Jumeirah Marsa Al Arab: Inside Dubai’s newest luxury landmark
A superyacht-inspired masterpiece with 386 rooms, suites, and world-class dining experiences
Dubai’s hospitality scene welcomes an extraordinary new addition with the grand opening of Jumeirah Marsa Al Arab over the weekend.
Located alongside the iconic Burj Al Arab and Jumeirah Beach Hotel, this ultra-luxurious resort is poised to redefine opulence, offering a blend of world-class dining, cutting-edge wellness, and stunning ocean views.
Designed to resemble a sleek superyacht, the hotel is the latest jewel in Jumeirah Group’s crown, completing the brand’s prestigious beachfront trilogy.
Architectural brilliance
Designed by renowned architect Shaun Killa, Jumeirah Marsa Al Arab’s striking architecture takes inspiration from the graceful movement of yachts gliding across the ocean. A dramatic arch entrance perfectly frames the Burj Al Arab, welcoming guests into an elegant interior crafted by French designer Tristan Auer. The nautical theme is subtly woven throughout, with warm wooden accents, marble surfaces, and silk carpets mimicking Dubai’s signature golden-hour glow.
The resort houses 386 rooms and suites, including 303 with direct ocean views. Guests seeking ultimate exclusivity can opt for one of four penthouses or 82 private residences, each offering breathtaking marina, sea, or Burj Al Arab vistas. Premium suites feature private plunge pools, expansive terraces, and the flexibility to transform into multi-bedroom retreats.
Exquisite culinary offerings
Jumeirah Marsa Al Arab introduces a collection of over 10 world-class dining venues, each curated to take guests on a gastronomic journey. From the bold Northern Italian flavours of Rialto to the delicate Japanese artistry at Umi Kei and Kinugawa, every restaurant showcases a unique culinary identity.
Greek Mediterranean eatery Iliana offers a relaxed poolside setting, while The Bombay Club, led by Michelin-starred chef Manav Tuli, presents a refined Indian dining experience.
Beyond the hotel, the Marsa Al Arab Marina and Promenade extend the culinary scene with an array of lively restaurants and bars, including Salt, Public, and Meat the Fish. This vibrant waterfront hub enhances Dubai’s reputation as a global dining destination, offering guests a seamless blend of fine dining and social entertainment.

Jumeirah Marsa Al Arab is designed as a sanctuary for relaxation and rejuvenation.
