"In line with Dubai's Tourism Vision 2020, Dubai needs to have close to 160,000 hotel rooms to host the targeted numbers of visitors anticipated by the year 2020. With this as a key driver, Meraas is expanding its portfolio in the hospitality industry, developing projects that will not only add to the number of rooms in Dubai but also bring in a new dimension of luxury and experience to the hospitality industry in the country. We are happy to partner with Nikki Beach and Resorts to introduce a new concept that will enrich the offering in Dubai," said Cherif Hosny, Chief Hospitality Officer, Meraas Holding.
Inspired by the design vision of Jack Penrod, Nikki Beach Resort & Spa Dubai has been designed in collaboration with DSA Architects International with interiors by Gatserelia Design. The luxurious 5 star resort will be conveniently located on Pearl Jumeira, a reclaimed island positioned to become an elite address for beachfront peninsula living, catering to individuals who enjoy the seclusion of an island, yet remain connected to the hustle of the city. Pearl Jumeira is just minutes away from downtown Dubai and the business & financial districts and only 15 minutes away from Dubai International Airport.
The global luxury lifestyle & hospitality brand currently has 12 locations around the world.
