Jumeirah announces new superyacht-inspired luxury hotel

Jumeirah Group has unveiled plans for a new ocean-inspired luxury hotel next to its iconic sailboat-inspired Burj Al Arab Jumeirah and wave-shaped Jumeirah Beach Hotel properties in Dubai.

Jumeirah Marsa Al Arab, scheduled to open in 2023, will boast an avant-garde superyacht architectural design with unmatched experiential spaces, that the luxury group claims will charter a new era for luxury hospitality.

Nestled at the tip of a peninsula at the heart of Dubai's largest private beach, the resort will feature 386 rooms and suites, and four penthouses – all offering a panoramic vista over the Arabian Sea – as well as 83 luxury hotel apartment suites.

The hotel's rooms, suites and penthouses will boast four-metre-high ceiling heights, with many rooms featuring 11-metre-wide floor-to-ceiling balcony windows, creating a sense of grandeur and space.

Guests can expect contemporary luxury interiors, spacious walk-in closets and bathrooms with a view. Unique to this resort are a collection of premium suites that follow the contour of the property, each with retractable floor-to-ceiling glass walls, framing 180° views of the spectacular Burj Al Arab Jumeirah and the resort's new superyacht marina.

The hotel's lush landscape includes green terraces and sparkling waters, with opulent gardens, complete with secluded cabana areas and pavilions.  

The resort will feature four pools – a large circular pool, a spacious family infinity pool, a private VIP adult pool, and a panoramic pool will be situated within the Spa & Fitness facilities, which will cover more than 3,500 square metres over three floors and will offer a range of bespoke services with fantastic views of Burj Al Arab Jumeirah.

Jumeirah Marsa Al Arab will feature more than ten curated restaurants and bars, designed by internationally acclaimed restaurant designers with a focus on social-led dining experiences, , including a new concept comprising four restaurants in one.

Jumeirah Marsa Al Arab forms part of a wider development spearheaded by Dubai Holding, which spans more than 160,000 square metres of reclaimed land, includes an exclusive collection of exceptional ocean-facing six-bedroom marina villas and a new state-of-the-art 83 berth superyacht marina and boardwalk.
