Anantara arrives on the Palm Jumeirah
Bangkok-based Anantara Hotels, Resorts & Spas’ first hotel in Dubai – Anantara Dubai Palm Jumeirah Resort & Spa – will open in September.
The 293-room five star resort is located on the crescent of Dubai’s Palm Jumeirah.
Minor International, the owning company of Anantara, has partnered for the development with Dubai-based hospitality and real estate developer Seven Tides.
Anantara Dubai Palm Jumeirah Resort & Spa will complement Anantara’s three existing properties in Abu Dhabi: Qasr Al Sarab Desert Resort by Anantara, which is positioned in the world’s largest uninterrupted sand desert; Desert Islands Resort & Spa by Anantara, located on Sir Bani Yas Island, and Eastern Mangroves Hotel & Spa in Abu Dhabi City.
Bill Heinecke, chairman and CEO of Minor International, said the first Anantara property in Dubai is a significant milestone for Minor. "This new resort strengthens our footprint in the key strategic market of the UAE and I am confident it will greatly contribute to our success there."
Abdulla Bin Sulayem, CEO, Seven Tides, said Anantara was chosen "after a lengthy selection process involving a number of international management companies".
"The resort and spa is primarily a leisure and incentive destination and will appeal to visitors from the GCC, Asia and of course the traditional inbound European markets," he said.
