Nestled within a 64-hectare estate, the equestrian-themed Meliá Desert Palm Hotel has unveiled its newly refreshed poolside restaurant Epicure, a reimagined all-day dining destination that blends contemporary design with international cuisine amidst the resort’s peaceful embrace.
Designed by Spanish interior designer Pol Domenech Simo, the space captures the serenity of the desert with plush earthy tones while embracing a modern aesthetic enriched by Arab and Mediterranean influences.
Elegant finishes and minimalist furniture add sophistication, combined with subtle touches of wood, marble and warm metals that evoke a welcoming atmosphere. Guests can expect a refined dining destination, seamlessly blending Levantine Mediterranean flavours in a sophisticated, all-day dining experience, by the resort’s glimmering infinity pool and Spanish-inspired alfresco terrace.
In line with the interior refresh, Epicure’s menu has also been upgraded to ensure that social gatherings and poolside relaxation celebrate gastronomic diversity. With authentic Mediterranean and rich Levantine flavours, diners will delight in high-quality ingredients that are blended with traditional cooking techniques to deliver an exceptional dining experience.
Whether indulging in the comfort of the restaurant’s elegant interiors or basking in the serenity of the poolside, guests are invited to savour a delightful array of Spanish, Italian, and local classics, freshly prepared in the newly launched wood-fired pizza oven. Feast on succulent rotisserie chicken or dive into generous sharing platters brimming with premium grilled meats—perfectly charred Lamb Chops, flavourful Kebabs, tender Shish Tawouk, and mouthwatering seafood, including the freshest Greek sea bass, jumbo prawns, and lobster.
From 7:00am to 11:00am, guests can begin their day with an exceptional selection of international breakfast offerings, from beloved Arabic classics to continental delights. Start the morning right with signature dishes like rich, flavourful shakshuka, indulgent truffled toast, creamy oatmeal porridge, or perfectly fluffy sweet buttermilk pancakes. Whether seeking a nourishing start or a decadent treat, each dish is crafted to energise and delight, setting the tone for a day of unforgettable experiences.
For those seeking a truly unforgettable stay, the resort offers a tranquil escape with elegant rooms and villas, designed to feel like a home away from home. Guests can unwind with soothing wellness treatments at the serene Samana Spa or enjoy the resort’s exceptional recreational facilities, including a steam room, sauna, state-of-the-art ice room, and refreshing cold pool, ensuring total relaxation and rejuvenation.
