The hotel also showcases the “preciousness” of water with stunning water features, unique sculptures and appealing colour palettes. The resort has two different waterfront views: the Arabian Gulf on one side and the sheltered lagoon of Palm Jumeirah Island and the Dubai skyline on the other.

The resort will offer guests exclusive curated experiences, including swimming amongst the clouds in sky pools, water fountains that “breathe fire” and dining at celebrity chef restaurants.
