Jumeirah Marsa Al Arab is Dubai’s 5-Star luxury hotel with 408 key rooms located on a reclaimed peninsular to the east of the iconic Burj Al Arab Hotel and Jumeirah Beach Hotel.

The development also includes a deluxe branded hotel apartment, four super penthouses, a premium yacht club and marina with 128 berths, nine high-end villas, and an extensive resort landscaped with infinity pools and private beaches.

The design for Jumeirah Marsa Al Arab is inspired by the subtle nautical references derived from the grandeur of the world’s ultra-yachts. The form reflects the notion of standing on the top deck of a yacht.

The ‘shift’ in the length of the hotel responds to the reclaimed peninsular between the private extended beach and the new marina, creating an opportunity for generous drop-offs, in addition to a large 4-storey vertical opening in the building that frames the clear and uninterrupted views of the surrounding. The shift splits the building into the landward F&B and spa zones, and the seaward hotel guest-rooms, ensuring the privacy and exclusiveness for the most discerning guests.

At grade level, off the neighboring roads, the hotel incorporates BOH services, undercover car parking, a marina, a private beach and luscious landscapes. In the upper ground level, the hotel includes the formal arrival experience, which leads to the drop-off for the hotel lobby and F&B outlets. The hotel features 12 levels of 387 sea-facing guest-rooms with wide balconies designed to provide the guests with a harmonious feeling of the interior spaces extending towards the exterior. The upper crown floors include four exclusive penthouses, each with an area of 650 m2. The combinations of simplex, duplex and triplex apartments include private pools on their vast balcony decks, providing the residents with ultimate privacy and uninterrupted views of Burj Al Arab, the Arabian Gulf, and Dubai’s new picturesque marina.
