TUMBI Hotel Dubai The Palm, Tapestry Collection by Hilton marks its first anniversary, the milestone reflects a year of steady growth, considered decision-making, and a clear commitment to wellness-led living on Palm West Beach. Since opening, the hotel has established itself as an alcohol-free lifestyle destination that prioritizes balance, flexibility, and meaningful guest experiences.
A Location Designed for Ease
With private beach access, flexible check-in and check-out options, and calm, contemporary interiors, TUMBI Hotel Dubai The Palm appeals to modern travelers seeking comfort without excess. Thoughtfully designed rooms and shared spaces allow guests to slow down, reset, and experience the city at their own pace.
Wellness at the Heart of the Stay
“Wellbeing is central to the TUMBI experience. From restorative treatments at SUKOON Spa and a fully equipped fitness centre to the rooftop infinity pool overlooking the Arabian Gulf and Dubai skyline, we offer spaces designed to support both physical and mental renewal. Our environment encourages a balanced stay, where rest and restoration are part of the guest journey, reflecting a broader shift in traveller priorities towards rest, clarity, and intentional living,” says Babar Khanyari, General Manager of TUMBI Hotel Dubai The Palm, Tapestry Collection by Hilton
Food That’s Honest, Accessible and Full of Flavour
Food and beverage has been a defining pillar in the hotel’s first year. The dining philosophy centres on flavor, consistency, and accessibility, offering dishes that are satisfying, well-priced, and thoughtfully prepared. This approach is reflected across the hotel’s dining experiences, from the recently relaunched dEATox Café, which champions wellness-forward, nourishing cuisine without compromising on taste, and Afia, the hotel’s all-day dining restaurant, serving comforting international favorites alongside wholesome options from breakfast through dinner. Together, the venues reinforce the belief that mindful dining can remain enjoyable, inclusive, and rooted in everyday pleasure rather than restriction.
A People-First Culture
At the heart of TUMBI Hotel Dubai The Palm’s success is its team and a leadership approach rooted in trust, respect, and shared purpose. The hotel’s culture emphasizes belonging, wellbeing, and growth, recognizing colleagues as custodians of the guest experience rather than simply service providers.
“Hospitality only works when people feel genuinely cared for, both guests and the teams who serve them,” says Babar Khanyari, General Manager of TUMBI Hotel Dubai The Palm, Tapestry Collection by Hilton. “When colleagues feel supported, heard and proud of where they work, that sense of care naturally carries through to every guest interaction. Our role as leaders is to create clarity, stability and an environment where people can do their best work.”
Recognition and Industry Momentum
Over the past year, TUMBI Hotel Dubai The Palm has earned multiple industry acknowledgements and award recognitions, reflecting its growing credibility across hospitality and F&B platforms and its resonance with today’s discerning travelers
Looking Ahead
As it enters its second year, TUMBI Hotel Dubai The Palm will further strengthen its wellness-led offering, expanding experiences that support mindful, balanced living. Upcoming initiatives include beachfront yoga sessions on the hotel’s private beach and enhanced wellness-focused meal plans at dEATox Café, designed to complement guests’ health and lifestyle goals. Building on the foundation of its first year, TUMBI remains committed to evolving as a destination centred on wellbeing, ease, and intentional living by the shore.
