A new Hilton resort will be part of the Dh12-billion ($3.2 billion) development plan announced by UAE-based Miral, which oversees the development of Yas Island.

Scheduled to open in 2019, the Hilton Abu Dhabi Yas Island Resort will be located at Yas Bay, near the 18,000-capacity Yas Arena. The resort’s facilities will include a multi-purpose conference centre, seven dining outlets and an innovative urban beach concept with an infinity pool suspended above the waters of the Arabian Gulf.

BR Kiran, the chief portfolio officer of Miral, said: “We are proud to announce our partnership with Hilton which represents another milestone in our journey to establish Yas Island as a top global destination. The creation of a world-class family resort at the heart of Yas Bay, our iconic waterfront development, will provide visitors with a five-star opportunity to extend their leisure and business stays and enjoy the unique attractions and memorable experiences that only Yas Island can offer.”
