Leading regional luxury real estate developer Damac Properties today (April 25) announced that it will open two ultra-luxurious hotels in Dubai in the coming months.

Opening in May, the plush 250-key Damac Maison Bay’s Edge - strategically located in Business Bay - is a gateway to “the ultimate luxury”, service and opulent experience, with views over the dazzling Dubai skyline and Downtown Dubai.

Spread across 22 floors, this hotel offers refined living in spacious deluxe rooms, one, two and three-bedroom suites with exceptional services and privacy. The luxurious hotel provides the perfect blend of business, leisure and entertainment and offers complimentary shuttle bus services to Dubai’s key attractions.

The central feature of the courtyard at Damac Maison Bay’s Edge is the temperature-controlled swimming pool where guests can relax and rejuvenate. Children can enjoy at the shaded outdoor kid’s pool and play areas. The gymnasium is located on the same floor and is equipped with high-tech machines. Additionally, the hotel also offers separate ladies and gents wellness areas, each housing a jacuzzi, sauna, steam room, showers, lockers and changing rooms.

The June, the new ultra-luxury five-star Damac Maison Royale The Distinction - to be operated by Damacs’s premium hotel operator Damac Maison Royale - will provide luxury hospitality and accommodation where guests can indulge in a unique leisure and relaxation experience in the city of dreams.

Located in Dubai’s Downtown district and boasting stunning views from each of its 52 floors, the 305-key Damac Maison Royale The Distinction will offer a choice of fully serviced deluxe rooms as well as one-, two- and three-bedroom suites that are complemented by a full kitchen. The five-star property’s amenities, including spa, recreational facilities, health club, amongst others, will ensure guests enjoy their stay at this five-star haven on the Dubai skyline and at the centre of the city’s major attractions.

Other attractive features of the property include the kids club, offering a wide range of activities that ensure an unforgettable stay for younger guests. Furthermore, Casper & Gambini’s will offer the finest international cuisines and culinary delights served in a relaxed atmosphere, with exceptional service.

Niall McLoughlin, senior vice president, Damac Properties said: “Dubai has recently reached the 100,000-room mark and has been ranked ninth among the top 10 cities with the largest supply of hotel rooms in the world. Moreover, Dubai is poised for tremendous growth and in the next three to four years, a number of changes are culminating in the lead up to Expo 2020. There is no doubt that Dubai will go from strength to strength as the city continues to develop for the future and attract more tourists to meet the growing supply of hotels. Therefore, investments in the hospitality sector within strategic locations represent one of the cornerstones of this growth.”

According to the Department of Tourism and Commerce Marketing, Dubai attracted 14.9 million overnight visitors in 2016, registering a 5 per cent increase over 2015, and 8 per cent CAGR (2012-2016) since His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of UAE and Ruler of Dubai, launched the 2020 tourism strategy.

A rise in the number of millennials globally is also compelling the hospitality and tourism industry players to mould their offerings based on behaviour, purchasing power, and interest areas of this generation. - TradeArabia News Service
